Eltham Gateway Hotel

Quiet area, easy parking, friendly staff

I booked this place as it had a restaurant and bar but discovered after checking in they were closed and it appeared they had been closed for a while, so that was disappointing. Bed was comfortable and room was clean but decor very dated. There were no point points next to the bed so charging phones overnight was a nuisance especially as there was no bedside clock and I use my phone as an alarm and to check the time overnight.

Was down in Mel for a party it was close and handy for that

Okay for a short time

Very comfortable stay

Noisy, communication issues! Lack of facilities! Reception not helpful!

Good locations

Hotel definitely does not look anything like advertised. Pretty run down and not maintained well. We were there for a wedding and decided to go up a little early to relax and couldn’t even use the spa in our room due to lack of hot water. When reporting it we were told to “wait a few hours”. Tried again in the morning with same issues. Also there is meant to be a restaurant but it was closed. No room service or mini bar and manuals refer to “dial 9 for reception” and there is no phone in the rooms. Also no one bothers to come and turn down the rooms during your stay. I reported the spa again on check out to which I was told someone would call and organise compensation - but a week later and it never happened. We were also told by another couple staying that they tried to check in at 4pm and their room was “trashed” and not even cleaned yet. Definitely won’t be coming back here again, very disappointing

Stayed for a wedding, so just one night. It was ok but they need to work on their cleaning… ours was barely average and several others were bad. I take my own pillow everywhere and was glad, the one provided smelled

comfortable but appears run down and could do with a good clean
