Luxurious theater inn in the heart of Hanoi

In honor of Capella Hanoi, writer Vincent Vichit-Vadakan described this hotel as “full of drama”. Capella Hanoi is located on Le Phung Hieu Street, just a few steps from the Hanoi Opera House, making this street full of the breath of chamber art.

The artistry of Capella Hanoi also lies in the fact that this hotel owns 47 rooms with completely different names and designs, named after actors, opera singers, set designers and famous plays of the golden age of Opera in the 1920s. Therefore, every time you return, you can immerse yourself in a new world of luxury and sophistication without repetition. Every night, in the hotel lobby, you can also immerse yourself in the enchanting singing of divas.

Every guest here has the privilege of feeling like a famous artist when sipping a cocktail at Diva's Lounge, leisurely posing in the paparazzi corridor leading to Backstage restaurant - with a giant red curtain inspired by the stage wings, or relaxing in the La Grotta warm water pool like a resting paradise for the voices of superstars.

Michelin-starred cuisine

In addition to the sophisticated design of a luxurious theater inn by architect Bill Bensley, the reason Capella Hanoi was honored also comes from the diverse restaurant system, from the "penthouse" The Hudson Rooms to the restaurants that were just honored by Michelin Guide on the evening of June 6. Among them, Hibana by Koki achieved 1 Michelin star, Backstage restaurant and Izakaya by Koki were on the Michelin Selected list (restaurants selected and recommended by Michelin to try).

Capella Hanoi is currently the only hotel in Vietnam to have 3 Michelin-recognized restaurants. In the world, this is also one of the few hotels to do this.

The 1 Michelin-starred restaurant - Hibana by Koki located in the basement of the hotel is the first high-end restaurant in the capital to bring the art of Japanese Teppanyaki cuisine to diners, led by Chef Yamaguchi and Chef Consultant Yoshida Junichi - the world's first 1 Michelin-starred chef in the art of Teppanyaki. The art of Teppanyaki at Hibana by Koki is like a journey of the senses, through the delicate flavors of Japan, meticulously prepared and served in private rooms, with a traditional sake bar and the chef's Teppanyaki table.

Teppanyaki cuisine takes visitors on a journey of the senses, as they witness the chef preparing the food directly.

Mr. Dennis Laubenstein, General Manager of Capella Hanoi Hotel shared about the honor of being honored by Travel + Leisure: “We are very pleased that over the past year, the hotel has been well received by the travel community who love luxury travel experiences.” Dennis Laubenstein was also honored to be voted the 2nd best hotel General Manager in Vietnam by the sophisticated and demanding readers of Travel + Leisure, helping Capella Hanoi win double at Luxury Awards Asia Pacific this year.

This is not the first time Capella Hanoi has been honored by Travel + Leisure. In June 2022, Capella Hanoi was the only Vietnamese hotel named in the list of “100 best new hotels in the world”. This has affirmed the class of Capella Hanoi when within just one year since its opening, the hotel quickly rose to the top position in the list of “city hotels”.
