Capella Hanoi: A Theatrical Ode to Opera by Bill Bensley

Capella Hanoi is another Bill Bensley tour de force, a jewel-box hotel near the Hanoi Opera House whose interiors are a theatrical homage to opera and to the golden age of Vietnamese performance. Every corner is layered with drama and detail.

The dining follows the theme. Backstage is the theatrically designed all-day restaurant, Koki serves Japanese teppanyaki, Diva's Lounge handles afternoon tea and cocktails, and The Hudson Rooms hide a speakeasy bar.

For a Hanoi stay with genuine sense of theater, Capella is the city's most imaginative address.
