The booking will only be considered guaranteed once payment has been received (non-refundable rates) or the credit card has been validated as a guarantee (refundable rates). Providing payment details does not necessarily mean that the cost of the stay will be charged immediately, but it authorises the PROVIDER to make the charge in the event of a No-Show or Late Cancellation (for refundable rates, when cancellation occurs after the deadline established for the selected rate).
3. PRICES
Prices are displayed clearly and transparently on the official website and are expressed in euros (EUR). All prices include VAT and any other applicable charge, except for any tourist tax, which will be paid directly at the establishment upon check-in if required by local, regional or national regulations.

Best Price Guarantee: The PROVIDER guarantees the USER the best available price on its official website. If the USER finds a lower rate under the same conditions, the PROVIDER will match that rate provided the claim is submitted within 24 hours of booking and no later than 72 hours before check-in. The guarantee does not apply to private or loyalty rates or rates with different conditions. To submit a claim, the USER must use the website’s contact form, indicate the hotel concerned and provide proof of the lower price found. The bookings team will respond within a maximum of 72 business hours. If the claim is validated, the PROVIDER will match the rate and, where applicable, refund the difference using the original payment method. Prices may vary depending on demand, season or local events.

The PROVIDER reserves the right to relocate customers, in whole or in part, to another establishment of an equivalent category solely and exclusively when the booked room is unavailable for reasons attributable to the hotel (overbooking). In such cases, any additional transfer costs or difference in rates between the two establishments will be borne by the PROVIDER at no cost to the customer
In the event of force majeure or unforeseen circumstances beyond the hotel’s reasonable control that prevent the contracted service from being provided (for example, natural disasters, pandemics, government decisions, power cuts or similar events), the PROVIDER will be exempt from any obligation or liability for non-performance.

Damage caused by interruptions, viruses or system failures beyond its reasonable control.
Inaccuracies in information supplied by third parties.
Contractual breaches caused by force majeure.

If the PROVIDER unjustifiably delays refunding the full amount, the USER may claim twice the amount owed, without prejudice to the right to compensation for any loss or damage exceeding that amount.
The PROVIDER will accept no liability when the service cannot be activated because the information supplied by the USER is false, inaccurate or incomplete.
