Travel Tuesday: The Milestone, London

On a hot tip from my pal Ms. Place, I present the spectacular Milestone Hotel in London. Swoon!

The Milestone Hotel and Apartments are situated at 1, Kensington Court, just opposite the park and palace where Lady Diana used to reside. The Victorian house was designed by John James Stevenson (1831-1908) and constructed by Holland and Hennen in 1883-1884 with red bricks and pink terracotta dressings in the Flemish revival manner.

The picture reference for the Black & White conservatory is stunning, I saved a copy to my hard drive for future reference. Great concept for an upbeat, funky, but oh so posh restaurant.
Thanks,
