Great hotel in a great location. I regularly stay here, as the hotel is clean and safe. Staff are amazing and the breakfast staff are also very attentive. Sadek and the other staff at breakfast ensure you have everything you need. The rooms are spacious and have everything you need.

This hotel is lovely. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, our room was perfect and very clean. The train station is just a few minutes walk away and there are plenty of places to eat and drink in the shopping centre right outside. The hotel was quiet at night and we had a a very goods night sleep. Would recommend staying here.

This is one of my favorite hotels in London, and the staff truly make each stay unforgettable. A special thank you to Andreea for going above and beyond to make my visit extra special! I’d also like to commend the amazing reception team, especially the lovely blonde lady who works evenings – she always makes me feel so welcome and valued whenever I stay. I’m already looking forward to my next visit in November!

The hotel is excellent. They had my room ready even earlier than expected, and it was spotless. Everything worked perfectly, and they were very kind. I'm a solo traveler. If you’re looking for comfort, soft sheets, and top-quality amenities… this is your place.Additionally, the location is excellent, a little far from the center, but with a shopping mall just meters away and all transportation connections.I am very grateful for everything; it was worth every penny.

What a superb place! All the staff were truly friendly and helpful. It began the second we walked through the door, where we were greeted by offers of a superb cold refreshing fruit smoothie. Rooms are immaculate, and spacious. The restaurant food was top quality, with exciting views across London. The hotel is just over the street from the WestField shopping centre, with parks nearby. Thoroughly recommended.

A nice stay with some unexpected service issues from what's billed as a highly rated Hilton property.Firstly the rooms are clean, comfortable and modern. The shower was fantastic. However a design flaw means that you can't turn the bathroom light on without illuminating the bedroom which makes getting up in the middle of the night disruptive for your partner/family in the same room. Also no complementary water was a surprise given the cost of rooms.A couple of issues such as our room not being ready after 3pm to check in and the hotel contesting that breakfast wasn't included on the two rooms we booked was frustrating. I had to spend time calling Hilton Honors to get this confirmation in writing because apparently The Gantry don't hold the booking info and cannot confirm with Hilton reservations which is hard to believe.The hotel also advertised the rooftop bar which is actually operated by STK. Unless you are eating there, don't bother as you'll be treated like a second class citizen which seemed to be par for the course at Gantry. No table service, no drinks menus given to us despite more staff than customers when we visited for cocktails.The coffee counter on the ground floor was fantastic though and the staff there know what they are doing and are very pleasant, be sure to try it out! Same goes for the breakfast team and the eggs chef, they were great.

Very nice hotel. The rooms were super clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. My husband and I had a lovely stay. A big thank you to the receptionist—she was really lovely. The same goes for the staff at the rooftop restaurant, as well as Sadiq during breakfast. He was extremely helpful 🙏🏽.

I stay at the Gantry frequently due to work and have rarely been disappointed. All the staff are incredibly courteous and recognise the repeat custom. With special mention to Sadek and the team at the restaurant. The rooms are comfortable, showers are modern and spacious... with excellent food. Thank you for making every stay pleasant! See you all again... next week.

A couple of words come to mind when thinking of The Gantry Hotel and that is sublime and exceptional!This was my first time travelling abroad and to London itself while attending a conference. The staff are really friendly, the rooms are neat and tidy and the Union restaurant's food is simply wonderful. They even allowed me to check-in two hours earlier when I arrived which was awesome.I helped myself to a double helping of breakfast each morning as it was just so so delicious. Sadek and the rest of the staff at the The Union really went above and beyond to ensure that breakfast each morning was an enjoyable experience.Not sure when I'll have the opportunity again to visit London, but all I can say is that The Gantry is well worth the money if you're looking for a place that is close to a train station (Stratford International and DLR) if you want to go exploring everything London has to offer.Even if you're not an explorer or here on business the parks surrounding the hotel are also sublime, picturesque and worth checking out as well!If I could give The Gantry a rating oit of 10 it would be a 12 for sure. Here's hoping I get the opportunity again to visit London in the near future as this hotel will be my choice of residence again when visiting.RegardsStoneCold (aka Leon)
