We had a wonderful stay and will definitely keep Capital Hotel in mind for our next trip.
Pros:

We arrived quite early and were offered an upgrade for a room that was ready, for 50£ a night, on a floor that had just been renovated. It was so nice to be able to checkin immediately in a very comfortable and pretty room, very much worth the extra money. We found the location excellent as well.

Cons:

The bathroom door closed automatically, had to keep it open with a bin.
