ANTD.VN - The prestigious DestinAsian magazine recently named Capella Hanoi of Sun Group as the leading position in the top 10 "Best City Hotels in Vietnam".
The list of 10 best city hotels in Vietnam is part of the Readers' Choice Awards 2024 by DestinAsian - an extremely prestigious travel and lifestyle magazine for travel enthusiasts around the world.
In this list, Capella Hanoi - a masterpiece of architect Bill Bensley and Sun Group - has won the highest position. In 2021, Capella Hanoi was also included in The Luxe List of this magazine.
According to DestinAsian experts, what makes a great hotel different is the perfect design combined with upgraded facilities. It must be a place that gives guests a new perspective on a familiar scene. And Capella Hanoi is the perfect choice for the top spot on the list of “Best City Hotels in Vietnam”.

Located at 11 Le Phung Hieu, on the most beautiful street of Hanoi, Sun Group's first boutique hotel features unique Art Nouveau and Art Deco architecture, recreating a luxurious inn for famous artists and composers during the golden age of Opera in the 1920s. This is also the first hotel operated by the Capella brand in Vietnam, designed by architect Bill Bensley, the mastermind behind Capella Ubud Bali, which won the World's Best Hotel award in 2020.

Stepping into the hotel, guests can feel the classic architecture of the 1920s with its luxurious and sophisticated beauty, combined with reliefs and murals completely handcrafted by Vietnamese artisans, expressing indigenous culture in a subtle way.

In particular, the hotel's 47 rooms are named after world-famous actors, singers, and screenwriters of this era such as Sarah Bernhardt, Eleonora Duse, Lina Cavalieri... or legendary operas such as Madama Butterfly, Turando, Scheherazade to remind us of the "glorious" past of this noble art form. Each room has a collection of artworks or memorabilia according to the theme of each room, making visitors feel like they are lost in a miniature museum right in the heart of the capital.

In addition to its unique architecture, one of the things that makes Capella Hanoi especially attractive to tourists is its extremely unique and diverse culinary style. In the first announcement of Michelin Guide in Hanoi, Capella Hanoi is not only the only hotel in Vietnam to own a 1-star Michelin restaurant - Hibana by Koki (serving Japanese Teppanyaki cuisine), but also has 2 other restaurants honored in the Michelin Selected list (restaurants selected and recommended by Michelin to try) including Backstage (serving cuisine with a strong Northern Vietnamese style) and Izakaya by Koki (serving a diverse Japanese culinary style - Izakaya).
Shortly after that in July, the prestigious American news agency CNN listed Capella Hanoi with Hibana by Koki in the top 20 hotels with the best Michelin-starred restaurants in the world. According to experts, it is very rare for a hotel restaurant to achieve a Michelin star, so the fact that Hibana by Koki has achieved this, after only 3 years of operation, is truly a miracle.

Since its official launch, Sun Group's exceptionally luxurious boutique hotel has been continuously honored by international award organizations and media. In early June 2023, Travel + Leisure announced that Capella Hanoi was voted the best city hotel in Vietnam. The World Travel Awards Asia 2022 honored Capella Hanoi as "Asia's Leading Luxury Boutique Hotel" and soon after that, the hotel continued to be praised by the New York Times (USA) as one of the 10 most outstanding new hotels in Asia. And right after its launch in April 2022, after only two months, Travel + Leisure named Capella Hanoi one of the "100 best new hotels in the world". Being continuously praised and honored by the Tourism Organization and the world's leading newspapers has helped affirm Capella Hanoi's position and class that are difficult to surpass.
