Where to stay in Guildford
Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
The mall corner sets the pattern. Beds cluster near the intersection of 104 Avenue and 152 Street, where Guildford Town Centre draws shoppers from across Surrey and the surrounding parts of British Columbia, and where the two retail corridors carry most of the traffic. Away from that junction the neighbourhood thins out.
Rooms here suit you if shopping is the reason for the trip.

About Guildford
What are the main landmarks in Guildford?
A single mall does the naming here. Guildford Town Centre, a mall of 200 stores, occupies the intersection of 104 Avenue and 152 Street and gives the neighbourhood both its centre of gravity and the label used on maps of Surrey. The two streets are landmarks in their own right.
Along them run the retail corridors the neighbourhood is known for across British Columbia.
What is the history of Guildford?
The name travelled. Guildford takes it from Guildford in Surrey, England, and the surrounding municipality of Surrey carries the same borrowing, so a pair of English place names sit together on the map of British Columbia. Retail came to define what followed.
The corridors along 104 Avenue and 152 Street, and the mall of 200 stores at their crossing, are what the neighbourhood became known for in Canada.
