Capella Bangkok
Capella Bangkok in Thailand offers panoramic views of the majestic Chao Phraya River. Inspired by the soul of riverfront life, the property’s 101 suites and villas offer both intimacy and immersion by bringing the beauty, cultural depth and iconic landmarks to work as their centre piece. As a gateway to the eternal beauty of nature, and the urban oasis of the city, Capella Bangkok’s accommodations are designed as a traveller’s pied à terre: familiar yet sophisticated, curated around relaxation and exploration.
Capella Singapore
Located within 30-acres of lush rainforest on Sentosa island, Capella Singapore has cemented itself as one of the most luxurious hotels in the region over the last decade. At the heart of the resort lies two restored Tanah Merah colonial bungalows dating back to the 1880s. Architects Foster + Partners, led by Lord Norman Foster, designed the 112 guestrooms, villas and two Colonial Manors resort to sit in harmony with surrounding nature, combining old-world colonial charm with contemporary chic.
“We are deeply honoured that our flagship properties in Southeast Asia, Capella Bangkok and Capella Singapore, have maintained their positions on The World’s 50 Best Hotels list for a second consecutive year,” says Cristiano Rinaldi, President, Capella Hotel Group.
“To have one hotel maintain its position on such a prestigious list is remarkable; to have two do so, with one claiming the top spot globally and in Asia, is simply exceptional. This is particularly significant given the fierce competition in the luxury hotel sector and the constant evolution of guest expectations. This incredible recognition adds to our celebration of being named World’s Best Hotel Brand by Travel + Leisure for the second time, making 2024 a truly landmark year for Capella.
These accolades are a tribute to our dedicated Capella colleagues and a testament to the trust from our guests— as masters in our craft, we will continue to redefine luxury hospitality and set new standards for excellence.”
