Around 160 guests were evacuated after a fire broke out at a Travelodge in Brentford, west London, in the early hours of Wednesday morning (December 4).<br /><br />One guest named Jay, who was staying at the hotel, said: "The fire went up the inside of the cladding and into the roof. Everything on level four could be potentially affected.<br /><br />"We heard the smoke alarms go off and we just thought it was a general false alarm so we got dressed, came downstairs and saw it wasn't a false alarm. Looked to the lefthand side of the building and seen the bike shed was on fire."<br /><br />Around 100 firefighters were called to the blaze which has now been brought under control. The cause of the fire is unknown.
