In another step forward for luxury hospitality in Seoul, Capella Hotel Group is delighted to announce its partnership with Heonin Town Development Ltd. This partnership will bring to life Capella Residences Seoul in 2027 -- a visionary project that marks Capella Hotels and Resorts' entry into the vibrant capital city of South Korea.

The upcoming Capella Residences Seoul will offer an exclusive collection of residences. This project will not just be about creating homes; it will be about crafting a lifestyle that will redefine luxury living in Seoul.

Capella Hotels and Resorts, twice winner of Travel + Leisure's World's Best Hotel Brand (2023 and 2024), will weave its magic in the lush Seocho-gu area of Gangnam. With flagship properties already recognised among the World's 50 Best Hotels, Capella promises to uplift Seoul's luxury hospitality landscape, bringing its signature blend of cultural immersion and extraordinary experiences to this dynamic destination.

We are excited about Capella's arrival, which will elevate a new benchmark for luxury living in South Korea."

Imagine a haven where the pulse of urban innovation harmonises with the serenity of nature—this is the essence of Seocho-gu, Seoul's verdant gem. Known for its seamless fusion of cutting-edge offices, cultural landmarks, and lush greenery, this district perfectly embodies Capella's core philosophy to honour local heritage while redefining luxury.

Cristiano Rinaldi, President of Capella Hotel Group, shared his vision: "Seoul's transformation over the past few decades has been nothing short of incredible. It's a city where cutting-edge innovation and rich traditions coexist in fascinating ways – much like our brand ethos. We are thrilled to partner with Heonin Town Development Ltd to launch Capella Residences Seoul, which will strengthen our luxury residences portfolio following successes in Singapore and Shanghai. We are not just offering a place to live; we are crafting a lifestyle experience that will surprise, delight, and redefine luxury living in South Korea."

Lynn Woo continued: "As we embark on this exciting journey in Seoul with Capella Hotels and Resorts, we invite residents and visitors alike to be part of a new era in luxury hospitality—one that celebrates the unique spirit of South Korea while offering a global standard of excellence. Capella Residences Seoul is not simply a residence; it is a gateway to a world where every moment is curated, every detail is perfected, and every stay becomes an unforgettable story."
