A jovial mood pervades this quintessentially British property. The Milestone reportedly sells more Champagne per guest than any place in London, so it’s not surprising that a jovial mood pervades this quintessentially British property, which dates to the 19th century and once housed a military academy. Occupying two buildings, the hotel has sixty-two lavishly furnished rooms, including six long-stay suites, some with remarkable views of Kensington Palace and its gardens. Thoughtful details abound, such as sweet treats, fresh fruit and books of poetry placed in guests’ rooms each night. The hotel restaurant, Cheneston’s (reflecting an early spelling of Kensington), serves modern British fare in an intimate setting; for special occasions, guests can order private dinners in the Oratory, originally a chapel, and a romantic turn-down service.
Dining
Relax in the clubby Stables Bar, the airy Conservatory or the comfortable Park Lounge and savor modern British cuisine in Cheneston’s.
Location
A 19th-century architectural treasure overlooking Kensington Gardens, the hotel is steps from top museums, the Royal Albert Hall, Harrods and Harvey Nichols.
Guest Services
With two staff members to every guest, it’s no wonder the hotel is regularly rated one of the best in the world for outstanding personal service.
