We had a lovely 8 day stay at The Gate, and it would definitely be a preferred option for our future trips to London. Conveniently located near several Underground stations, with Brick Lane, the Whitechapel Gallery and Shoreditch a walk away, we found many options of restaurants to eat at, and great shopping at Old Spitalfields Market. The apart-hotel thoughtfully has a cleaning service every three days, a gym, and a lounge floor with food and beverages all day. Perhaps the only con in the room was the odd-sized sink to wash dishes, and not enough clothes hooks in the bathroom - but that’s really if one were to nitpick... All in all we really enjoyed our stay, and want to thank all the wonderful, warm and efficient staff of the hotel for looking after us.
