Capella Hanoi
An urban oasis that is flamboyant and decadent, Capella Hanoi is one of Hanoi’s most talked‑about luxury hotels.
The Hotel
Capturing the essence of the Hanoi Opera House and the golden age of opera and jazz in the 1920s, Capella Hanoi was designed exclusively by famed designer Bill Bensley. Extravagant at every turn, a stay here is a sensory experience. Rich velvets, bold colour, detailed murals and operatic memorabilia are woven throughout the hotel. Every room tells its own story, with each named and themed after opera performers, composers and designers. Premier Rooms have exquisite French balconies overlooking Hanoi’s vibrant streets or the Opera House, while the expansive Grand Opera Suites combine Eastern and Western motifs, and benefit from terraces with iconic city views.
Amenities & experiences
You mightn’t leave this whimsical and enchanting address, as it promises everything you need for a truly decadent stay. Lounge on the daybeds in La Grotta Indoor Pool – an art-filled, opera-influenced space with mirrored ceilings and bold geometric tiles. Relax in the Auriga Spa, where experiences inspired by celestial rhythms based on lunar phases, and a sauna, steam room, fitness centre, and bespoke wellness treatments are on offer too.
Dining & drinking
The hotel has four distinct dining venues. Backstage is its signature restaurant, indulging guests with a theatrical dining experience serving up innovative Northern Vietnamese cuisine within a captivating setting of vintage stage costumes and custom tableware art. Head to the rooftop for oysters, caviar and cocktails at The Hudson Rooms – an ambient bar inspired by 1920s New York and Grand Central Terminal – named one of Asia’s Best Bars. Koki & Hibana by Koki is the hotel’s Michelin-recognised Japanese dining destination. And Diva’s Lounge is a sultry and intimate space, perfect for small plates and cocktails.
