Hotel information
The Capital is unique; a jewel set in the heart of Knightsbridge.

Each of its 49 air-conditioned suites and bedrooms is individually designed, subtly luxurious and supremely comfortable.

The Capital has all the advantages of a larger establishment, yet exudes the warmth, intimacy and attention to detail, which only a privately owned hotel can afford. It truly is a grand hotel in miniature.

From the moment you are greeted by the liveried doorman, you will experience a cordial yet discreet welcome.

Familiar with the patronage of royalty, heads of state and international celebrities, The Capital has, over the years, established an enviable reputation for understated exclusivity.
Room information
Every piece of furniture, work of art and accoutrement is hand picked or, indeed, commissioned by the Levin family. Hence, it is the family's personally-chosen collection of original paintings which adorn the walls.

The exquisite interiors incorporate the work of acclaimed names from the world of British design such as Nina Campbell, and David Linley, nephew of Her Majesty The Queen.
Food & beverage
The Capital Restaurant is legendary.

Located in Basil Street, in the heart of Knightsbridge, it is currently the only London restaurant situated within a hotel to hold two coveted Michelin stars.

Eric Chavot, the Head Chef, has a following across five continents. His innovative style of cooking is acclaimed by even the most discriminating of restaurant critics.
Area information
Situated in a quiet yet central location on Basil Street, Knightsbridge, Harrods and Harvey Nichols are just steps away.

The designer shops and stylish boutiques of Sloane Street, Beauchamp Place and the Brompton Arcade may be reached on foot in minutes.

The famous South Kensington Museums are on the doorstep, while The Capital's close proximity to the Royal Parks, including Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens and St. James's, provides the perfect opportunity for a leisurely stroll through some of the city's most picturesque open spaces - or even an energetic jog.

You may travel around town from Knightsbridge Underground Station, located less than one minute from the hotel, or by bus from Sloane Street, Brompton Road and Knightsbridge.
