I wouldn't try to house them together as the guinea pig is going to get a lot larger then the hamster.
It can be done hamsters can be put with guinea pigs. I had a hamster and a guinea pig together at one time because they were both alone. As long as you watch them a while when you first do it to make sure they don't fight then it should work out fine. I had a golden hamster i wouldn't try it with a dwarf hamster or anything that small. But as long as they don't fight and the guinea pig don't hog all the food then it should be ok. But if you have more then 1 hamster and more than 1 guinea pig i would not try it.
THIS ANSWER IS CRAZY HAMSTERS AND GUINEA PIGS SHOULD NEVER BE HOUSED TOGHETHER. JUST BECAUSE IT WORKED ONCE DOES NOT AND I REPEAT DOES NOT MEAN IT WILL WORK OUT IN MOST CASES!!!!!!!
This answer is horrible. No, they can NEVER be housed together. A guinea pig can only be housed with another guinea pig!
do NOT put a guinea pig and hamster together, the guinea pig is going to get much bigger than the hamster. plus they need different foods.
