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.

Tidy and neat typical old hotel accommodation. Not much information on check in and did not know what to do with the key when we left. When we left at 8 am, hotel was locked and no staff to speak to or give the key to. Had to return later in the morning to return the key. That was inconvenient.

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.
Only problem for me as pensioner was no chair to sit on in room. Simple straight back chair would have been useful. Also handrail on 3 steps on 1st floor landing between lounge and room 14 where I stayed.
The accommodation is "old world" and is both charming and comfortable. We stayed in the "flat" and found it suited us nicely for the Leyburn and winery trips. Also Morgan Park is close , if you enjoy racing cars!
After i had booked this room almost 6 months in advance.. THE OWNER cancelled it because he wanted to use the room- by that time all accommodation was booked out because of the festival. Expedia was impossible to contact and it not know it had been cancelled.

Stayed for a week during the recent Ulysses Rally. The one thing that really stands out is how good the staff are. In a word, exceptional. They are hard working and more than once went out of their way to accomodate requests.

Good value
Good price for a solo traveller just wanting a bed to sleep.
Old charm but very comfortable.
Very clean. Friendly staff.
Even had a slightly spooky incident from a resident ghost... it didn't like how I'd plugged in my mobile...went down to the common room to put a drink in the fridge... locked door behind me...only gone 2 mins... unlocked the room... my mobile was unplugged and moved. 👻
No other incidents but fascinating and I had a great sleep. 😁

Convenient location, friendly staff, value for money. It was a pub, priced accordingly. Not ashamed of bangers and mash, rissoles and gravy on the menu and unashamedly so. They weren’t pretending to serve locally made gourmet sausages and garlic puréed potatoes. We had a good time, when in Warwick next we’d stay again.

Such a pity. It’s a lovely historic building with adequate facilities. You can get a decent meal at the restaurant. The let down being that it does not have aircon so you need the window open. Our windows were directly above the beer garden which had clearly marked no smoking signs. Unfortunately these were not enforced by the staff ( and actually staff were seen smoking right next to one) which meant our small children were inflicted with a decent amount of passive smoke for hours. 4 of us are asthmatics and required medication due to the smoke. When I spoke to management she fobbed me off and did not care that they were breaking anti smoking laws as this area is not far enough away from where food was being served or building entrances. It is not adequately screened off as required. Bad management making for a bad experience
We booked a veranda room for an overnight stay. Loved that the hotel had a lot of history and the vintage look. Room was very spacious and comfortable and that it opened up onto the veranda that overlooked the main street. The shared lounge/tv room also had coffee making facility. The shared bathroom was very clean and tidy, also had a iron and ironing board. We will differently book again to stay here.
For the price this is good old fashioned pub style accommodation. Located in the Main Street of town and close to shops and restaurants.
If you have mobility issues this is not for you as there are lots of stairs.
