1 / 8The Milestone Hotel & Residences
Kensington and Chelsea, London
Yes. Dogs can stay overnight.
A Grade II listed hotel opposite Kensington Palace, where dogs get a welcome hamper, a dog menu and a bed made up on request.
The Milestone Hotel & Residences stands directly opposite Kensington Palace, a Grade II listed English mansion house in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, minutes from the Royal Albert Hall. Guests who mention the pet get a Pet Preference Form before they arrive at this dog friendly hotel, which sets the tone for the rest of it.
Mention the pet before you arrive and the form follows, so the hotel can prepare for the stay: a tailor-made welcome hamper, a welcome letter setting out the pet services, and a pet bed made up from blankets and bedding if you ask for one. Outside the room a dog is on a leash, and the hotel asks that pets are never left unattended in guestrooms. How many dogs are welcome, and in which of the 56 rooms, the hotel doesn't say, so the Pet Concierge is the one to ask.
Dogs are not allowed into the hotel's dining, beverage or lounge venues, a matter of local ordinances, so there is a pet room service menu instead; guide dogs are the exception. Cheneston's cooks English food, the Stables Bar once housed the building's horses and now feels like a well-loved gentleman's club, and the Park Lounge serves a British afternoon tea that holds an Award of Excellence from the Afternoon Tea Awards.
The spa runs bespoke treatments and a resistance pool, with an infrared sauna and cold plunge bath as an upgrade, and a gym of state-of-the-art equipment alongside. The 56 guest rooms are 43 deluxe rooms and 13 individually designed suites, with six residences besides; no two rooms or suites are alike. Battersea Park Riverside and Lake Circular, one of Wildpack's walks for the dog, is 2 miles away.
