South Kensington
With its ivied mews, row upon row of Poppins-esque white washed mansions, and placid garden squares, it's easy to see the charms of South Kensington. And with superb access to Hyde Park, Holland Park and Kensington Gardens, as well as the largely child-friendly and mostly free Museum Quarter (not to mention more major attractions like Royal Albert Hall) such charms are easy to make the most of. As welcoming and cosmopolitan as it is reserved and residential, South Kensington is always a hit with visitors.

Having stayed at many of London's five starts hotels over the past decades, this one is by far my favourite. The location is quiet and beautiful, next to the Kensington Gardens, and conveniently central. The size of the hotel and its ambience makes you feel at home instantly. The employees, every single one of them, are highly professional, hospitable and friendly. I strongly recommend this hotel. And yes, the bar! You have to visit the bar!

The service is first-rate. Someone was always around to help or be friendly. The breakfast was absolutely delicious. I didn't have dinner here but would do so next time based on the breakfast. Though expensive and was a reach for me, I would love to stay here again.

Second visit to this wonderful hotel. Fabulous location.... especially for the Royal Albert Hall. We had the afternoon tea, which was excellent. All the staff go out of their way to be helpful. Rooms are immaculate. Also used the Valet parking, which was reasonably priced and hassle free. The breakfast was amazing too.

For those of you looking for the best hotel, the best experience, the best home away from home extraordinary experience, look no further than the Milestone Hotel in London, England. Their exemplary service, accommodations, food, offerings, and concierge access and care will be one of the highlights of your experience and stay in London. Connor at the Concierge desk took such a genuine interest in researching events and plays in the area for my daughter and I to enjoy. Within in minutes we had the best seats at the Lion King and with another request for Lady Diana memorials, he had printed off and mapped out our route along with our following days to make the most of our three days in London. Tim, the doorman, helped us with securing and locating our drivers and David and Antonio were so helpful and provided such attention during our dining experience. We literally could have just spent our three days just enjoying our time at the Milestone. At the end of each day of sightseeing, we were equally excited to return to the loving care that we felt and had with our new and immediate friends, the staff of the Milestone. Thank you Milestone Staff for taking such great care of the Russells while we were with you. You are the pinnacle of service and accommodations. We felt so loved and spoiled!

Do they have parking available? We are coming by car. Thanks!
Not at the hotel, although they do offer valet parking. Off-peak on-street parking as also available nearby. We used the NCP Royal Garden Hotel car park nearby (2 minutes walk). Tight spiral access ramp under the hotel and very limited height-wise, but otherwise perfectly adequate.
