From check in to check out the staff here is amazing. We felt welcomed the moment we stepped in the doors. The suite we stayed in was lovely. Turn down service each evening with a treat was a special touch. Breakfast was excellent. We had to leave early for our return flight, and staff had coffee made up for us. We enjoyed the gardens/park close by, and we were able to walk to shops, sites and restaurants. The room and comfortable bed were a welcome retreat after a long day exploring. I really enjoyed a soak in the tub with provided salts, and every night came back to a candle light by the tub. Sad our time wasn’t longer at this hotel. Looking forward to a trip in the future!

Quality throughout , excellent service and attentive to detail ! , everything you would expect a true English 5 star to be. Fantastic breakfast, exquisite dining, fine wines, well stocked bar. Perfect for Royal Albert hall, opposite the park. Thank you Milestone for being there.

Our Milestone Hotel stay exceeded our expectations! Everyone at the hotel was friendly, helpful, and so knowledgeable! They made us feel at home during our stay, offered local recommendations, taught us some local history, and were just so welcoming! We will definitely come back on our next visit to London!

Had a fantastic stay at the Milestone, fabulous facilities, nothing too much trouble for the staff and excellent location and superb breakfast. We will definitely return to experience the Milestone again, you do really get what you pay for in life.

I absolutely loved my stay at the Milestone Hotel. This was the most luxurious and pampered hotel experience we could have asked for staying in London. The location is excellent, being close to a Tube stop and also right next to Hyde Park and Kensington Palace. Walking around the neighborhood was so enjoyable. What really "sings" about this hotel is the staff and how well they take care of you and take pride in their service. Housekeeping was wonderful and the concierge was so helpful, especially calling us taxis to get to shows on the West End or to our train station. We had daily breakfast here and it was delicious and had so much variety and we also had high tea and dinner here. The value of our booking was so worth it. I also would recommend the on site bar - it was so intimate and fun and the drinks were delicious. A worthwhile stay and blew our expectations out of the water.

I traveled to London and stayed at The Milestone Hotel this summer. It was a wonderful experience. I can't say enough good things about this hotel. The service was excellent along with the accommodations. I highly recommend it and look forward to staying again in the future!

We stayed at the fabulous Milestone Hotel in London, opposite Kensington Palace. The service and attention to detail of everyone from the manager to our own personal butler was a most truly unforgettable experience. Staff we had never met before even knew our names at all times. Very friendly and professional.

My husband and I have stayed in 5 star hotels all over the world. If there was a way to give The Milestone more than 5 stars - I would give them 15 stars. It is quite possibly the best hotel I have ever stayed in London or anywhere else. Our room was large and beautiful, with amenities I have never seen anywhere else, like a silver case with printed cards with my name and all the hotel information to give out while I was staying at the Milestone. Every little thing that we might need was thought of. If you read the website - it sounds too good to be true, but it is even better than described.
The staff was perfect. We felt like honored members of a very exclusive club. I had filled out an email questionnaire and they got everything right. When we first walked into the bar, the barman said, "Good evening." He knew our names and then he reached for a bottle of my husband's favorite rum. We will never stay anywhere else in London.
