8/10 Very good

reasonable price, great location 👍
robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfectly decent stay. You get what you pay for and so we weren’t expecting 5 star but couldn’t fault it for what we paid. Perfect location for the railway station and Brunswick centre. Good clean bedding and everything we needed
Ann, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Tiny little room, with a miniscule washroom; not the comfiest bed ever, but OK. I arrived early, well before check-in time, but they were very good about cleaning it and letting me in early. Ideally placed for travel from St Pancras; on transit routes for getting around.
Brigid, 2-night trip

The hotel was convenient to the Russell Square Underground station. I felt the area was safe.

Disappointing

Room was small shower was terrible and very dated needs updating breakfast poor
Valerie, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Be aware!!!

If you are in a budget, this place maybe an option, but I don’t recommend this place to stay, is pretty close from Russell Station(opens at 5:30am becareful), but if you go in summer time be ready to suffer with the head on the rooms, specially the ones on the basement. Please think twice and spend 100$ for something better!

Pleasant stay, will be visiting again as it’s close to my head office

Abigail, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff were friendly and helpful. My room was on the second floor and two doors down from reception. There was no lift which was a problem for me but staff did help with luggage. There was a deep step up into the bathroom which wasn't clear in the booking information. My room had tea making facilities but no milk. Breakfast was included but this was very basic - a couple of choices of cereal and a loaf of bread to make your own toast

Friendly team, very good location. Bathrooms a bit like holiday caravan bathrooms but fair for its star rating and price.

6/10 Good

Clean, a little dated but very cheap.

Great value. Staff were fantastic. Room was very basic but clean and all you need for a brief stay. I was only sleeping there, much better than anything near this price (multi occupancy hostel, no thanks). Perfect for my one night to avoid the replacement bus service and be fresh for work in the morning.

Quick London Trip

Quick check-in, friendly staff, nice clean room, great location near Underground & Eurostar stations.
Dennis, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Cheap but dont expect a good nights sleep

Shocking quality of bed, just so old that you cant even sleep on it, i had to sleep on top of the mattress to make it even close to comfortable but i guess its cheap! Single glassed windows means you hear traffic and people all night
James, 1-night trip

Very helpful staff, goid location for an overnight stay.
Anne, 1-night trip

Okay stay, nothing special

Basic stay. Friendly host. It was a room for the night. Shower needs a deep clean and shower head needs fixing
Andrew, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent price, great location, good service

Its a decent hotel at quite center of london. For a decent price. Much better than staying at the airBnB or hostels. Its close to chancery lane tube station and has plenty restaurants nearby. The breakfast is okayish but the hosts are very hospitable.
adarsh, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Room was dark and dingy. There was an empty coke bottle in the bed. The shower drain overflowed into the room. The WiFi we had to pay for (£2.50 per day per device) was terrible and intermittent at best.
John, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Young staff very obliging Older staff grumpy Breakfast was useful
Elaine, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Avoid!

In all my travels to England over the years I’ve never been in a worse hotel than the Guilford House Hotel. A rating of 5! Should be a 1. The gloomy room is like a jail cell, toilet and shower like a small broom closet (try toileting and showering in a phone booth), even though advertised for free internet the unfriendly receptionist wanted to charge me, no bed lamp, limited plug-ins, and the whole place stinks. If you expect breakfast, you better like peanut butter on toast with your instant coffee. On leaving I had to walk through a cloud of cigarette smoke at the front door created by the sons of the owners. Great hospitality!
