If you want somewhere with a clean, comfortable bed for a night or two then London Guards could suit you. Paid less than £60 for the night, with continental breakfast included. Bargain for central London. Nice quiet road, 5 minutes walk to tube. Hotel rooms quite old - some bath tiles held on with sellotape and the colour had gone... More

The hotel is neat the centre about 20 min walking to the Oxford street and near to the Hyde Park.Tube station is 5 min walk away. It is an old small hotel. The rooms are big for London hotel and clean with a small kitchen with nescafe facilities and a small fridge. We had a room for 5 (we were... More

The London Guards Hotel has a good location near Hyde Park, and it takes only 5-6 minutes with a cab to get to Oxford street. But the hotell needs desperately a make-over, and can someone please clean the walls and the roofs. They are very dirty. I booked the family room, the beds was ok, and the bathroom as well.... More

I was only in London for a day, to attend an event, and I wasn't the one to make the travel arrangements. I arrived at the London Guards Hotel--had to hunt just a little to find it--too early for check-in, but they allowed me to drop off my suitcase and told me to come back between 1:00 and 2:00. The...

We stayed here for 2 nights in October 2011, we stayed in the family room. As many others have said it could do with re-furb and new crockery etc. But It was clean and the staff were very friendly, it is in a good location and has rooms for 5. If your looking for a decent, clean hotel in a... More

I stayed in room 2G for a night (Fri-Sat). The hotel is located 800 metres from Lancaster gate tube station, in a neighbourhood with fancy cars :-) The hotel was pretty much as expected. Nothing fancy but no negative aspects either. (The breakfast was perhaps a bit boring.) More

No matter what was good about this hotel it was negated as this hotel has BED BUGS!! In Room 205, I woke up with one crawling on my neck and we caught a second one which burst with blood all over the sheets. We have pictures if anyone is doubtful. I called Venere in the morning as the incident took... More

Stayed as a family of 5 in one room (2 doubles and 1 single). As per other comments the decor is a little tired but the room was a good size and very clean. Whilst basic the hotel is good value and delivers on its promise of affordable, clean accommodation. Pluses Great value solution for family of 5 in London... More

I read Trip Advisor comments - before we booked the hotel - which my brother in law chose at London Guards Hotel. I do not complain and thought we will give the hotel the benefit of the doubt. We stayed for 6 nights and I must say that all that I read which was not so positive, was true. The... More

This hotel was a nightmare. The staff were unhelpful. Many of the rooms had no access to an elevator therefore we were hauling cases up several flights of stairs, with no help from staff, The advertised wi-fi connections did not exist and the staff were dishonest about its availability. The rooms had peeling paint and wallpaper. Altogether an experience I... More
