Heaven is only gay on some nights. Other nights it does have a fairly high gay:straight ratio, but the atmosphere is good and it fits right in to the armin van buuren/PVD style.
Gallery is pretty good, but I heard the worst set i've ever heard from a pro DJ there (Oakenfold, who spent his time hitting on the girls in the dj booth, screwed up every mix, and played one track three times in a two hour set ("Rapture", because he knew it was popular)). Expect a crowd comprising at least 50% posers who aren't there for the music (though they tend to leave around 2am) and really long lines outside.
If you really want to do some good London clubbing, head for Brixton, where you'll find The Fridge, Mass, the George IV, Club 414 and Dogstar. They play hard trance, hard house, psy trance, techno and acid techno, so the music is pretty hard, but the party atmosphere is the best around. Should the desire take you, Club 414 hosts afterparties on Saturday and Sunday mornings named Milk and NRG respectively, which start at 5am and go on until 2pm.
S.E.One also has the occasional huge trancefest, and if there's one that coincides with your visit, i strongly suggest you go. The club is located in the arches underneath a railway line, and it feels like a huge psychedelic dungeon.
