Was lucky enough to stay in Narrandera during Autumn when the leafy streets and park were at their best. Lovely hotel with clean, comfortable and nicely decorated rooms. Owners were extremely helpful, with Murray helping me with my luggage, suggesting places to visit and eat in town, and cleaning my windscreen before I left. Hotel has been beautifully renovated.

Friendly Service, nice rooms and a good healthy breakfast ( maybe a few Yoghurt options could be added). Has a lounge area to relax in away from your room.or a courtyard is also available to do the same. Murray, the owner, is friendly and helpful. He even cleaned our windscreen before we left. There is also a secure carpark -... More

My daughter and I had the good fortune of breaking our journey to Melbourne in Narrandera and finding the New Criterion Hotel! What a delight. Lovely owners - so friendly and accommodating, without being intrusive. Our room was clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and well appointed. We made use of the guest lounge and tea making facilities, enjoying the big screen... More

Stayed for a night on our way to the Elvis weekend in Parkes. Much better than the countless motels that line our highways. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the venue has more to offer than other types of accommodation. Our hosts were very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. Murray even cleaned our windscreen before we left!... More

We were made to feel most welcome in this art deco restored hotel which operates as a B&B; it no longer operates as a pub. In the evening, we enjoyed the use of the small formal lounge/dining room upstairs for drinks. This was prior to dining at the excellent restaurant, Charlies, across the road. Our room was clean and comfortable... More

The New Criterion Hotel is a delight. A great contrast to the often drab and ordinary motel room the New Criterion offers something different with an other-worldly, art deco decor and an ambience that is transporting. There's a high-tech extremely comfortable lounge room and even a verandah off your bedroom to take in a view of the town and a... More

We arrived in Narrandera on our way to Melbourne and this was our last stopover and what a lovely little place! We had read the other reviews for the New Criterion on TA and what great service Murray the owner offered and for us this was exactly the same experience. It is a stately old building which is incredibly well... More

This converted pub in the heart of the town is a fantastic option for accomodation in Narranderra. The room was lovely. Linen was clean and crisp, fresh towels etc. TV, balcony all good. Nice continental brekki too. The host, Murray, is fantastic, and the main reason for us bothering to write this review! We are going to plan another trip... More
