I think the gate is really nice and comfortable to live in. Very quiet at night too. The interior design is also very simple. Combining various factors, it is really a very cost-effective accommodation

This is lovely accommodation. The gate was willing to give me a place to stay when I was urgently looking for a short term rental. Everyone here is warm and welcoming. The flats are clean and well equipped and very convenient. The layout of the rooms is also very comfortable and makes you feel at home. All in all, I love it here! Would love to stay here for a long time. I would recommend the gate to everyone coming to Sheffield.
Hello! Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so happy to hear that you are enjoying your time with us. Kind Regards, The Gate Residents Team :)
Rooms are very nice but would recommend making sure you look before booking. some rooms are dark and don’t get the most light, same with the kitchens. lots of study areas and stuff. overall a great place to live in
Hello, Thank you for your review! We are happy to hear that you are enjoying you time here at The Gate! The Gate Residents Team :)
I’ve spent the last two years living here. The staff are exceptionally helpful, always polite and willing the help. The building and rooms are modern, clean and fit for purpose. The facilities are brilliant. The price is slightly more expensive than other student properties but considering the facilities and service is it worth it.
Hello, Thank you for your review. It's great to hear that the staff have had such a positive influence on your stay here at The Gate. Thank you for your feeback on living with us at The Gate! The Gate Residents Team
The best part about this place is the location and the staff
Hello! Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback. The Gate Residents Team :)
It’s a really good building to live in especially for first years, gives good opportunities to engage with new people who are also living in the building
Hello! Thank you for your review. We are so happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us. The Gate Residents Team
Pleasant, modern student accommodation. However rooms are a lot smaller than made out and struggle to fit two people in. In a flat of 9 but kitchen only has 2 fridge/freezers so not even a shelf each. Also cupboard space is minimal. On several occasions the staff in reception have wrongly placed my parcels with another flats number although clearly stating the right one, when pulled up they joked it off. Staff can be abrupt and not very helpful, and although advertised to do social events not many are held. Apart from this it’s in a great location for the city campus and many things nearby, also facilities such as the gym and common areas are great to use.
Hello member667015, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review about your stay at The Gate. We appreciate all feedback and take your comments on board. We are sorry to hear that you feel the rooms are a little on the smaller side, and that the cupboard space in our 9-bed apartments is minimal. If you would ever like to discuss this in person, a member of the residents team is always happy to help. In relation to your parcel’s being placed on the wrong shelf, as you can imagine we have a high volume of parcels coming in and out of reception on a daily basis. We will ensure all members of the team are aware and are more thorough in our parcel logging process. We encourage all our residents to follow us on our socials in order to stay up to date with what is happening within the property. We do our best to communicate this via posters around the property and through our Check In emails. Please make sure you follow The Gate to ensure you don’t miss out on anything. We are pleased to hear that you enjoy our common areas and gym space. If you would like to speak with a member of the team regarding any of the points raised, please feel free to get in touch. Thank you, The Gate Residents Team
Been an absolute joy living here this year! I had an absolute nightmare with my last accommodation but moving to the gate was the best decision I’ve made. The staff are all very welcoming and resolve any issues you have promptly. The modern building is amazing with so much space to socialise and study. I chose a studio this year but have socialised in other shared flats and every room is well worth the money. I would definitely recommend The gate to anyone, I’d say it’s the best accommodation in Sheffield! My only complaint is that studios do not have an oven like shared flats do, so I invested in an air fryer (Studios have hobs and a combi-microwave), but for £40 an air fryer will do most jobs anyways!
Hi Connor, Thank you for the great review! It's so lovely to hear how much you enjoy living at The Gate! Thank you for your feedback around the Ovens, and a great tip with the Air Fryer! Just a reminder, we do have the shared kitchen space on the Lower Ground, opposite the gtym with an oven in if you ever wish to book it out to use! Just pop to reception if/when you would like to use the space! Tha Gate Accommodation Team :)
Great building and really close to city centre and uni

Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us! The Gate Residents Team
Absolutely superb!!! Great value for money, staff are caring and attentive; I feel as if they actually care unlike other place where it’s just a pay check! Haven’t had much of a social experience due to COVID, however there have been online quiz nights and treasure hunts which were very entertaining to say the least 😂
Hi Lewis99, thank you for your lovely review of The Gate. We have passed on your comments to the entire team who send their thanks for the lovely message. We hope to welcome you again soon to experience the building and all the social spaces in full! Thank you, The Gate Accommodation Team
As a third year student, this has been the ideal place for me to live in the last year of my study. Central to Sheffield there is close transport links to my workplace and to travel home, as well as easy access to the university campus and shops and restaurants in town. It’s a shame that living in the pandemic we haven’t been able to make proper use of the facilities but I’m sure they will thrive in the future, the reception staff have been great at handling any troubles - thankyou!!
Hello, thank you very mch for your review from your time living here at The Gate! We are happy to hear that the accommodation tam were able to help you with any troubles you may have faced. We hope you enjoyed living with us for your final year of university and we wish you the best of luck for your future!
Stayed during the pandemic so couldn’t access all facilities, however if we were able to it would have been a better overall experience. I did enjoy my stay however despite this and the staff provided a friendly atmosphere. The building was also very modernised and clean and the views from the upper levels made the stay worthwhile
