The rooms were uber basic! No side tables, trading lamps and only shared bathroom, toilets. It was VERY noisey with a beer ‘garden’ right under the rooms. If the Aussie ‘outback’ wants to have people stay longer, it needs to improve. It’s. All very well being an old ‘traditional’ hotel. That was ok in the 1930’s. It’s 2026 now!!

We stayed in the "Princess" room at the Criterion which has its own bathroom. It is an old hotel but the room has been refurbished and is great value for money. Very spacious and lots of old world charm. There is a pub downstairs so a bit of noise from that but convenient for dinner. We stayed during the week so wasn't that noisy.

my rating is base on the fact that A: the hotel is quite an old building so so modern facilities are limited or non existent B: in regards to noise this is a pub in the centre of the Warwick CBD so noise is to be expected. The room was bare but the bed was comfortable and the pub central to everything (well almost everything). The staff were friendly at check in. I enjoyed my stay and would be happy to book again.

Criterion certainly has that country charm, the staff were exceptionally good and friendly and very helpful. The staff make the Criterion great all over. Some of the patrons shod probably seek counselling or check into rehab. The staff deserve a 10/10 for all the crap they put up with. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay there.

We stayed in "the Apartment" at the hotel. Beautiful spacious room/lounge/kitchen and best of all airconditoned. Be aware is says 1 queen 1 single in the advert. Single is a mattress on the floor. Food from the bistro was amazing even with it being a very busy night. Steak cooked to perferction and Parmys to die for. Will be back.

It is central to other towns, convenient, easy parking, no cleaners on weekend and as a result, bins in toilet & bathrooms are over flowing. Buckets on hallways for water leaks. Lack of ventilation. I recommend it for stop over of a couple of days. Good for adult travels and work for its convenience but not with children.
