Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Guildford
For most travelers, London Gatwick Airport (LGW) is the practical gateway to Guildford; it is not located in Guildford, but in a neighboring city, and offers the most efficient and cost-effective direct rail links. Heathrow Airport (LHR) is another major international hub located in a separate city, providing balanced options including frequent coach and rail transfers. While London City Airport (LCY) is convenient for business travelers due to its proximity to central London, it is quite far from Guildford and requires a multi-stage rail journey. The remaining airports, London Stansted Airport (STN) and London Luton Airport (LTN), both reside in neighboring cities and serve as distant alternatives. They generally involve complex transfers and longer travel times, making them less ideal unless you secure a significantly lower airfare. Regardless of your choice, pre-booking trains or private transfers is highly recommended to ensure a smooth transition from these regional hubs to your final destination in Guildford.

Great service and stay! Love the dinner and drinks there too. Also super super nice tea coffee snacks available and love the shampoo/body lotion in room. However, a bit inconvenient as I had a suitcase living on second floor but no lift. Also no gym/any common exercise space. But still great experience overall.FromUS$91

The hotel was okay you’re joining. Restaurant was very understaffed and we decided to eat somewhere else because it was taking far too long to be served with any drink. Drinks let alone waiting for food when we spoke to the manager, he basically said it is what it is. We felt sorry for the staff who clearly stressed and overworked.FromUS$59

Guildford|0.25km from city center
The hotel is in a central place and very close to the bus station and not far from the Guildford Railway station (walking distance - 12 min or so). Staff were very friendly and helpful. The only difficulty was that we had our room on the first floor and at the further end and as there were no lifts (it is a heritage building so they cannot make any changes to the structure) we had to carry our luggage upto the first floor and navigate other steps to the room. There was no other option. We did have help when we arrived but had to carry the luggage by ourselves when we left. This is, though, a very small issue as the property itself was one of the better ones we stayed during our trip. The rooms were certainly larger room than some of the other hotel rooms I have stayed in London or Guildford.FromUS$96

There is a parking lot, the front is a bar, and the back is a guest room. There are less than ten guest rooms, which is very cozy! Separate toilet and shower. The room is the living area, and all kinds of services are convenient.Very Good55 Reviews

The hotel is nice and small, but European hotels do. The breakfast buffet is 12 pounds and 15 minutes away by taxi from the centre of the UK. Just ask the front desk for help. You can't take a bus or walk because the doorway of the hotel is a lane without pedestrians, which is very dangerous. Going back to the graduation ceremony, the hotel in the town is either fully booked or too expensive, so I set it a little farther. Not far away is the new lands corner, the scenery is super good, you can drive there in 5 minutesFromUS$78
