Amazing place to stay in the heart of London. Hotel is very good. Rooms are very clean. Staff is very friendly and polite. Excellent service. Special thanks to Samina and Renata for taking care of us during check-in and making our check out very smooth. Located within 2 min walk to Aldgate East tube station- making it convenient for commute. Some other main attractions like Tower Bridge, Tower hill are also walkable from here. Close to several good restaurants. Ideal place to stay while visiting London.

Stayed here for 6 nights. I had thought I booked the room with breakfast, but it apparently wasn't part of the package I asked Expedia to contact the hotel, but they were unsuccessful in making contact. At the end, it worked out since the Gate offers kitchenettes in each room. I just hope I didn't overpay for the room. The start wasn't great, however, when the room was out of conditioner and short of towels on the first night. I contacted the AI Concierge, which was not the most convenient way, but the only way you can communicate with any employee is to talk to the AI by phone. I had asked twice by AI and the third time in person downstairs. The housekeeper came the next day with these items. The hotel is great if you don't have many requests or needs, but if you do, it may be difficult to get a hold of someone. Pros: -Great location to commute into central London. Nearby multiple Underground and bus stops -Grocery stores close by -Comfortable beds and black out curtains Cons: -Difficult to reach staff or management to address concerns if they arise -Chromecast didn't work in room, but we didn't bother to contact AI concierge -The Gate had certain time slots designated for breakfast by which floor you are on, which isn't ideal if you are on a schedule. For example, floors 16-20 assigned to go to breakfast at 9:45-10:15am. -They advertise a "5th-floor lounge features a modern self-pouring wine stage" but this was not seen

Sent two emails asking for something special for my wife in the room to celebrate our anniversary but got no response. We had two single beds pushed together in the room which was the worst way to spend our anniversary. The bottle of still water in the room was opened before our arrival. Overall I would not stay here again.

Great hotel, nice modern and spacious. The reason for no 5* was the breakfast, only hot food was beans and eggs. For the price I would have expected more options, maybe some cold meats or traditional breakfast items. Barring that, great stay

We didn't have breakfast so can't comment. However, were asked to pay for our stay when we arrived but had already paid so had to provide evidence. The room was very small and not up to spec cleaning wise. I spoke to reception about the size of the room and was told this was what I had booked. I don't know if the hotel was full or not but wasn't given the opportunity to upgrade. There were used coffee pods in the coffee machine, the kettle was dirty, the towel rail was broken and the room could have done with a freshen up paint wise. I had read reviews prior to booking and they were all very good - perhaps we were just unlucky.
