3 of us (all adults) stayed for a total of two nights, on either side of a road trip. I booked on the hotel's own website. Each time we had a triple room. Room size was good. Location of the hotel is very central, very convenient. Free wireless internet was a highlight -- one of the reasons we chose this... more

We paid an average of AUD 71 a night for 4 nights at the Criterion and I must say it was well worth the money and more. Rooms were spotlessly clean, especially the bathroom which was again spotless. More than enough space for 2 (we took a double room but there was one queen and one single bed in our... more

I stayed there from 11-13 May 2009. 1. the hotel is old and noisy. 2. I read about the noise from road work from a previous review, thought it was just a once off thing. 3. My friend was charged AUD30 for an hour late for check out. She's a seasoned traveller and said most hotel allows +1 hour late... more
