Guy's Hospital Clubs' Union was formed in 1891, on the amalgamation of various societies and clubs established for students and staff of the Hospital and Medical School. The constituent institutions included the Football Club, Athletics Club, Cricket Club, Bicycle Club, Guy's Hospital Gazette, Tennis Club, Physical Society, Prayer Union, Rugby Club and Student's Club. The Clubs' Union grounds were purchased in 1891 and situated in Honor Oak, London. The Clubs' Union was later known as Guy's Hospital Medical School Clubs' Union and later became the Students' Union.

The Students' Club of Guy's Hospital was established in the 1882. The Club provided a dining hall, cafeteria, lounge and common rooms in the residential college of the medical school. The club also ran two common rooms, a table-tennis room, music room, billiards room, committee room, bar/lounge and quiet games room in the Newcommen Street premises of the school. The Students' Club was reformed in 1958 on its amalgamation with the Students' Union. The Clubs' Union Council merged with the Student's Club in 1973.
