AH Gateway is a very nice hotel located around the theater of all shopping you need. My junior suite and Superior King Suite was great. I will always like staying at this hotel. The front desk staff is amazing and professional.

The room is quite big, but the sound insulation effect is average. Maybe it's because it's close to the road, so it's a bit busy at night. There are many choices for breakfast, which is very rich. The hotel has direct access to the gateway mall, which is very convenient for shopping and eating.

Aha Gateway was a pleasant experience for us. The staff are amazing and I was warmly and pleasantly dealt with during all my interactions. Special shout out to Smanga and Siphelele who went the extra mile to assist us with special requests and to Moses for being such a gentleman. Mbali for being super friendly at breakfast. We had a issue with the internet connection on the TV and the 2 gentleman that came out to assist us did so swiftly and professionally. The rooms were spotless and the beds were comfortable. 2 Thumbs up. Definitely a place I would consider for my future visits. Thank you once again.

My stay at Gateway was not the greatest experience. There is no privacy between the bedroom and the toilet/shower facilities especially when you are sharing with a teenage child. There was also a cockroach problem in my room on level 2. I ended up putting my luggage in my car just in case the little critters wanted to hitch a ride in my bags. I did not report this to the front desk as I literally only slept in the room. Our tournament had us leaving early and coming back late. I however mentioned it to the cleaning staff on departure who advised that fumigation was done about two weeks ago and perhaps the cockroaches are trying to escape. I was swatting them at 2am because they were on my bed!

Friendly staff even though they assume that just because U are African U speak and understand isiZulu,... For the second day I asked for a Vegan breakfast, but the chef gave me excuses about how he couldn't go to the supplier the previous day to get the supplies. Waited about 10min to get fresh sliced tomatoes from the kitchen. Rooms are always spotless. What I didn't understand was the loud music playing from the bar around 16:00 on a week , felt like I'm at some flats without a caretaker as I could hear the music from the 3rd floor. Overall, it's an okay establishnent. Very convenient because it's part of the Mall, so it made it easy to do shopping
