Modern British charm meets timeless elegance at The Milestone Hotel Kensington, a boutique 5-star stay nestled between Knightsbridge and Kensington.

Perfect location and really great...

Liked: We have stayed in quite a few hotels in London but have finally found the gem we were waiting for! Such a wonderful hotel, old world charm but with modern amenities and the best part is the incredibly good service. From the moment the charming Steve opened the door for us, we were treated so well. Everyone is intent on making your stay perfect. We honestly couldn't fault anything. Housekeeping were brilliant, the bar was great for a meal before heading out, did I mention Steve the doorman, so helpful....breakfast was perfect, concierge knowledgeable, and did I mention Steve the doorman? Set in the heart of Kensington, opposite the palace gardens, it was so lovely to see this green oasis through the windows. Honestly such a TREAT we will most definitely be back!

Excellent, apart from breakfast

Liked: the staff, location and hotel are all fantastic
Disliked: Cooked breakfast wasn't great, and at £50 per head...you expect it to be the greatest cooked breakfast you've ever eaten...
