“The Milestone Hotel Kensington strikes me as a balanced blend of Victorian architecture and modern luxury, made more unique with its in-suite performances by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and welcomes families-pets included. I believe its personalized service and distinctive experiences, like urban foraging, set it apart from other London hotels; Cheneston's on-site dining particularly stands out. It's a property that seems designed to create a lasting impression.”
