Capella Shanghai, Jian Ye Li
Shanghai
Capella Shanghai, Jian Ye Li preserves a cluster of shikumen architecture in Xuhui, turning the narrow-lane setting into an intimate hotel neighbourhood. Its 55 villas range from one to three bedrooms, blending traditional Shanghainese courtyard living with French-influenced interiors. The buildings originated in the 1930s, and the design retains that heritage through Chinoiserie details and carefully arranged living spaces. Garden Villas face the Secret Garden, while larger categories add room for families and groups. Capella Culturists arrange experiences around individual stays, helping guests connect the property with the city outside. Le Comptoir de Pierre Gagnaire reinterprets French cooking with local ingredients in a Parisian salon-inspired room, and La Boulangerie adds freshly baked breads and pastries to the dining collection.
