Our stay at The Gate of London was great. The staff was beyond courteous. The room was clean and had a wonderful view from the window. Loved the amenities as the walk in bath, the kitchenette and most of all the 24 hour lounge.

I stayed for a week!! This property does not operate like a traditional hotel. Housekeeping only comes on the 3rd and 5th day of your stay, which I didn’t know beforehand. By day three I was literally running out of toilet paper. This isn’t the staff’s fault- everyone I met was friendly and helpful - but the policy itself isn’t very guest-friendly. There’s also no phone in the room to reach the front desk. You have to call from your own cell. If you’re an international traveler without a calling plan, you’re out of options and have to physically find someone to help you. The TV was difficult, and I couldn’t get the Chromecast to work. I was told someone would come the next day to fix, but no one ever showed up. On the plus side, the mini oven and spacious fridge were great for keeping and reheating food. However, the bed was extremely firm- if you like rock-hard mattresses you’ll be fine, but I woke up with a sore neck. The bathroom is also tiny; you can basically wash your hands while sitting on the toilet. Overall, the location was good as east London has so many great food options and activities. It Is also right next to the Aldgate station so easy transportation. This might work for you if you want apartment-style features (oven, fridge) and don’t mind limited service, but for its price it is very different from a standard hotel and travelers should be aware before booking.
