Eltham Gateway is quite a big complex. I think it must have become quite rundown but the current owners seem to be doing renovations and upgrading. The rooms are large and beds are comfortable. Great hot water. More thought needs to be put into what is provided in the room eg 1 teaspoon, a hotplate but no cookware etc. The electrical appliances were, I think Chinese, but we were able to work things out. Some light and the aircon switches were in reverse...so if aircon appears not to work just turn the switch off. Our curtain was also not working properly but someone came promptly to fix it. The complex is on a couple of levels and has such potential. It looks like a lot of upgrades are being done cheaply but I can understand the upgrades would be costly. We were in the area for a funeral and the hotel met our needs for shops, cafes and venue. Overall our stay was comfortable and quiet, lovely hot water, and great aircon for the heatwave.

This review is aimed at feedback to the hotel. When we arrived at our room there was a ceramic bowl with ash and at least 6 cigarette butts inside. I washed my hands in the kitchen and touched some staining around the cupboard handles. Expecting it to be stain, which is fine, but it was grime from previous people. Having a 2 pillow option would be good. Light in bathroom very dim. Overall the grime and cigarette butts gave an uncomfortable vibe of poor cleanliness. Bed was comfortable.

For how much you pay per night, you would expect the rooms to be modern and updated, not something from the 1960’s. The stairs leading up to the room, felt like I was going to fall through them and the maintenance of the facilities could be done really nice to make the place look better

Room was clean. We only got 3 towels for 4 people. Not happy. Check in desk was unmanned at check in time. Had to call mobile number to get someone to attend. Good car parking, easy to find room as you get shown a map. Only one pillow per person, probably should be two. Needs to have ice cube trays if needed. Nice hot showers. Ample cupboard space in rooms and bathroom. Windows did not open so couldn’t get any fresh air. Check out was easy just drop room keys into slot and go.

I booked this hotel for my mother-in law…big mistake Do not book this hotel. The rooms are beyond dirty, mould in bathroom, a toilet seat that was so old and scratched it was hard to sit on. The light switches were broken and sometimes worked Several other wedding guest stayed there and their rooms were worse. Power points hanging out of the walls. The place is dangerous. The property also houses people that have come out of prision paid directly by the goverment Dont book you have been warned

We arrived at 9pm after driving from Adelaide.I had called the night before to say that was when we would arrive . No one at reception, we called the number, and the man actually sighed and groaned when I said we were there. We were shown an aerial view of how to get to our room. We had to carry suitcases up 2 levels of outside stone steps ( not lit) walk along an unlit outside dirt path to 2 flights of wooden steps. They were well lit and had a good hand rail but the rest was difficult and dangerous. When we arrived there was a cockroach on the bed and what appeared to be mouse excrement on the chair. The bathroom had mould and the light did not work above the mirror. We were too tired to complain and went to sleep. The next day no food was available and so we had to drive to find breakfast. We had come for a wedding and called to request more towels. The man on reception did not want to give them to us ; he argued 2 people only 2 towels but finally gave in. The towels did arrive promptly. We were staying in a spa suite. The next night there was a huge huntsman on the curtains. So BYO insect killer. There’s a lot of noise from neighbouring rooms: Shower / walking etc. I did not feel comfortable sitting on the furniture or sleeping in the bed. Luckily, we had brought our own pillows so something was clean.
