Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The quality of the food and a lack of sufficient staff at dinner time. We were 10 people at our table and placed our orders at 17h30 and received our food at 19h30.
The location is close to a company that we are purchasing

I had the pleasure of staying at the Merchant Business Class Hotel during my recent trip to the Johannesburg, and I must say that my experience was fantastic! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the impeccable cleanliness of the rooms and bathrooms. The rooms were not only clean but also very comfortable, offering a relaxing and peaceful environment that made my stay truly enjoyable. I had a great night's sleep in the cozy bed, and the modern amenities in the room made it a perfect home away from home. One of the highlights of my stay was the exceptional food at the hotel's restaurant. The quality and taste of the dishes exceeded my expectations, and I found myself looking forward to each meal. The variety of options on the menu catered to different preferences, and the service was quick and efficient. However, what truly sets the Merchant Business Class Hotel apart is the incredible staff. The team was not only professional but also incredibly friendly and welcoming. Their warm hospitality made me feel valued as a guest, and they were always ready to assist with any request or question I had. Their dedication to ensuring a comfortable stay was truly remarkable. In conclusion, I can't recommend the Merchant Business Class Hotel enough, especially for those with business in the Vaal area. The combination of clean and comfortable rooms, delicious food, and the welcoming staff creates a perfect environment for a productive and enjoyable stay. Thank you, Merchant Business Class Hotel, for making my stay so memorable!

The breakfast was just normal nothing fancy. The hotel itself was nice, but the access was a problem as google maps/navigator directed me to the back gate and the old security building there looked shabby or rather scary and required some cleaning.
