Upon arrival, after a challenging journey, your reception team immediately put me at ease and surprised me with a wonderful upgrade. I cant tell you how amazing that was.

Chris, United Kingdom

Everything was excellent. especially the care and kindness of the staff. the quality of the food was extremely enjoyable, especially for Christmas Dinner.

Alison, United Kingdom

The 5th time we have stayed at the Capital Hotel and it’s great service hasn’t changed. We had a early checkin from SA at 6am and front desk where ready for us. Up to our room and spacious enough for 2 adults. Arrival coffee brought up by the ever courteous staff. We frequented the lounge a few times with great service. Unfortunately no time to enjoy the dining area but the menu looks great. On leaving once again checkout a breeze. Thanks to all at the Capital. We back next year. Hau family

Dominique, South Africa

Love the cleanliness of the room and the toiletries they give. Everything provided is of high quality. Location is unbeatable as it is only footsteps to Harrods and the underground subway Knightsbridge which is super excellent!

One of our top picks in London.In London's fashionable Knightsbridge, this family-run and award-winning hotel offers 5-star true English style and a seafood restaurant, which is masterminded by Nathan Outlaw. It is the closest hotel to London's famous store, Harrods.

Harvey Nichols, Sloane Street, and Hyde Park are also on the doorstep. The theatres of the West End can be found just 2 miles away. With the Piccadilly Line, Knightsbridge Tube Station is less than a minute's walk away and has connections to Heathrow and the Eurostar Terminal at St Pancras.

All of the elegant rooms are individually designed and classically decorated with original art and antique furniture. All suites and double rooms have handmade super king-size beds from Savoir, with hand-stitched mattresses and the finest Egyptian cotton bed linen. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property.

Along with the award-winning restaurant, The Capital also offers traditional English afternoon teas with homemade pastries, scones, and jams. The Capital Bar has an impressive whisky cellar.

Kensington and Chelsea is a great choice for travellers interested in architecture, monuments and atmosphere.
