I love to come back to my home from home, but feel it's a little more crowded and noisy since my previous visit. An example being what I assumed was exclusive use of the swimming pool and spa areas - as you have to book for an hour - turned out to be a less than relaxing experience with staff in and out whistling, knocking on the sauna door stating they thought I'd left when my robe, etc was still on the lounge chairs, and generally people in and out in the very short time I had to enjoy. Zen - the wonderful Front Desk Manager - was understanding and addressed my concern with a complimentary offering, for which I'm very grateful. One highlight was discovering a member of the Team who used to be at The Montague hotel, had transferred over to The Milestone. Absolute pleasure to see Jorge again.

The milestone is a truly lovely hotel. The decor is exquisite and the staff is second to none. They worked very hard to make our stay lovely and accommodated our every request. We would definitely go back again. The in-house bar is terrific and a nice place to cap off a long day. This hotel deserves its 5-star rating!

Absolutely loved this hotel ❤️ from the moment we arrived until we left, the staff and service are exceptional as is the hotel and facilities. Couldn’t fault anything at all. The best hotel we’ve stayed in in London and I’ve tried many of the 5 star hotels here! The breakfast was epic! Honestly first class all round! We were given alcoholic welcome drinks on arrival In the beautiful new bar and showed around personally by the lovely Katerina. Will definitely be staying here again when we return to London ❤️❤️❤️

Cannot say enough about the wonderful experience we had here.The hotel is a classic first rate boutique hotel. Beautifully furnished with beautiful Elie Lambert paintings and lovely attention to detail right down to fresh flowers in the elevators. My sister and I felt like family, fussed over and treated like princesses for the week we spent at the Milestone. Staff is first rate, kind and funny like the best kind of family. The rooms are extremely comfortable with comfy bedding and lovely amenities such as Floris soaps, lotions and hair care products. Despite being full at the time of our stay, we never heard a peep from neighboring rooms. The two doormen Steve and Tim sent us off in the morning and welcomed us “home” each evening like doting uncles. Angelo in the Stables Bar was a wizard with the cocktails and exceptionally charming. Highly recommend the Milestone… I look forward to returning.

When deciding what hotel to stay in while in London, The Milestone has been on my list for ages. And boy, did it live up to expectations. When the porter greeted me with "welcome home", that's exactly how I felt. That I was home. My room was small but very well-appointed (even had a bidet) and the bed was like sleeping in a cloud. There was nothing about this stay that was not top-notch. If I am able to again in the future, I would most definitely stay here again.

Service is exemplary
The service at the hotel is exemplary. They take very good care of you and of the hotel itself. Everything is spotlessly clean. The decor, however, might not be for everyone. It has changed quite a bit since our last visit. The location is excellent, right across the street from Kensington Park and well served by transit.
