The Capital Hotel

Still a fantastic location and a quiet small hotel, BUT the room we occupied for two nights this time showed same aging effects, such as stained paperwall, bathroom not so clean looking (floor and sink not neat looking) The elevator also really looks a bit run down for this type of establishment. Service was polite and helpful. The room was quiet and spacious.

Upon arrival, the manager welcomed me in person. Staff is very helpfull and profesional. The rooms are well decorated and they take care of all details. Food is good, but it taks a little bit long to be served. I will repeat

We have recently spent a week in this charming hotel. From the time of our arrival to departure we were made very welcome and nothing was to much trouble. The staffs main aim seems to be to make ones stay perfect. We ate in the restaurant twice and had two of the best meals we have had. We are looking forward to our next stay.

I have stayed at this hotel on three different occasions since 2003 and have always had a good experience. The hotel is in a great location and is small and intimate.( tucked away on the street behind Harrods) If you want peace and quiet in a smart hotel, this is the place to stay.I can recommend restaurant as well. I went with a friend for afternoon tea this month and the service and hotel are as great as ever. Afternoon tea at the Capital is one of life's great pleasures - go and enjoy.

I would say this is probably the best hotel I have used in London!

The Capital is a nice looking hotel but has some issues with noise. The rooms are very small and offer a great base if you dont want to relax in your room at all. Unfortunately, all night long you can hear banging and crashing of the air conditioning units that are quite old, not to mention delivery vans coming into the courtyard. Due to the noise alone we had the worst sleep of any stay in a london hotel and I have stayed at most of the five star hotels, including the Ritz, the Draycott (which is a much better hotel than the Capital)... more

Stayed a Friday and Saturday night and on arrival was informed we were being upgraded. The staff were attentive and dilagent with expert knowledge of the city. We ordered room service Friday night and would recomed the steak. The room was of a good size for London, clean thoughout and very quiet. Breafast is very good as well. There were many little touches that definatly improved our stay. I would definatly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a confortable and stress free stay in central London and has become my firm favourite when... more

I highly recommend this hotel. This hotel typifies London for me with quaint furnishings, a lovely little lobby, and staff that will go above and beyond for their guests. The location is great too - 1/2 block from Harrod's (you must see the food markets and cafe's in the store - simply wonderful) and the neighborhood is great. There are many shops (not just high end) and restaurants in the area. And the residential sections typify London so it was nice to stroll about. The hotel staff recommended a fun Italian restaurant one block away.... more

Excellent location...right at the backdoor of Harrods and half a block from Sloan ST. (Harvey Nichols, Gucci, Ferragamo...need I say more?). My family and I were fortunate enough to spend three awesome weeks in this hotel. The service was welcoming, knowledgable, refined and delicate. The amenities were top-notch. My family and I dream of going back...this hotel is a true benchmark for all other hotels to aspire to!
