The Gateway Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel was easy to find, like it’s says in the name of”the gateway “. It’s the gateway to Windermere “. It only took us approximately 15 mins tops going to Windermere. Our room was on top floor. It’s small but it’s clean, very nice, quiet and cozy. There’s a touch modern, sophisticated chic look. We have a 3 yr old Chug called coco with us and as soon as we take her up in bed, she always go straight and position herself to the bolster pillow behind it , which is bigger than her right in the middle of the bed. The bed was comfortable . The 2 very nice chairs were very comfy to sit on while having a warm drink. The bathroom was nice and clean. I celebrated my birthday in there and I got complimentary bottle of proseco from the management. Thank you so much. The food was very nice and tasty. They allowed dogs with you in the restaurant which we thought was amazing because like our coco, she likes bread with butter. And they have comfortable seats with parasol outside the restaurant where you can just relax and have a drink. They have a huge front lawn where dogs like coco can play and they have their own parking space right infront of the hotel so you know your car is safe. The staffs were all very nice and welcoming to us as well as to coco especially Ionella. We will definitely recommend the hotel to our friends, family & colleagues. xx"
