Location, location, location. Perfect for those who love shopping. You almost live in Harrods!!! :) Hyde Park, Victoria and Albert Museum and nice restaurants such as Sale y Pepe (Italian) are all within few minutes walk.

This is a quiet, discreet hotel in a fabulous location. The staff are excellent and very helpful. The rooms feel a little cramped (too much furniture in a small space perhaps?)

Location is extremely nice. 30 second on foot to Harrods. Staffs are very friendly. Room size would be common in Europe. You can enjoy afternoon tea in the room. There is not a tea/coffee server in the room. Shower head is fixed on the wall (In case which takes a bath with a baby is inconvenient).

The location was excellent for my requirement, which was the main priority for me and whilst in the heart of Knightsbridge, no problems with noise at all during our 4 night stay. Staff are courteous and mostly efficient. No tea/coffee making facility in the room and no mineral water provided in the room. Disappointing for a "luxury" hotel. After we asked for water an ice bucket of mineral water bottles was placed by the main entrance daily. One usable electrical socket in our Executive double room, which was barely close enough to the mirror on the wardrobe door for my partner to use the hairdryer. There was no socket near the dressing table/desk. The hotel is part of the Small Luxury Hotels chain but having to squeeze sideways between a chair and the bed to get into bed is a bit too small. I spend a lot of time in 5* hotels worldwide and this room did not meet the standard of luxury in my opinion.

Location only. Stayed in the executive single room. Very small with old decoration. Housekeeping noise made it impossible to sleep every morning even i warned them each time. So the main purpose of my holiday is totally spoiled.

We were dissapointed with the old bathrooms and toilets which had seperate cold and hot water fauccits which was difficult to use and impractical . also the location of the toilet seats next to the walls made it difficult to use the toilets . The shower was old and in need of renovation . Being a member of Small Luxury hotels of the world , we expected the hotel to have better bathroom facilities . We reduced our stay to one night instead of four and moved to another hotel which costed more .

Met name de locatie is perfect, gelegen tussen Harvey Nichols en Harrods. Het ontbijt is niet van het niveau dat je van een 5 sterren hotel verwacht. Een paar afbakbroodjes en weinig beleg. Wel op verzoek eieren e.d. geserveerd gekregen.

Очень милый, уютный отель. Чисто и, несмотря на то,что отель старый, нет отвратительных запахов. Очень приветливый, дружелюбный персонал. Прекрасное, удобное расположение для тех, кто приехал походить по магазинам. Шумно. Утром слышно все, что происходит за дверью и окнами. Раздельные краны для горячей и холодной воды.

Wat mij tegenviel waren de kranen, warm en koud water gescheiden, beetje achterhaald voor een Hotel als the Capital.
