Capella Hanoi
Located in the heart of the French Quarter, just around the corner from the famous Opera House, is the magnificent boutique hotel Capella Hanoi. The design is entirely by Bill Bensley, who aimed to tell the story of the Opera House and its colorful performers of the past.
Thanks to its prime location, you can easily walk to Hoan Kiem Lake or to the slightly further Old Quarter. As soon as you step inside the hotel, you are transported to another world. Stroll through the hallways to admire the memorabilia, relax in the impressive indoor pool, or book a massage at the award-winning Auriga Spa. Take your time for a sparkling dinner at the Backstage Restaurant and end the day with an exotic 1920s cocktail in Diva’s Lounge.

These suites are also extravagantly decorated with various details reminiscent of the theater. The Terrace Opera Suite has a spacious seating area, the Classic Opera Suite has a separate lounge and dining room with a full bar. The even more spacious Royal Opera Suite has two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and also features both a freestanding bath on the outdoor terrace and in the main bathroom.

On the terrace, you can sit comfortably and enjoy the view or take a bath in the Jacuzzi bathtub.

Enjoy a delicious breakfast here and order a good cup of single-origin coffee at the bar. Savor a Vietnamese lunch or grilled dishes. In the evening, a high-quality 4-course menu is served here.
Step back in time to New York in the 1920s, when the nightlife was already lively and full of glamour. The Hudson Rooms introduces you to explosive flavors and unique pairings. Enjoy bistro-style dining with extravagant extras.
The refined art-deco Diva’s Lounge evokes bygone days of classical opera. Take a seat inside or outside and enjoy exclusive cocktails and delicious Vietnamese-style tapas. For something entirely different, visit Koki, dedicated to the artistic Japanese cuisine. Here, you can dine in private rooms or sign up for the Chef’s Table, with only 14 seats, where you can experience the passion of chef Yoshida. Or try unique drinks and flavors at the Sake Bar.
Wellness and Spa

Activities
Capella Hanoi aims not only to bring the culture of the opera of yesteryear to life but also to introduce you to other heritages of traditional Hanoi. You can learn pottery the traditional way with an artist in a typical pottery village just outside Hanoi. Or immerse yourself in the centuries-old art of traditional lacquerware by taking a workshop with a graduate expert in this field.
Swimming pool
Capella Hanoi offers La Grotta, an extravagant indoor swimming pool. Here, you can also relax on the comfortable loungers. Additionally, you can enjoy a sauna and steam bath.
Sustainability
During the construction of Capella Hanoi, sustainability was already a key consideration. The hotel was built to be as energy-efficient as possible, and energy consumption continues to be minimized, along with waste. They collaborate with several charitable projects to give back to the Vietnamese community.
