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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

We stayed at GRADINA HOLIDAY 3rd to 6th September. On arrival we were Welcomed by the hotel in a very friendly manor, by Jake and i believe his wife. We booked in and were shown to room 2, which is near to the front of the hotel, one the 2nd floor. Lovely modern, well appointed very clean room with a view of the pool area and the sea, overlooking the bay that leads to the port town of Sozopol. The pool area is well layed out and has many sunbeds and a coffee or drinks bar area to the front of the hotel. The Gardina Hotel gives a relaxing location for unwinding and enjoying the local facilities. Jake was kind to suggest several different restaurants to eat at in the local villages, the restaurants definitely worth going to, in my opinion. My wife and I will definitely visit again next year but for a longer stay. Verg good value for money. All in All, a very good hotel! Well done to all involved.

BulgariaIt is not the property's fault but there is no sidewalk, so even though the beach is close by, it is not a pleasant walk trying to manoeuvre between parked and passing cars.
Welcoming host and very responsive to even minor issues, good-sized apartment, heated swimming pool, well maintained property - both inside and the grounds. Stocked, self-service bar area at more than reasonable prices. The closest beach is about 5 minutes' walk but need to navigate walking along a busy road and then a dirt road.

BulgariaWe didn’t have any negative experiences or observations from the place we stayed at. In late September much of the surrounding facilities were closed but that is true everywhere on the Black Sea
Our favorite thing about the property was the pool. It was heated, which was perfect for when evenings or days were a little bit chilly as well as being clean. Also from the bedrooms on the second floor, there was a view of the sea, even though it’s not directly on the beach. Even though it’s not directly on the beach, it’s only a five minute walk from the beach, which makes it much more economical compared to some of the surrounding places. It’s a great value for money. The owner speaks English. He lived in the US for a number of years And so it’s a great place if Bulgarian is not your native language.

It’s a cozy, family-owned and operated hotel. Everyone was very nice and welcoming. Great location. The property was very close to the beach, supermarkets and only 13 minutes from the center of Sozopol . We rented a two-bedroom maisonette. The rooms were very tidy and clean and perfect fit for our family (3adults + two young children).

BulgariaOur experience with ‘Gradina Holiday’ hotel was more than satisfying. The facility and the pool were very clean, the hotel is situated near the beach, so it didn’t take long to get to beach - only 2-3 minutes walking, the hosts were very kind and ready to assist with whatever asked. Last but not least, the place is suitable for kids. We’ll definitely visit the place again. Highly recommend!
