The Milestone Hotel<br />

The Milestone Hotel and Apartments take their name from the old cast iron milestone<br />

that stands in its original position beside the hotel. Previous residents of the properties that<br />

have stood on this site include a mistress of James II, a man who believed himself to be<br />

Shakespeare’s grandson, and an aristocratic governess to the daughters of George II.<br />

In August 1986 the Milestone was badly damaged in a fire. By September 1999, The Milestone<br />

had been fully restored to its original architectural splendor as a unique five-star hotel with 45<br />

luxurious bedrooms, 12 sumptuous suites and 6 two bedroom apartments: the benefits of its<br />

superb location were of course ever-present, with many of the rooms overlooking Kensington<br />

Gardens. Over the subsequent years The Milestone has been showered with numerous awards<br />

and accolades, and today ranks as one of the best hotels in the world.<br />
