August 12th, 2025 — Capella Hotels and Resorts, named Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Hotel Brand for three consecutive years, has officially arrived in Macau, marking a significant milestone in the city’s luxury hospitality landscape. The highly anticipated Capella at Galaxy Macau has entered its soft-opening phase, offering invitation-only stays and exclusive previews of its culinary concepts to select guests.

This debut is the result of a strategic partnership between Capella and Galaxy Macau, placing the award-winning hotel group at the pinnacle of the integrated resort’s luxury portfolio.

“This strategic partnership positions Capella as the pinnacle of luxury hospitality within Galaxy Macau’s integrated resort. Our guests enjoy unparalleled access to Galaxy’s extensive amenities while experiencing a level of personalised service and cultural immersion that only Capella delivers – from our signature Capella Culturists to bespoke experiences that celebrate Macau’s extraordinary heritage.”

A Design Inspired by Nature and Heritage

Conceived by Paris-based design firm Moinard Bétaille, the property’s concept channels Macau’s lush green hills, flowing waterways, and storied past into a sophisticated tropical jungle aesthetic. The 17-story hotel blends modern refinement with immersive, nature-infused elements, including a striking digital art wall in the lobby that reinterprets the theme with contemporary flair.
