Great Hotel

Stayed at this hotel a few years before when it had the Taj brand, was good good. Now Taj have renamed this as the Gateway Hotel to represent good value business hotels and it certainly was. Really enjoyed the stay, staff were very helpful and food was pretty good also. If I am stuck for a hotel in Vadodora, this is my first choice hotel.
