Capella Singapore: Where Taylor Swift Stayed During Her Eras Tour
Forget everything you think you know about Singapore hotels. On Sentosa Island, behind towering rain trees and manicured gardens, sits Capella Singapore – one of only four hotels in the city-state to earn a five-star status. The others? Raffles Hotel Singapore, The Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore, and The Paiza at Marina Bay Sands. That's it.
With just 113 rooms, suites, villas, and manors scattered across 30 acres, Capella feels more like a private estate than a hotel. Which is exactly the point.
Even Taylor Swift stayed here. She checked into the Colonial Manor, a heritage villa that goes for over USD 17,000 per night. But believe it or not, that’s not even Capella’s most expensive stay.
Let’s take a closer look at the three exclusive manors at Capella.

Capella isn’t just a resort, it’s also a quiet art gallery. The team commissioned over 900 pieces during the construction of the property, and they’re everywhere if you look closely. Some are bold, others are subtle, but all of them give the resort a sense of identity that goes beyond the usual hotel decor.
One of the most memorable parts of a stay at Capella is the people. The resort doesn’t just have a concierge. Instead, they have Capella Culturists, staff who help plan your stay with thoughtful recommendations, personal touches, and an itinerary if you want one. They’re helpful without being overbearing.
Guests also get:
Daily refreshments and afternoon tea at The Living Room
Complimentary pressing of up to five clothing items per stay
24-hour in-room dining
Free minibar
Wi-Fi and fitness center access
Shuttle service to VivoCity and Universal Studios Singapore
Restaurants
Capella has two main restaurants, and each one is worth visiting.
Cassia is the more elegant of the two, offering Cantonese dishes in a beautifully designed space by André Fu. It’s quiet, refined, and perfect for special occasions.
Fiamma is warm and welcoming, with Italian food crafted under the guidance of Michelin-starred Chef Mauro Colagreco. It’s relaxed, full of charm, and built around the joy of shared meals.
There’s also The Pineapple Room, a newer bar above the lobby. It’s a quiet space with handcrafted cocktails and a laid-back atmosphere. If you’re celebrating something, you can also book Chef’s Table, a private kitchen space used for small events and special meals.
A Spa That Moves With the Moon
Auriga Spa is based on the lunar cycle. Treatments are designed to match different phases of the moon, from full to new, using natural ingredients. It’s not a gimmick. It’s part of how the spa encourages you to slow down.
Inside the spa, you’ll find:
Nine treatment rooms with private gardens
Vitality pools
Herbal steam rooms
Ice fountains and experience showers
It’s calm, quiet, and has been awarded Five Stars by Forbes Travel Guide every year since 2013.
If you're already considering one of their rooms or manors, this is what rounds out the experience. It’s the little things that stay with you.
