Cancellation, no-shows and changes policy

As a small hotel, we believe that it is only fair to others that we make a charge if you cancel at the last minute and don’t let us know in advance. It helps keep the prices down, too, for everyone!

Therefore, should you wish to make any changes to your confirmed booking, please note the following terms and conditions:

Best Flexible Rate – Full payment is required at the time of arrival. Reservations made may be modified or cancelled without penalty up to 11am the day prior to arrival (11am GMT/London time). Cancellations after that time will be charged for one night’s stay.

Early Bird Rate (Advance Purchase Rate) – Cancellations will be charged the full rate, and amendments are not permitted. Please note that the card used for payment will be required at check-in. Failure to do so will require a new payment on arrival.

Stays of 7 nights or more – 25% Non-Refundable Deposit of rate per night required. 24 Hours Cancellation Policy, by 11 am the day prior to arrival.

Reservations made later than 11am the day prior to arrival may not be modified or cancelled without a charge of one night’s stay being made to the debit or credit card used to guarantee your reservation.

If you fail to cancel and do not show up, you will be charged one nights’ accommodation.

For the avoidance of doubt, if your date of arrival is on the 4th of the month, for example, the last date which you can cancel without penalty is the 3rd of the month, 11am (GMT). Bookings cancelled, in this example, on the 3rd (after 11am GMT), or 4th of the month will be charged to the credit or debit used to guarantee your reservation.

Any request to cancel a reservation cannot be considered complete until you receive our cancellation confirmation or cancellation reference number. Until you do so, your booking will still be considered valid and cancellation penalties may be incurred. If you do not receive a confirmation of your cancellation or cancellation reference number within 24-hours of your initial request, please ensure you contact us without delay.

Changes or cancellations, where admissible, may be made by email or by phone.

If you make the booking via a third party site (i.e. a booking agency or affiliate site), you must cancel through them.

 

Changes, book-outs and cancellations by us

Occasionally, we have to make changes to and correct errors in our publications and other details both before and after bookings have been confirmed and cancel confirmed bookings, and we reserve the right to do so.

Occasionally, we have to make a “significant change”. “Significant changes” include the following changes when made before departure; a change of accommodation to that of a lower official classification or standard for the whole or a major part of the time you are a guest, a change of accommodation area for the whole or a major part of the time you are a guest. If we have to make a significant change or cancelation, we will advise you as soon as possible. If there is time to do so before your arrival, we will offer you the choice of the following options: (for significant changes) accepting the changed arrangements or purchasing an alternative stay from us, of a similar standard to that originally booked if available. Cancelling or accepting the cancellation in which case you will not be charged by us.

No liability can be accepted where we are forced to make a change or cancel as a result of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which we could not have avoided even with all due care. No compensation will be payable and the above options will not be available if we cancel as a result of your failure to comply with any requirement of these booking conditions entitling us to cancel (such as paying on time).

Resident Hotels reserve the right to book you into another hotel of a similar category, should the service or accommodation you require not be available due to unforeseen circumstances.

In all cases, our liability for significant changes and cancellations is limited to offering you the above mentioned choices. We regret we cannot pay any expenses, costs or losses incurred by you as a result of any change or cancellation.
