Capella Hanoi is a 47-room luxury hotel at 11 Le Phung Hieu Street, a few steps from the Hanoi Opera House and Hoan Kiem Lake. It opened in April 2021 and was designed throughout by Bill Bensley as a homage to the opera world of 1920s Hanoi, with every room themed on a performer, composer or designer. It has won a long list of awards since opening. It is a hotel only; rooms are not sold.

There is nothing to buy here. Apartments for sale in central Hoan Kiem are rare; most buyers look further out in Ba Dinh, Tay Ho or new towers to the west.

Renting and holiday use

Rates have started at around USD 270–390 a night, rising to several thousand for the top suites.

Pros and cons

  • Pros: one of Hanoi’s most acclaimed hotels, steps from the Opera House and the lake, highly individual design
  • Cons: very high prices, small hotel books up fast, no long-stay options
