Cristiano Rinaldi, President of Capella Hotel Group, took the stage at the ILTM Cannes, to share what's in the pipe for the few years to come,what drives each opening and its chosen location, and remind the audience the group's philosophy.
Over the past 7 years, Capella Hotel Group has been focusing on inviting guests through a journey of personal growth and spirituality, with each brand having its distinctive touch.
Capella Hotels and Resorts has been positioned as a path to authenticity, experiencing the location, its history, its heritage, its local craftsmanship, for guests to experience the ultimate cultural and meaningful connection: perfect for all travellers, even solo. In the next three years, the brand will see 7 upcoming openings, with Taipei leading the way being set to open by the end of 2024, followed by Kyoto in 2025. In 2026, four more properties will join the catalogue in Florence, Yang Yang, Riyadh, the first in the Middle East, and Capella Nanjing, which will immerse guests in the local architecture through its converted shikumen villas. In 2027, Capella Niseko/Hokkaido ambitions to become the key ski destination in the area.
In 2028, two other properties will make an entrance in Saudi Arabia; in Amaala and the Gulf of Aqaba.
Patina Hotels & Resorts is focused on creating a pathway to a new life through wellness, mindful creativity and luxury sustainability, and is also expanding with three openings planned for 2026 and 2027.
Patina Osaka, located opposite Osaka Castle, will feature around 220 rooms, and offer guests the beauties of nearby Naniwa No Miya-Ato Park.
Patina Sanya will offer a view of the bay and its architecture is a nod to the area's richness with locally-sourced materials such as lava stone and Li brocade. The design is led by Danish studio BIG.
Patina Tianjin and its 17 restored heritage buildings, is also a tribute to the city's history, offering an original 600 m2 presidential villa and 150 guest rooms.

Capella Singapore is the Sense of Taste, and last year hosted a weekend dedicated to curated culinary experiences. Capella Bangkok is all about Touch, Capella Hanoi about Sound, Capella Shanghai, Jian Ye Li is Movement, while Capella Shanghai carries the Sense of Smell.
