First time doing in London and doing the afternoon tea experience. This was lovely! Making reservations was easy and the service was excellent! Variety of teas to choose from with delightful pastries and tea sandwiches to accompany. If you want a special memory, afternoon tea at Capital Hotel is perfect! Charming boutique hotel!

I’m in complete agreement with the other Unilocalers who have raved about the high tea at The Capital Hotel– it is stellar. As part of our week in London, I promised my teenage daughter a one day break from churches, castles & war rooms to go shopping. After draining my wallet up & down Oxford’& Regent streets, we met my mother at the Capital for tea before hitting Harrods (a stone’s throw away– so convenient). The staff is lovely & bent over backwards to make our tea special. The hotel is charming and we were seated in a lovely, wallpapered room with beautiful white clothed tables & cushy chairs. The casement windows were open to the sunny day and view of sweet Basil Street. The sandwiches & treats were delicious as was the choice in tea. We loved the scones as well. Tea is such a civilized way to recharge your battery before heading back out to face the shopping hordes & if you are in London this is the place to do it.

Great for afternoon tea and to warm up in the cold weather in February.
Wifi is free for all guests.
Staff is friendly.
Great location right by Knightsbridge.
How ever the rooms don’t have a complimentary tea and coffee witch I found odd. Non the less staying there for a week was great. The room was cute and cosy as the entire hotel, gives a feel of old London.

If you want an elegant, lovely, relaxing afternoon tea in London that’s reasonably priced, look no further. For 29.50£ pp you’ll have the perfect London tea experience.
Catalin and Pedro serve with class and warmth. Suggesting different teas that you may fancy based on your tastes and mood.
Based on Catalin’s, and my, love for smoky and full flavored foods he recommended the Jing Bohea Lapsang tea. It was amazing. Like nothing I’ve ever tasted before. I also bought 50g of it to take home.
The tower of petite food and sweets selections were ample and delish! The room was oh so warm and soothing. I couldn’t have had a more enjoyable tea and time. This is the one to go to while in London and looking for a fabulous true English experience.

A group of us went to have the Christmas Afternoon tea here because this place was rated best in London and they sure lived by its title.
I miss their afternoon tea now that I am writing about it.
The tables are a bit small for 4 because there are alot of plates and teacups placed.
We ordered tea and we were given the menu of what we were going to be expecting.
The sandwiches were cute.
But I think they purposely didn’t come to check up on us to avoid us asking for more food. I liked the yellow clementine mousse with the dark chocolate and the little butterscotch cookies. The fruit scones were the best but they are very fulfilling.

Worth the $ 25 a person for tea. Their version of smart casual means a coat and slacks would make you fit in better. The department store Harrod’s is right around the corner. There are more than several blocks of high-​end fashion stores surrounding this venue.

last minute need for afternoon tea on Saturday and this place accommodated even though we were very casually dressed. Very nice tea served, and for quite a bit less than i paid last week at Browns (which was really fabulous) but don’t think Brown’s would have let me in with trainers — how nice and steps away from the crushing crowds of Harrods for a nice afternoon respite from shopping.

Very frustrating unprofessional experience. I booked by the type of room w/​desk, etc. for work. The hotel was over booked so since I had «reserved a room for 1» they downgraded me to a lesser room than I had booked — for the same price. I could upgrade for an additional amount of 80 + 20% VAT per night for the 5 nights — total 480. It was Saturday afternoon, the hotels in the area were booked, so I had no choice but to pay the additional, as I needed the room I had actually booked. I’ve never been downgraded because I was only 1 person — it would seem that you should be able to book by type of room without risk of being penalized for the number of people. The hotel adds on another 16/​night for a «discretionary fee» at checkout that was not a tax & could not be explained by the attendant other than to say it did not go in the «employees’ pockets». Since I had already left standard tip for the service in the room, I declined to pay the fee — although there was only cleaning service on 3 of the 5 days I was there. At checkin, the attendant told me that a manager would contact me to discuss the issues. I checked at the desk on 2 occasions, but was never contacted. I did receive an email from the manager after I checked out, offering to upgrade me on my next visit to the hotel. The hotels blames the travel agency & the travel agency blames the hotel but neither responded to queries until after I checked out.

I had lunch at the Capital Hotel’s restaurant several times, and I was always truly amazed not only about the quality of food but also about the value for money.
The dining room is modern and sleek, and fairly small. Customer service was very attentive as you would expect from a restaurant of this caliber. Lunch started of with an amuse bouche which was nicely composed. Starter and main course were very delicious, but portion sizes were on the small side, even for a former two Michelin star restaurant. However, the delicious bread served with food made up for it, so I did not need to leave hungry. Dessert was especially nice, and coffee was served with a couple of mignardises, of which the delicious macaroons really stood out. They also had a very good choice of wines.
I don’t know why this restaurant is no longer listed in the Michelin guide, but when I ate there, they had two Michelin stars that they truly deserved.

