Good. but could easily be better.
Very Friendly and nice staff, great, cooked to order breakfast, handy, good price. But very noisy being next to the main road, all the time even through the night and very bright. double glazing and black out blinds would make all the difference. Bed was ok, bit hard. Still plenty of good points.

It’s good location close to Twickenham stadium. But straggling to find car park. The room in guest house is very small.

Disliked: Amenities
Pros: bed was decent, shower was hot, breakfast was simple but decent, and staff were friendly and helpful. Cons: the rooms are arranged around an outdoor courtyard but with internal-grade doors. As a result, the rooms are draughty and noisy. There is a lot of road noise and other guests can be clearly heard arriving and going. I was woken up at 5am by the sound of another room's power shower coming on. There was no desk in my room. As a solo business traveller I stayed because of the recommendations from similar guests, but I can't recommend it for that. It would be better suited for those heading for the rugby who plan to spend only a few hours in the room. If you do stay, pack ear plugs.

The room was clean apart from the curtains. I had a draft in my room, ok because it is summer though. Because is next to the roads, you hear cars honking sometimes, but is normal due to location, doesn't bother since you should expect it. Staff very friendly and trying to help since I arrived until I left, amazing hosts.

Basic guest house with shared facilities
Not sure what to say about this place, it is a very basic guest house with shared facilities. The guy on the desk was nice and helpful and it's in the shadow of the stadium so ideal if you're a rugby fan. The room I was in was quite small as was the shower room, so don't bring loads of luggage with you or expect to swing a cat!

My stay at Twickenham Guest House
I knew not too expect anything amazing as it's just a guest house. Basic rooms but they were good enough along with the comfortable beds to enjoy a good night's sleep. The cooked breakfast was satisfying and filling. I like that they provided a small tube of shower gel for you in the rooms

Booked this property late at night but wanted to ensure that everything was booked so called ahead, was met with a really rude gentleman over the phone who was just saying mmm everything I asked a question. When we arrived I went into the guest house where I had to ring a bell to be let him (perfectly fine as we got there late). I was met by the same rude gentlemen who again didn’t say much apart from handed me a paper form to fill in and the car machine to pay. I was then given a key and said your in room 15, it’s up the stairs - charming! The only conversation I had with him was what time do I want breakfast which didn’t even arrive! I knew I paid for a basic room but for £99 I thought I would get something a little bit better. I entered the room & there were 3 single beds each separated by a draw & a lamp. The main light didn’t work so I had to shine my phone light around the room to even see where I was going. To eat my food I had to put the bathroom light on!! Dust and spiders around the room & no heating so wasn’t a good nights sleep. We had to vacate the guest house at 11am so we all got up to have showers etc where there was a knock at the room at 10.40am where I was told check out is 11am do not be late! It was 11am and I was just brushing my teeth to which there was another knock saying it’s 11am! One of the reasons we booked the guest house was for the free parking, so you could imagine my face when I came out to a parking fine for £110!

Redecoration Required
The Team were really very nice, but the Place really needs a redecoration, it has gotten shabby. The Guest House is an extended house with rooms in The Courtyard, which at one time was probably the back garden. If it had a good spruce up it would be so much nicer

Disappointing stay
The guy who dealt with me during my stay was pleasant enough and coked an ok breakfast...but not amazing. My main unblemished was the size and cleanliness of the room.....yes it was a single but it felt like a cell....the walls and paintwork are dirty in poor condition....s was the carpet and net curtains. It was extremely noisy....especially at 6 am when the clattering started in the kitchen. During breakfast piles of laundry bags were piled up in the dining room. I was not happy but the sheets on the bed were clean so I decided to stay as I had no alternative.

Basic accommodation
The hosts were friendly and helpful but some didn't seem to speak much English. The room was cramped and hot, though they did provide an electric fan, and it really needed a coat of paint - walls were marked and grubby. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order though not particularly high quality food. Good bus services nearby.

Great location, terrible quality
If you need to be close to the stadium this is ideal. At best if you need a place purely to sleep this isn’t the best, the room was so hot and the fan was on a timer. So I had to wake up every hour in a pool of sweat to turn it back on. The shared bathroom was not the cleanest. I had to try and hose down the shower as there was body hair everywhere. The shower head alone was vile covered in limescale and therefore the water trickled out. The water was either scolding or freezing so I had to resort to washing in the sink in my room! Also a very dodgy kettle in the room that re boiled itself every few minutes. Not worth £55 at all, which I was told on arrival was a discount price.

Twickenham Guest House experience.
Having read terrible reviews of the hotel, we think these should be removed. The owners have obviously worked hard to smarten up and refurbish the hotel and offer good service in that 1pm check in and 11 am check out are offered. There is drinking water available in the dining room area all the time, with television on all the time there and a few magazines and a sofa in this room. The downside is that bedrooms are VERY SMALL, but one of our party was told of this before she arrived, and there is not much the owners can do about the small size. Two of our party occupied Bedroom 2 which is light and spacious, whilst we had 4A, which is bigger than some and Ok for we two. Good lighting in it, though natural light leaves it very dark. The location is close to the Rugby Stadium and one can walk into the main town in about 15 minutes. For meals, a pizza shop is nearer and there is a local food market and "Scrummery food" which was closed in the evenings.

Great location for Twickenham rugby yawnion ground. A bit noisy due to proximity to roundabout. Shower was hot and cold, but breakfast surprisingly decent and the bed was comfy. Nice service too.
