8/10 Very good

Lovely!

Had a really lovely stay for mine and my sister’s 1st time here. We got upgraded to a suite which was beautiful. Thank you to Mohamed and everyone there for a brilliant stay. The customer service was top notch and the breakfast was seriously superb. A really diverse and very fresh selection, we were so grateful since you don’t get that in many hotels and especially at such a cheap price. It’s less than 5 minutes walk from the tube which was a major bonus and there were lots of shops and restaurants around so it wasn’t isolating. Can’t wait to come back soon!
Shenice, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice property with really nice staff. Gosia was very helpful. The property is also quite pet friendly. Nice place overall. The immediate area around it was not the nicest though but, you could walk other nicer areas that were close by.

10/10 Exceptional

Great spot in Whitechapel!

Perfect spot for a longer stay. I was in town for three weeks for work and needed a kitchen and washer/dryer. The Gate was a 20 minute walk from my office but a five minute walk to the nearest Tube station which came in handy often. A great macro market across the street with fresh food, and some of the best Indian food in London in a quick waking distance.

Stay Away

Stayed there 6 nights. I had to report the hotel to Action Fraud Police for not providing room service. This was not expected paying over 200 uk pounds a night through Hotels.com.
Andri, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was very nice
Barbara, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location – I’d stay again just for that alone. The room was decent but a bit limited in terms of amenities – no vanity kit or extras, though maybe that’s something you have to request (not sure). The rooftop was cosy and a nice spot to relax. One thing I didn’t love: as a Silver tier member, the hotel says you get a free bottle of sparkling wine, but instead I was given a drinks and snacks token. Ended up with just a glass of prosecco and a beer – bit underwhelming. Staff were polite, though not the most energetic

Very well designed room,fabrastic views. I arrived 4 hours early and planned to leave my suitcase but they found me an available room.that was fantastic. The kitchen in studio i opted for was perfect. Staff were lovely and place spotless so top marks to cleaners.

Fantastic service, lovely building with great designs. Only negatives are they close the lounge for private events and the lifts take forever to arrive.

C, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed the size of the rooms with kitchenette, sofa, nice bathroom and bedroom. We had a great view of the street below. Breakfast was good, but no hot choices other than a boiled egg. The area wasn't the best, but the underground was nearby so everything was acessible that way.