This would be a five star hotel if it weren’t for the location, which sounds ridiculous when you have a hotel that is literally half a block from both Harrods, the world’s largest department store, the Underground and major bus lines, yet sits on a quiet street.
The area, over the last decade, has come increasingly to cater to tourists from the Middle East, who have the money to pay for luxury accommodations and who seem to really like the shopping in the area. If you are a fan of Middle Eastern food and living, then you can add the last star.
We were there for a few days, though, and my wife, who actually enjoys English cuisine, found it difficult to find good places to eat near the hotel when we came back, were tired from sightseeing or shopping, and didn’t want to venture out very far to get some dinner.
There is not much restaurant diversity and folks from the Middle East are heavy smokers, which makes the cafes a bit tough in a city which, with the new smoking ordinances in place, is finally getting breathable again for those of us who don’t light up. There are other shops in the area that serve faster food, but the majority of them shut down at night and the ones that stay open may not exactly qualify as the kind of meal you want on holiday for your dinner.
The hotel itself is up-​to-​date, elegant, with a fantastic bar and restaurant. The staff is exceptional, and the quality of the rooms was good for the price.
Kensington is also a bit removed from other big shopping areas and Picidilly, although not really that far (10 min.) by Tube, or about 30 by bus or taxi with the construction going on in that area as of this writing.

I must say, our christmas girlie lunch was fan f***ing tabulous. And it just goes to show that the Capital (although was extremely full and seem to have become slightly less unfashionable since my last visit) has a heck a lot of class.
As my sister was behind the mythical million car pile up on the M40 and took 3 ½ hours to travel down from Oxford, we started lunch an hour late. No worries, they didn’t blink an eyelid and just let those of us who were here drink our drinkies and get drunk eating macerated cherries (I didn’t eat breakfast to save space.)
Though by the time we seated it was past 2, the service was very attentive and not rushed at any point. And I must say I was very impressed with my fishy wellington– basically an amazing dish and very creative way to use fish that might not necessarily be slapping fresh. Delicious! Unfortunately our vegetarian was less impressed with her mainly mushroomy meal– though she did like the fact she could chop and change the lunch menu to suit her dietary requirements– a thing where some restaurants won’t let you do… apparently. (I won’t know I am a carnivore.)
Then they just gave up with following the menu and let us choose whatever dessert we wanted. They were yummy, though we agreed that they could have been much hotter.
By the time we left it was around 4:30 and there was a table still ordering more wine and enjoying themselves. Stressed out servers? I think not.
Some would say such attentive yet invisible service is old fashioned. But you know what? for the price you pay; you can do a heck of a lot worse. And what’s wrong with some old fashioned class once in a while?
Thanks Capital. It’s not often I want to rewrite a review to sing more praises.

If you want a lunch that will blow you away, then look no further than The Capital. A beautiful dining room, that is quiet and well lit serves some of the finest food to be found in Knightsbridge.
The Two Michelin starred place has a very modestly priced lunch menu of £33 for 3 courses. Where they stump you is when you get to the wine list. I ordered a particularly fine 2004 Pouilly Fume which was fruity, punchy and exceptionally smooth.
The amuse bouche of scallop and bacon lit the backdrop of a real feast of the senses. I had scallops to start with with, and then had a daube of beef that literally melted in my mouth. It also came with a small copper pot of mashed potato that had the texture of velvet. I finished with a beautiful chocolate tart, which had weaved caramel, so fine, it melted on my tongue. They also used shortbread instead of pastry which gave a crisp, buttery taste against the chocolate.
We were also given a couple of complimentary chocolates, made there by the chef. I would recommend the Earl Grey, mango and raspberry chocolates highly. Oh and the salted caramel is not to be missed either.
The cheese trolley is not for the faint hearted, but very worth it, the complimentary breads ad chutneys offered set it all off beautifully and left my partner and I wanting a big squishy bed to curl up together on. The temptation to try and get a booking in the Hotel was far too tempting.
If you want to take anywhere to a restaurant in London that really suggests that you love them unconditionally, book The Capital — you realy won’t be disappointed.
I’m still paying for my meal there but it was really worth every single penny.

What’s a trip to London without some afternoon tea? Our original plan was to have tea at the fancy schmancy Claridge’s Hotel. When we discovered it was over € 50 pounds for tea at Claridge’s my friend suggested we try The Capital instead, where she’s enjoyed tea two other times during her past few months in London.
We were bummed to hear their supposedly adorable tea room was closed for a private event, but they offered to set up tea for us in the bar instead. My friends and I decided this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. Afterall, us alcoholics usually feel more at home at the bar anyway.
While I love the experience of going for tea, I’m not exactly a tea lover so I asked for the sweetest tea possible. I ended up with the hibiscus, which I actually enjoyed– especially after dropping 3 – 4 sugar cubes in it. Now, that’s what you call sweet tea!
As for the sandwiches and pastries… they were pretty fabulous! The serving size for tea for 3 looked a little on the large size, but we had no trouble gobbling it all up. There wasn’t anything I didn’t like, but favorites included the smoked salmon sandwich, mini lemon bar, and mini chocolate mousse. All this for £18. Take that Claridges!
