TEA GUILD MEMBER
The Milestone
Expect to be treated like royalty at this luxurious hotel overlooking Kensington Palace and Gardens - their motto is 'no request too large, no detail too small'.
The Park Lounge enjoys magnificent views of the royal property, and with its roaring fire on cooler days and stately home atmosphere at all times, it is the perfect place in which to enjoy afternoon tea. Come with friends for a chat, or curl up on your own with a good book or newspaper, and relax as you enjoy the expert service.
Tea comes in a variety of flavours from Darjeeling to chamomile, accompanied by an assortment of traditional foods; with the Cream Tea come freshly-baked scones with Devonshire clotted cream and strawberry preserve, while the Afternoon Tea includes a selection of finger sandwiches (smoked salmon on honey and sultana bread perhaps), scones and French pastries.
For that added touch of luxury you can enjoy a glass of champagne while your tea brews. Other light meals and drinks are also served, and booking is recommended.
