The place itself was really clean and spacious great view of London. The bed was comfortable. Good to have a small kitchen area if you were staying longer than 1 night. I felt that it was good value for money and I would stay here again.
My wife and I had a very good experience staying here. The location is brilliant as it's just outside the congestion zone but close enough to easily get around. The room was clean and spacious. We will definitely consider staying again next time we are in London
Fantastic stay. Excellent location. Very helpful and friendly staff. Room was very clean and spacious. Added bonus of being able to access the lounge area on the 5th floor. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.
Great hotel, I asked for a high fooor and was on a he 16th- amazing view. Very well equipped, super clean, comfy bed, nice toiletries, decent free coffee and a coffee pod machine on the room. Really impressed with it was overall

Very nice property, great views, quiet, comfortable, staff were also friendly. Not a huge fan of the nearby area, but it’s very easy to get everywhere. I would stay again.
We were pleasantly surprised by The Gate, especially the nice spacioius room including small kitchen, and small perks like free coffee/tee all day, that really makes a difference. We will certainly consider to come back as this kind of hotel compares well with any of the other places we usually stay in.
