Reviews for The Milestone Hotel

A jewel of a hotel

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

My wife and I shared two nights at The Milestone Hotel in Kensington. It is a rare jewel! The service and staff are fantastic. All of the staff combine wonderful service with a warm hospitality. Our room over looked the Kensington Palace with a wide bay window. It was a wonderful, calm oasis. It you enjoy an old style and traditional hotel with fabulous service, then I can fully recommend. My wife had a great massage in the spa. We will be returning.

A stunning and exceptional hotel experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

My Wife and I are in our late seventies and have travelled the world staying in many many hotels abroad and particularly London. We stayed for one night at the Milestone Hotel Kensington on Sat 28th Feb 2026 This hotel is absolutely exceptional in every respect. Their attention to detail is impeccable. The room was spotless to the point of looking new and unused. The room decor was stunning and the bathroom impeccable with an abundance of towels and accessories. The staff in this hotel are amazing. Friendly interested committed and happy in their work..They are all so genuine and welcoming. The hotel exudes ambience and history. The hotel walls and decor exude history and the whole hotel is like a time warp that encapsulates you and takes you back.into a time warp.to a time when hotels offered true ambience and quality.. If you do nothing else with your life, you must visit and stay at this amazing London Hotel. Be sure to dine in the amazing dining room and sample the wonderful fare. My Wife and I cannot wait to return for a longer stay at this hotel. A truly enchanting and magical experience. Well done everyone. Best wishes Mr and Mrs Tyrrell.

Our stay at the **Milestone Hotel** in Kensington was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the incredibly attentive and professional staff, who made us feel valued and genuinely cared for throughout our entire stay. The staff were always cheerful, upbeat, and welcoming, creating a warm and positive atmosphere every single day. The breakfast was excellent, offering a wonderful selection of fresh, high-quality options served with great attention to detail. It was the perfect start to each of our days. We were also very impressed by the cleanliness of the hotel. Both our room and the common areas were immaculate, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully prepared. Overall, the Milestone Hotel combines elegance, comfort, and outstanding hospitality at the highest level. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Kensington, and we very much look forward to returning in the future.

Lovely staff, great breakfast, room claustrophobic

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

My husband and I stayed one night at the Milestone. The hotel is in an excellent location and we received impeccable service when we were there. Everyone was lovely. Breakfast was also fabulous. Unfortunately, however, the room was small, with a low ceiling and small window. It was also incredibly hot and stuffy (even when I reduced the temperature dial to 16c). My husband and I both felt incredibly claustrophobic to the point we thought we might have a panic attack and barely slept. I could see no way to open the window. This was despite the fact that we were not in the smallest room, we had booked a king room. Also the television did not work in the room (no signal!?!). We did not bother to ask for this to be rectified as we were only staying one night. There was also no tea or coffee facilities in the room. The bar in the hotel is incredibly claustrophobic. It is probably the smallest hotel bar I have ever seen and it has no windows. It feels like a cave. I think the hotel is very well run and the people working there are very accommodating but the rooms and bar were not for us so unfortunately we won’t be returning.

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.
