Cannot comment on staff as I didn't see anyone during my two night stay. In my room two light bulbs needed replacing, as did the light outside the bedroom door. The shower was very slow to drain and needs sorting. Minor points which I would have mentioned to a receptionist if there had been one. Otherwise all was fine - clean, comfortable and secure. Entry instructions very clear.

Very nice location near Clapham Common if you want to be more outside central London. Close to transit. The place was clean and easy to access. Only downside is it is on a main street with very loud vehicles driving by during all hours of the night.

I’m giving this property a 4 out of 5. Check in was staffless, I had to collect my key card from a lock box on-site. No problem with this. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. I think the property needs to invest in air conditioning for the rooms because I happened to be staying there on the hottest day of the year but it was miserably hot.

Really well situated, and close to the underground. Really lovely host and rooms are basic, but equipped with everything you need for a one-night stay with some characteristics kept from the original building. Thank you Gateway! :)

Served the purpose

It was clean and served the purpose. It was good that we could open the windows to cool the room down, but had to close them to sleep due to road & pedestrian noise.

Decent budget stay

Easy self check in and check out. Room was clean, towels provided, free WiFi, short distance from tube. Nothing fancy and decent budget hotel for one night away. Would use again.

The Gateway Hotel is my favorite stay choice in London. You feel like a Londoner when you stay here. The place emphasizes your privacy. Once you get you key card you don’t have to go through the lobby again. IThe best location
