Conveniently located right in the centre this is a super friendly pub and ideal for anyone wanting to catch up on sport or looking for an early morning drink, since it opens from an early hour. Bar staff are pleasant and the large screens throughout give a modern sports bar vibe. Plenty of drink options are available and prices reasonable. Food isn’t offered until around midday but the crowd prior to that friendly. Great place and I’ll be returning for sure!

Good beer at a reasonable price served in a friendly, fresh and clean environment. Had some food off the menu which was to our liking as well, but a side order of chips with gravy will do for two hungry mouths. Hope to frequent again before moving on from Sydney.

Upon entering the hotel, an unpleasant odor greeted me, and the reception at the bar felt unwelcoming. The staff, particularly the lady who assisted me, seemed disinterested. The absence of an elevator forced me to carry a heavy suitcase up two floors. The room, though compact, emitted an unpleasant and funky smell.

We flew down to see an exhibition at the Australian museum and to see Corey Taylor at the Metro theatre. The Criterion was the perfect accommodation. Inexpensive, central with a great downstairs bar and delicious food. We'll definitely be back
