old fashioned hotel, but clean and comfortable, needs a huge refurb, staff were friendly, and location was the best bit as very close to everything, shops and restaurants. I would stay here again as price was really good compared to other Hotels

I had enjoyed my stay at the Criterion Hotel. It was quite comfortable and most of all the convenience of the location to some Historic places and building, the Jetty and other locations where we meet our tour Buses for the scheduled tours. It was an added bonus to be able to make coffee or tea. I ate outside of... More

This is the second time I have stayed here, it's cheap and offers wifi and complimentary drink on arrival. The wifi is a little slow and unpredictable and the rooms basic. I'll probably stay here again, not for the quality but for the price and location. Get a good deal on wotif it can out cheaper than a private room... More

The hotel is a grand old lady that needs a bit of TLC, but the rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were very helpful. The location of the Hotel is magic, with the free bus just outside the door. A multitude of shops, cafes and restaurants all within a few minutes - and an IGA just beside the entrance.... More

The hotel is somewhat scruffy - but if you aren't worried about the decor then I would recommend this place. Centrally located - 2 minutes from the shops, 5 minutes from the Swan River, 10 minutes walk up to the station. Bus stops to King's Park and the airport also very close. The reception staff were very friendly and always... More

My room was very basic. The decor was quite old and dated. The bathroom relaly needed a refurbishment. The accommodation was adequate. However, the location is brilliant, walking distance to the main shopping precinct and restaurants and cafes all very close by. For what you get the price is expensive compared to other capital cities but for Perth I suppose... More

Well located in the middle of Perth, less than a blocik from the mall and three from the Swan River. This hotel is a faded old thing, badly in need of a facelift. BUT - if it were done up, the prices would surely rise. Overall very good value for money, comfortable if rather run down. Free wireless internet was... More

Yes, I agree with previous reviews. You do get what you pay for. The location is great, with the free bus stop about 100 metres away (Red Line & Green Line I think - runs about 15 minute intervals) , close to rail (if you want to get to Freemantle), walking distance (about 20 minutes) to wharf for ferry to...

We spent 2 nights in this hotel. We wanted some relatively cheap accommodation within easy walking distance of most places in the Perth CBD. The location was excellent. It was very close to the Hay Street Mall, Barrack Street Jetty (for Swan River cruises, Swan Bells etc.), Perth Mint, St Mary's Cathedral and many restaurants and shops. There was even... More
