Capella Shanghai Jianye Hotel - Institutional Review

Shikumen is the most distinctive residential building in Shanghai, which is a kind of architecture that integrates the characteristics of Western culture and traditional Chinese houses. Located at the junction of Jianguo West Road and Yueyang Road, the largest Shikumen lane building complex in Shanghai is built by a French real estate developer, with 22 rows of more than 200 Shikumen lane houses, which is an excellent historical building in Shanghai.

Capella is a luxury hotel from Singapore, founded in 2002 by Horst Schulze, co-founder of The Ritz-Carlton, positioned as an ultra luxury hotel, with branches on Sentosa Island in Singapore, Dusseldorf in Germany, Ixtapa in Mexico, and Marigo Bay in St. Lucia. The Capella Hotel on Sentosa Island has been voted the best hotel in Singapore by many tourists, and it was here that Trump's historic meeting with Kim Jong-un took place.

Capella has always loved old buildings when it comes to location, and this is no different for its debut in China. Capella Shanghai is located in Jianye Lane, Xuhui District, Shanghai, and is home to the Shikumen Complex, which combines traditional Shanghai style and Western architectural style, and retains classic elements such as horse-head gables, clear water red bricks, and semi-circular arch door openings of traditional Shikumen houses, presenting a unique Shanghainese style. Capella is also the only all-villa urban resort in Shanghai, and Capella's strength is evident in the size of a hotel in the heart of the city, where land is at a premium.

The hotel is divided into guest room area and apartment area, the apartment area is only open to long-term rental guests, the monthly rent is 10-150,000 yuan, and the guest room area has 55 villa-type rooms, a total of double villas, twin villas, luxury villas and supreme villas, and the room price is 3000-6000 yuan / night. Passing through the small garden is the main body of the villa. The rooms occupy a small area, but the depth is deep, the functional area can only be expanded upward, generally each room has four or five floors: the first floor is the living room, the alley is generally called the "guest room", which is the host's family to meet guests, the second floor is the video room, equipped with Bose Bluetooth speakers, where guests can watch movies and listen to songs to relax, the bedroom is generally on the third floor, the bathroom is located on the half floor, providing Aqua di Parma toiletries, and then up is the terrace, which is an excellent place overlooking the townhouse and garden landscape.

"Privacy" is the quality of service that Capella attaches great importance to, and it is also the magic weapon that Capella has won the trust of many celebrities. The internal area of the hotel can only be accessed by swiping a card, and each villa is also equipped with smart access control. If you don't want to check in in the hotel lobby, you can ask to complete the check-in procedure in your room. Each villa is equipped with a personal butler and its own small garden is separated from the rest of the residents' areas.

Due to location restrictions, the hotel is unable to build a swimming pool, which may be a major flaw of Capella in Jianye, but the hotel can learn from each other's strengths and make up for its shortcomings. Capella's proudest Auriga Spa has also been introduced to Jianyeli, which not only offers the usual spa treatments, but also provides special services such as floating tanks and Himalayan energy salt rooms. In addition, the hotel's restaurants are sure to surprise you, such as the Comptoir de Pierre Gagnaire, a French restaurant helmed by Michelin-starred chef Gagnaire, and the executive chef Romain Chapel, Gagnaire's protégé, who serves exquisite and creative cuisine to guests and visitors.

Capella Jianye has a unique Shanghai atmosphere, and if you plan to visit Shanghai for a short period of time and have a good budget, you may want to stay here for a few days and you will definitely enjoy a different living experience.
