Feedback about Gateway Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Gateway Hotel is often praised for its modern and clean rooms, some of which are quite large and feature nice TVs, making for a comfortable stay. Its location provides convenient access to Rodney Parade, and the town centre is typically just a 10-15 minute walk away, with some guests finding it ideal for parkrun access near the river. Breakfast is generally well-received, though some have noted the limited brew facilities in the rooms, such as only one coffee cup provided.

My room, a Twin Room, was nicely clean. The breakfast offered a good variety. I really liked all the food!
I found the blinds don't do a good job at blocking sunlight. The window also let in a lot of noise. It was an issue.
