About The HotelVoted the Condé Nast Readers' Choice for 2007, this quintessential luxury boutique hotel is set within a magnificent 19th-century architectural treasure, centrally located in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
Overlooking Kensington Palace and Gardens, the 5-star Milestone Hotel is one of London's most deluxe hotels providing unparalleled levels of service. The area around is a playground for tourists, shoppers, and art lovers. There's history, music, science, London's most exclusive shopping, and plenty of open green space.
With Kensington to your left, Knightsbridge to your right, and Kensington Gardens directly ahead, the hotel is wonderfully located to explore the sites and sounds of the Capital City.
Your butler will take you on a tour of the hotel's facilities, show you around your room, hand you a complimentary glass of champagne (or any other drink of your choice), and offer to unpack for you. Nothing is too much trouble; this is British warmth, hospitality, and service at its most engaging. The Milestone takes care of your every wish and has 2 staff for every guest.
The hotel provides an Events Co-ordinator to oversee your function from start to finish. Choose from the Oratory (a former chapel) for intimate or romantic gatherings of up to 8 people; the airy Conservatory for sparkling cocktail parties; or the oak-panelled Windsor Suite for the grandest of wedding breakfasts. Stables Bar has a more club-like atmosphere, while the Park Lounge recalls the elegance of a Victorian drawing room.
