The bed was not as clean as it should have been. Dust balls and other lint that made it seem like it was not recently cleaned. Lights in bathroom didn’t work so took a shower in the dark. On the last evening, there was a loud buzzing sound all night. I slept 2 hours and then boarded a 9 hour flight. Liked the facilities but disappointed the room didn’t seem to be checked for things like lights just not working.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Sheets/pillows on the bed smelled horrible, like they'd been sweated on and used. No real room cleaning, even on request. Weird shower that gets entire bathroom floor wet. Quite noisy from traffic in the area. We got a note on the second day that water would be unavailable all day on our third day.. first time I have ever been told in a hotel that water is not available! Staff were nice. Concept is nice, and the tea/coffee is a nice perk.

Good location, super close to the Aldgate East tube station but sometimes the opening to it was closed in the morning so we had to walk further. Not the hotel's fault but that was so annoying. The hotel is clean and new.

Perfect pad for London break.
We wanted to be in London and to be in easy access of all ours events we were attending. I considered staying close to London Bridge but for the price I paid at The Gate I would have got just a bedroom and shower. The Gate offers a minute walk to Aldgate East Station with a wide variety of restaurants in short walking distance. The best part is we had a whole apartment with views of London. We chose the Penthouse and felt we got a bargain. Separate lounge to the bedroom with a dining table for four. The kitchen was compact but tick almost all the boxes. There was no toaster so we used the oven, problem solved. There was a washing machine and dishwasher but for a three night stay was not needed. The bathroom was filled with top quality shampoo and conditioner too. In the fifth floor you have access to 24hr hot and cold drinks if you should need and plenty of seating to relax if you want to be out of your room. There was even an outdoor section with a bbq that my husband saw. All in all I would happily visit this hotel again as it was convenient to access to London and was spacious for the money. The reception staff were also fabulous and friendly.

Amazing place to stay while in London! So close to the Algate East underground station, making accessing the tube very easy. Walking distance to Tower Bridge and Tower of London, as well as many other attractions. Hotel itself is phenomenal. So clean, delicious lounge hot and cold beverages, and exceptional service. The room was the perfect size and had everything we needed. Highly recommend and would stay again!

Great location, view, and room. Loved having the free drinks on the 5th floor. Also enjoyed using the outdoor terrace. Real plants in the lobby and bamboo (I think) cards really are a nice touch. Breakfast was served in the same area that everything else is free so I grabbed some thinking that it was also free.. that was a bit confusing, and staff acted as if I was trying to steal a five pound meal. Need more signs and better communication. Other than that, everything was lovely.
