4. For telephone reservations, registration of personal data such as name, address, email address or fax number, as well as bank details or credit card information, is required if necessary for the reservation process.

The hotel reserves the right to prove higher damages.

IV. Cancellation by the Customer (Withdrawal / Cancellation) / Non-utilization of Hotel Services

1. Once a hotel room is booked, confirmed, or made available at short notice, a guest accommodation contract is concluded.

2. The conclusion of the guest accommodation contract obligates the contractual parties to fulfill the mutual obligations for the entire duration of the contract.

  • a) The obligation of the hotelier is to keep the room available as ordered.
  • b) The obligation of the guest is to pay the price for the period of the room booking.

3. If a guest does not use the booked hotel room, they remain legally obligated to pay the price for the agreed hotel service, regardless of the reason for the non-use. p>4. A cancellation of the contract by the customer requires the hotel's consent in text form. If this does not happen, the agreed price from the contract is still payable, even if the customer does not make use of the contractual services.

Any savings, such as on bedding or breakfast, will be deducted at 10%.

V. Cancellation by the Hotel

1. The hotel is entitled to withdraw from the contract for a valid reason, such as:

- Force majeure or other circumstances beyond the hotel's control that make the fulfillment of the contract impossible;

- Rooms or spaces are booked under misleading or false information regarding essential facts, such as the identity of the customer or the purpose of their stay;

- The hotel has justified reasons to believe that the use of the hotel services may jeopardize the smooth operation of the business, the safety, or the reputation of the hotel in the public without this being attributable to the hotel's sphere of influence;

- The purpose or reason for the stay is illegal.

VI. Room Availability, Check-in, and Check-out

1. The customer does not acquire the right to the provision of specific rooms, unless this has been expressly agreed.

VII. Hotel Liability

1. The hotel is liable for its obligations under the contract. Claims for damages by the customer are excluded. Exceptions include damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health if the hotel is responsible for the breach of duty, other damages based on intentional or grossly negligent breaches of duty by the hotel, and damages based on intentional or negligent breaches of typical contractual obligations by the hotel. A breach of duty by the hotel is equivalent to that of a legal representative or vicarious agent. Should disruptions or deficiencies in the hotel's services occur, the hotel will endeavor to remedy the situation upon becoming aware of it or upon immediate complaint by the customer. The customer is obliged to contribute what is reasonable to eliminate the disruption and minimize possible damage. If an immediate complaint of defects is culpably omitted, claims against the hotel are excluded.

2. The hotel is not liable for items brought into the hotel room.

VIII. Final Provisions

1. Changes or additions to the contract, the acceptance of the application, or these terms and conditions for the hotel accommodation should be made in writing. Unilateral changes or additions by the customer are ineffective.
