Dining and entertainment for children

The Milestone Lounge, Afternoon Tea and Room Service Menu all have bespoke children's options. For your peace of mind, baby intercoms are available. Alternatively, the Concierge will organise a fully qualified in-house nanny service. Mini bathrobes and slippers are provided for younger guests and a teddy bear book and chocolate mouse on turndown. For entertainment, the Milestone will provide colour pencils and colouring books, children's movies and various games. For the more adventurous, the hotel has created the “Milestone Mini Experience”, where children can go on a supervised behind the scenes tour to visit different hotel departments. At the end of the tour they are given a small task to perform and will then receive their very own Milestone Certificate.

Hire of pushchairs, highchairs, bottle warmers, booster seats, playpens and other accessories can be arranged through the Concierge.

Things to see with children

The Milestone is a few minutes walk from Kensington Gardens, which adjoins Hyde Park. These parks offer beautiful walks around the Serpentine and tree lined avenues – with acres of parkland for picnics or simply lazing about with the children in the sun.

The Cromwell Road lies a short distance to the south of the hotel and is home to the Victoria & Albert and Natural History Museum. London's Natural History Museum is a must see stop for families with it awe-inspiring dinosaur skeletons and Darwin's epoch making collection from his famous voyage on the Beagle. The Science Museum is located just above the Natural History Museum.
