Perth is an expensive city to stay in so, while in some other places you mght get more for your money, vis a vis other accommodation in Perth, the Criterion is very good value indeed. I had a single room and was delighred with it. Not large, but quite large enough, with all that I needed to make me comfy... More

Right in the middle of the city; easy walk to attractions, jetty, shopping, eats. For the price you pay, its just great! Forget fancy business hotels in the city. This hotel is unique with its own charm considering its the oldest hotel in the city. Oh..and their cafe, we had dinner there on our last night. Their pasta/spaghetti were awesome... More

I took a punt on the look of the hotel (I was very taken by its art deco facade) and the low price. On arrival it exceeded my expectations on room size, character, location and cleanliness. Check in and check out was a breeze and the bed was comfortable and linen fresh. Shower was spacious with good water pressure.

I would stay here again just because of the location but it was probably my least favorite room in my 2 months of travel in Australia. Nothing wrong but just very plain -- almost like a worn motel room in the US for $65...but clean and useful for a one or two night stay. I liked the free internet computer... More

We stayed here for three nights and found it a good option. Don't expect anything modern let alone luxurious but the room was adequately furnished, the bed was comfortable and there was a decent bathroom. The aircon was a bit ancient but worked OK though I'm not sure if it would have been enough if we'd been staying at the... More

I had a short stay in Perth for only 1 night. This hotel is in a very central location, close to the Hay St mall and various bus stops. The rooms are rather basic but clean, spacious and functional. Room includes air con, bar fridge, hairdyer, tea & coffee making facilities, large TV, but no ironing board. From my room... More

Stayed for 6 nights. The hotel is located right in the CBD. Next to the hotel is a grocery store which opens 24 hours. There are halal kebab and nyonya penang restaurants on both sides of the hotel. 15 minutes walking distance to Perth station. 3 minutes walk to Hay St and Murray St Malls. Mcdonalds is at the corner... More

First trip to Perth with the family. Stayed for 4 nights. Hotel was good. Right smack in the CBD, which is walking distance to Perth Mint, Hay St & Murray St Malls, Museum and Art Gallery. There's a 24hr grocery/supermarket right next to the hotel. Lots of places to eat around the area too. Very convenient. Rooms were reasonably clean,... More
