Luxury Travel: London’s Capital Hotel

Capital Living RoomThe Capital Hotel in Knightsbridge is a haven of romance in the heart of London. This five star establishment offers standard rooms to a private two bedroom suite with its own private entrance. The rooms are superb, but the amenities are what set it apart from other lodging choices in London.

Check in at The Capital is an introduction in elegance and sophistication. The cozy lobby is decorated in warm tones that welcome guests to their temporary home. The hotel offers a bar, restaurant, lobby computer, and a sitting room where afternoon tea is served.

The concierge, Clive, knows what is happening around the city and how to make the most of your visit. He can arrange spa treatments at Harrods or an elegant evening at the ballet. He can also make restaurant reservations and suggestions for dinner; however, The Capital boasts one of the finest two star Michelin restaurants in the world. Chef Eric Chavot is a delight in and out of the kitchen.

I was fortunate enough to stay in the two bedroom suite, which is decorated in soothing tones of blue and a bit of brown for elegance. It has a kitchen, dining room, two full baths, a study area, and two bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other with two twin beds. One bathroom has a walk-in shower. The main bathroom boasts a large soaking tub, complete with votives and bath salts for that romantic bath. All bath products are Moulton Brown.

note: This hotel is very expensive.
