Situated in a prime location on Le Phung Hieu Street, near Hoan Kiem Lake, the Opera House and other historic architectural works of the capital, Capella Hanoi is an art nouveau masterpiece, honoring the beauty of 20th-century Opera houses. The hotel was designed by world-renowned architect Bill Bensley.

Home for divas
As soon as you step into the lobby, you are immediately attracted by four tall statues, named Carotids by artist Bill Bensley, located right in the elevator lobby. This is a typical welcome gate architecture in the golden age of grand theaters.
Four statues with ancient architectural style attract all eyes
Classical art and architecture are present in every aspect of the hotel. Capella Hanoi takes guests back in time to the 20th century Opera Houses, where the leading divas of their time gathered.
The Diva's Lounge bar exudes classic charm. The Bordeaux red curtain surrounding the stage blends harmoniously with the red velvet and gold wooden interior, creating a lyrical space that captivates cocktail and music addicts.
Legendary divas are creative inspiration for cocktails
The drinks are uniquely mixed, inspired by the stories of opera divas. In addition, visitors can enjoy typical snacks and immerse themselves in classic opera music.
The next highlight is the restaurant called Backstage. The decorations here are chests, costumes, mirrors, props... reminiscent of the artist's waiting room, behind the velvet curtain - where artists gather, put on makeup and prepare to shine with their performance.
Backstage Restaurant is considered the pride of Capella Hanoi
Luxurious and elegant Backstage space
Here, under the talented hands of the chef, the restaurant's menu is inspired by the specialties of Northern Vietnam. Vegan dishes are prepared from fresh local ingredients, combined with modern cooking techniques.
Enjoy the artistic space inside Capella Hanoi
Capella Hanoi has 47 rooms and suites, all with balconies. Each room in the hotel is individually designed and features the name of a famous artist or their legendary story. The artist portraits are painted by the famous artist Kate Spencer.
Ms. Le Minh Phuong, CEO of Travellive, shared her experience at Capella Hanoi: "I am a lover of contemporary architectural style, in harmony with nature. But the neoclassical style interwoven with cultural elements at Capella Hanoi made me very satisfied. Among many 5-star hotels in the capital, Capella still brings its own unique style."

At the basement of Capella Hanoi, visitors can experience the services at Auriga Spa in a space designed with bold Asian royal decorative details. This is a place that brings absolute relaxation with modern spa techniques combined with natural ingredients.
Although it is a hotel in the old town area, Auriga Spa has a full gym, sauna, treatment room, swimming pool designed lavishly and sophisticatedly. Especially the La Grotta indoor swimming pool with a design inspired by an oasis. If you are a lover of Cubist paintings, you definitely cannot miss this Art Deco style swimming pool, with an interesting optical illusion effect created by three colors: white, black and turquoise.
The tranquility that pervades Auriga Spa brings a sense of gentleness, soothing all senses.
The buildings inside the hotel all have the influence of Art Deco architecture.
The Capella Hanoi team shared that although the room rates are not "affordable", the hotel is always fully booked and the waiting list is quite long. In particular, Capella is very attractive to artists because of its cultural story and way of expression.
With modern facilities, exquisite service and unique architecture, Capella Hanoi is now a dream destination for domestic and foreign tourists, especially those who love the art space in the heart of the capital.
