Latest 5 reviews of The Milestone Hotel
A wonderful experience
This hotel is just wonderful. From the time you arrive through check out you are made to feel so special. The rooms are all different and unique. We were in the Harlequin Suite which had a fun black and white theme. The staff were so friendly and professional and could not do enough for you. We were there 4 nights and the staff would greet you by name. The breakfast room was charming and the service and food great. We usually had a waitress Lou whou would remember your name and what you liked to eat.
The neighborhood and location are great. Easy walk to the tube and many great neighborhood restaurants.
I can't say enough good things about The Milestone.

A beautiful boutique hotel
My husband and I recently stayed for 2 nights at the Milestone Hotel in kensington, London to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
It is a beautiful boutique hotel and we will certainly consider returning and would recommend to friends.
The front of house service was excellent as was our dining experience.
Our room was a little compact but it was decorated beautifully as was the rest of the hotel.
Our only little niggle was the breakfast service on the 2nd day which was very disappointing. With only 2 tables in the restaurant I was very surprised to have waited 40 mins for a cooked breakfast and when it arrived to find a rock hard poached egg. We were also overcharged for 2 glasses of champagne at dinner which were meant to be complimentary for the month of November. As soon as we mentioned it on departure everyone seemed genuinely very apologetic.
I suspect that we were just unfortunate on this occasion and would certainly like to return to this charming hotel

Charm, Atmosphere, Impeccable service, you wont be disappointed.
My wife and i spent our 20th Anniversary in London and stayed at the Milestone. we chose it because of the fine reviews on trip advisor. I must say that however glowing the reviews were they could never do the hotel, staff and atmosphere justice. We only had one night to stay but "wow" how they made it special. First there was an upgrade to a beautiful suite overlooking the park. Complimentry champagne (a bottlle not a glass). Fantastic room service. Try the afternon tea it`s a must. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and everyone of them genuinely seemed happy to there. I would like to thank all of the staff for there kindness and congratulate the management in assembling a great team, they are an absolute credit to them and the company.
