The Gateway Hotel

We really enjoyed our stay here. This is the second time we stayed here while visiting the town of Murphys! The hotel is clean service is really friendly and you are walking distance to coffee shop and restaurants.. the bed is so comfortable I didn't want to get out of bed! We will definitely be back.

Stayed here recently and it's a mostly nice, new hotel but not without some issues.The Good: The beds are soft and fluffy. There are robes, nice towels, a mini fridge, nice showers, and in room coffee. The pool area is resort like, clean, and well appointed. There is ample parking, electric car charging, three restaurants across the street, a gas station and convenience store on the corner, and it's all pretty convienently located to neighboring towns and sights. The Bad: Upon check in our room had not been cleaned properly. There was urine on the toilet seat and hair on the bedsheets. We had to request for it to be cleaned again.You have to request housekeeping every day if you wish to have the trash emptied or anything replaced. This seems to be a common hotel trend now and I really wish it wasn't. A couple employees were helpful but the staff seems not very well versed in hospitality overall. There was no safe in the room so I had to carry my valuables with me (laptop, jewelry, etc) in a backpack if I went anywhere.The room had a trendy barn door for the bathroom which looks nice but there is no privacy due to the giant gaps on either side of the door when you close it. Make sure you are very comfortable with whomever you're sharing a room with. The pool was not heated. It is absolutely ice cold and unless it's over 100 degrees outside it's extremely uncomfortable to get into the water. On a similar note, the hot tub was merely warm, not hot. On Monday there was no pool attendant and the bathrooms were locked so I asked the front desk twice to send someone to unlock them and they never did. We were there for about 4 hours and I kept having to walk back and forth to the hotel lobby... which brings me to...The Weird:The hotel pool is located across the street and on the corner. You can get there from the back parking lot though so at least you're not parading over in front of restaurants.The pool attendant on the weekends had a basket of towels to hand out but told us we needed to take them to our room when we were done because - "I don't know. We used to have a bag but we don't anymore." I would suggest getting a bin of some sort that housekeeping can empty once a day.There was a door in our room that we thought was a closet, but when we opened it there were no shelves and no rack to hang clothing or anything else. Just an empty room about the size of an average adult. I decided this must be a portal to another dimension. The location reminds me of a theme park in that it's all quite new, clean and manufactured looking. An ice cream shop, restaurants, a barber and a park like area in the middle with games, etc.... but it's also kind of in the middle of nowhere so it all seems really out of place with it's surroundings. Because of that, I felt like it would be a terrific setting for a horror novel. LOL...Anyway, you certainly could do worse but I can't see staying here again tbh.

Just stayed her Labor Day weekend. The rooms were nice with tall ceilings and nice bathroom decor and the folks at the front desk were very pleasant and helpful. Highly recommend.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Copperopolis and stay in this hotel. We were greeted by Elizabeth who made our stay very enjoyable. Excellent service! I used the gym and the pool. Both great to use. I would definitely visit and stay here again

Modern day, meets 1800s gold rush. The staff was friendly and helpful. Check in and check out was very easy. The room was clean and I enjoyed the Decor. They provide robes and an umbrella for you to use. You can purchase as a souvenir if you'd like. I thought that was a nice touch. The bed was a little soft for my liking but the bedding was cozy. They have the big fluffy pillows, so if you'd like a flat pillow I'd recommend bringing it from home. I would definitely stay again.

We had our daughter and son-in-law stay when they came to visit.The hotel is cute with nice decor. We had positive interaction at check in. However, for the price, the room was really small. The pool is in a strange place. Our daughter didn't think it was affiliated with the hotel. We also did not receive a receipt or email which we said we would. We have more family coming to visit soon. We would love for them to stay there because the location is so convenient and to support local businesses, but just too expense for a couple rooms for a week, I am very sorry to say.

Quaint hotel, great staff and the most amazing bed second only to my own!!Room was very clean, convenient food and wine within walking distance. Took our dogs to eacape the ridiculous illegal fireworks- they were welcomed by all.

Our room was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. It was a spur of the moment booking but they had toothbrushes, with tooth paste, for a reasonable price and the rooms had robes. There was complementary hot coco in the lobby. We left to star gaze around 2am and came back at 4am and felt pretty safe. We look forward to going back.

This is a great boutique hole hotel. They did a great job on the remodel and now there's lots of restaurants to choose from in the town Square. We will definitely be back.The bedding and linens were amazing. My wife and I loved it.

Just a picture perfect setting in an elegant hotel!Go in Wednesday night for the live music in the park
