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 KingdomAll was good. The room was not the biggest but it was big enough.
Very friendly staff. Wonderful evening meals. Super central location. Comfy bed. Convenient parking behind the hotel. Brilliant little micro-pub directly opposite. Highly recommend as a place to stay for a visit to Alnwick

United KingdomIt wasn't too much of a problem for me but for anyone with limited mobility, the rooms are up quite a lot of stairs. For those with a wide car, the tight entrance to the car park was a bit nerve-wracking (but plenty of space once in, which was great).
Beautifully decorated and clean. Friendly, hospitable staff. Great location, within walking distance of Alnwick Castle and the Alnwick Garden and just next to a bus stop for easy access to Almouth and other places. Very nice breakfast. I'd stay there again!

United KingdomAgree, the entrance to the car park is a little 'tight', but just take it slowly :) Other than that, no complaints.
Lovely hotel. We had a room on the second floor which was quite small but suited us as we only stayed for 2 nights. A great supply of coffee, tea, milk and biscuits which was a nice touch. The room was very clean. We didn't have breakfast, but actually ate in the hotel both evenings and the food was very good and plentiful. Good location for bars, restaurants etc. and also only half an hour to the coast. The castle and gardens are only round the corner and worth a visit. We would certainly stay here again when we visit Alnwick.

United KingdomThe bar area felt a bit like a youth club with friends hanging out and language that was unsuitable for a restaurant especially for the couples who were dining out.
A warm friendly reception. Great meal in the restaurant which on a wet night was appreciated. Comfort of the room. Free car park. Convenient location for the shops and castle

United KingdomMy only issue was that when the bar area is closed then access to the rooms is by stairs outside with a key fob to open the back door. I was on the third floor and I am scared of heights so no way would I be going in and out by the back exit. Although, to be fair one day I was due to be out at 7.00am and on checking they said at that time I would need to use the stairs outside but when realised I was scared they were going to arrange for a member of staff to come in earlier for me. Luckily I didn't need to leave that early in the end but they would have accommodated me. I was travelling on my own on this trip so coming in late after the bar shut wasn't an issue but if I had been with my partner I would have been worried about having to use the back stairs to get back to my room.
The staff were great and lovely clean room. Excellent location and free parking. I had breakfast both days and dined in the restaurant one evening and the food was lovely.

United KingdomNeeds secondary double glazing on the main road facing rooms due to traffic noise. Late evening staff need to remember there are guests staying over upstairs and to keep a little quieter when clearing up in the pub / restaurant downstairs.
Fabulous location right in the heart of Alnwick, close to the gardens, castle and town centre. Great staff on check in and at breakfast. Good food. Private (ish) car park at the rear.

AustraliaWe did not find anything to dislike.
It has a great central location close to the castle, with ample free parking behind the hotel, which is best accessed from the lane rather than under the very narrow arch at the front of the hotel. The staff greeted us warmly and were very helpful throughout our stay. The room was a good size and very clean with a reasonable ensuite. It was very quiet at night, with a comfortable bed. It has a great restaurant for dinner and breakfast.
