Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomSome more toiletries for the bathroom would have been welcome (1 roll of toilet paper and 1 sachet of shower gel provided for 2 people for 6 nights). It got quite hot in the lodge in the day time with the large windows, we stayed in May, i suppose it could be even hotter in Summer.
Central location, kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, quiet, calm and relaxing setting.

United KingdomThe parking wasn’t ideal. No parking on site and a 24 hour park 5 mins walk but had to keep moving it because you couldn’t stay there after 24 hours. The WiFi didn’t work on my phone, I did try putting code given on it. Also kept losing signal on TV.
It was in a perfect location for what we were doing. It was beautifully decorated and well equipped, though we didn’t cook much .

United KingdomWhilst we were able to find street parking, a parking permit would have been handy to park a little closer to the lodge. The lodge was generally clean, except for lots of cobwebs in the bedroom, dirty windows and some utensils had been put back in the cupboards without being washed first
Lovely quiet location right in the heart of Alnwick. The lodge had everything we needed and was well presented. We had a great stay. Would definitely here stay again.

United KingdomSome attention to detail is required with cleaning some cob webs and dusty areas, bathroom towel rail doesn’t work so the bathroom was cold and the towels damp, only one of the solar lights on the path to the chalet worked and the is a loose paving slab on the steps leading up to the accommodation. There is also a lot of crockery and glassware leaving little room to store groceries 16 cups for two people is a bit much.
Well situated for all local attractions, private and quiet. It was lovely for a relaxing break.

United KingdomThe walk up to the lodge had a fence covered in ivy which could have done with being cut back as the path is quite narrow. The lighting could be improved too. We would have preferred a king size bed which would easily have fit in the bedroom
Quiet location Definitely would return. Location was perfect for the town and amenities.

United KingdomThe bed is a double with a queen sized duvet. We are both fairly slim and struggled to share and had to use the blankets. We also found the electric radiators in the property come on at random points in the night, making a very loud noise when the metal expanded waking us up. Although mostly clean and tidy on arrival there was also quite a few cobwebs in the bedroom and dust around picture frames etc.
Well equipped and stylish decor right next to the castle. It was within walking distance to some nice restaurants too

United KingdomParking is on the street a distance away - no problem for us in the winter months, but could be a nightmare in the summer. Closest parking has a 4 hour limit. Next free spaces were max 24 hours. Take a torch if going in the winter! Solar-powered sensor lights don't light up the steps on the approach to the lodge. There's a torch in the hall but that's no help when you first arrive.. Hilariously, the keybox had frozen when we arrived, so we had to practice our heavy breathing to dial in the code. The WiFi never worked for us. But that's a very first-world problem and we coped.
Well kitted out, comfortable and very close to the centre of Alnwick. Couldn't be more convenient.

The lodge was so lovely, beautifully presented, loved the colour scheme and the sheer comfort it provided. Pleasantly surprised with all the extras provided in the kitchen, fairy liquid, kitchen roll and cling film. The location is practically in the town centre so close to everything you might need. Would definitely stay here again.

United KingdomThere wasn't anything to dislike, I would recommend staying at this place. The only thing would be the car parking, there is one not that far away that you can park for free just hope it's not full when you get back from a day out,because it gets busy.
The location was perfect, in walking distance from places to eat and shops, also it was not far to drive to see places. There were some lovely walks along the different beaches.

United KingdomIf I had to be picky I’d say that the salt cellar was empty (we left some salt for the next occupants). Seriously that’s literally the only negative I could think of!! What can I say - the property was wonderful!
We were very impressed with this property. It was very stylish, well equipped, extremely comfortable. The whole place was immaculate and finished to a very high standard! Some nice touches like DVDs available to watch and books to lend (although we didn’t use the latter). Absolutely brilliant location- central to everything but quiet and secluded.

United KingdomThe directions- once we found it things were very clear but initially I was looking for a lodge opposite the castle but in fact it’s in the garden of a terraced building and is hidden. It’s great and exactly the address but not what I was looking for. Like I said the lodge is gorgeous and being hidden was very private so absolutely no complaints but perhaps a photo of the door would help?
