My mum and I stayed for one night the staff were friendly, check in was quick and easy. The room was a good size and the second floor, the bathroom do was a bit strange made of frosted glass. We used the restaurant the steaks are good. Would stay there again

i have been a regular of the Gateway Hotel and i have to say since my last visit i didnt recognise it there has been some major removations and it looks fantastic the room i had was a club room a big improvement from the old standard rooms we stayed in keep up the Good work i wll be back.

Let's remember - we aren't paying huge money to stay here. The rooms are clean and comfortable , thankfully renovated and the bathroom is fairly modern

Air conditioning would be nice and I wouldn't stay here if it was a hot day

My room service was ok, steak was overcooked and having a drink with my meal comprised of visiting the bottleshop next door ... Lack of car parking was also a worry

But - again, not too expensive

We had been recommended this place by the Visitor Centre in Devonport, and were happy to accept their recommendation. The room was clean, big enough and well laid out, and the staff were friendly. The only niggle was the smell of paint from the ongoing refurbishment.

The trouble didn't begin until we were tucked up asleep at about 11pm that night. This was when the first guests leaving a party or bar downstairs congregated at the exit and talked very loudly amongst themselves. We were on the second floor but the noise was very clear. Our friends, who were staying in a room facing the other way, Fenton Street, had the same issue. When the party started again at midnight, we called reception and asked them to move the crowd on, and tried to get back to sleep (although the party people were obviously reluctant to move on).

At 2am the party started AGAIN! Our call to reception was a little less pleasant than before, but again action was slow in coming. In fact, we then had staff emptying bins full of bottles and cans outside our window.

All in all a shocking night's sleep for us and our friends, and little or no help from management on the noise issue.
