    Hotel Reservation Worldwide - Booking Conditions

    1. The rates provided for you on this website are available ONLY through Hotel Reservation Worldwide. Please DO NOT call the hotel direct, as they WILL NOT have the same rates in their reservation system.

    2. Your credit card will be charged ONLY after the booking is confirmed. Once the credit card is processed, we will email your CONFIRMATION VOUCHER to you, which MUST BE retained for check-in purposes.

    Please note that if you provide an American Express or Diners Club credit card for payment of your booking, the transaction may be charged in a different currency to the one in which your booking rates were quoted. The cost of your booking is converted using our bank's exchange rates on the day of the transaction.

    The holder of the credit card used for the booking MUST sign the CONFIRMATION VOUCHER. If the cardholder does not sign the CONFIRMATION VOUCHER, it WILL NOT be accepted by the hotel.

    Hotel Reservation Worldwide takes no responsibility if you lose the voucher.

    3. Due to processing requirements, on occasion hotels are unable to confirm a reservation immediately. Below is the usual response time taken to confirm reservations for hotels when immediate confirmation is not available:

    1 day - for hotels in Australia, New Zealand and Asia
    1 to 2 days - for hotels in Europe, Africa and North America

    Disclaimer: Whilst we endeavour to process your booking request within the time guidelines shown above, unfortunately at times we are unable to finalise your request within this limit. Circumstances that may cause delays in replying to you include international public holidays and time zone differences.

    4. If you wish to cancel your booking after the voucher has been issued, a nominal cancellation fee will apply. The cancellation fee varies according to the country of the hotel specified in your booking. The following table shows the amount that will be charged in each currency:

      
    Australian Dollars:    25
    British Pounds:    10
    Danish Kroner:    125
    Euros:    15
    Hong Kong Dollars:    125
          
    Japan Yen:    1800
    New Zealand Dollars:    35
    Norwegian Kroner:    135
    Singapore Dollars:    25
    South African Rand:    125
          
    Swedish Kronas:    150
    Swiss Francs:    25
    U.S. Dollars:    15

    5. If you cancel your booking LESS THAN 4 (FOUR) DAYS prior to check-in, a cancellation fee equal to 1 (ONE) NIGHT'S accommodation cost will be incurred. The nominal cancellation fee (see Point 4) will NOT be charged in this case.

    NOTE: Failure to arrive at your hotel will be treated as a late cancellation and will incur a cancellation fee as above.

    6. All cancellations must be made IN WRITING by reply confirmation voucher email.
    A Cancellation must be confirmed back to you by one of our consultants.
    If you have not received a confirmation of the cancellation within 24 hours after submission,
    it means we have not received it and you must resubmit it.

    7. If you wish to amend your booking, a nominal amendment fee will apply. The amendment fee varies according to the country of the hotel specified in your booking. The following table shows the amount that will be charged in each currency:

      
    Australian Dollars:    10
    British Pounds:    4
    Danish Kroner:    43
    Euros:    6
    Hong Kong Dollars:    40
          
    Japan Yen:    650
    New Zealand Dollars:    13
    Norwegian Kroner:    48
    Singapore Dollars:    10
    South African Rand:    40
          
    Swedish Kronas:    53
    Swiss Francs:    10
    U.S. Dollars:    5

    Please note: the fee will be per each hotel amended, not the number of nights changed. For example, if you are travelling to the USA, made a booking for 2 hotels and are making amendments to both of these hotels, you will incur a fee of USD 5 x 2 = USD 10

    Any amendment advised to us within 5 days of your arrival date or once you have arrived at the Hotel, may be treated as a late amendment. Late amendments may be subject to a fee based on the Hotel's amendment policy, as advised to Hotel Reservation Worldwide. If a Late Amendment Fee is applied, the nominal amendment fee will not be charged.

    Should you ask to change a booking from one Hotel to another Hotel, you will NOT be charged an Amendment Fee. This will be considered as a cancellation of an existing booking, and the applicable Cancellation Fee will apply.

    In order for us to ensure accuracy, we will only accept amendments IN WRITING by replay confirmation voucher email.

    Please try to give us as much notice as possible to allow for sufficient time to contact the hotel(s) concerned and a new voucher to be sent to you.

    An Amendment must be confirmed back to you by one of our consultants. If you have not received a confirmation of the amendment within 24 hours after submission, it means we have not received it and you must resubmit it.

    If you require us to correspond with an email address that is not the one used in the original booking or the one via which the amendment was sent, please include the new details with the amendments required.

    8. The client must submit a valid credit card when completing the credit card form. All care must be taken by the client to ensure that the information provided in the credit card form is correct. Hotel Reservation Worldwide takes no responsibility for any incorrect information submitted.

    If the client wishes to alter the credit card after it has been charged, it will be treated as an amendment, and a corresponding amendment fee will apply - see Point 6.

    9. The client must submit a valid email address on the Reservation Form. This email address will be used for all future correspondence relating to your booking. All care must be taken by the client to ensure that the information provided in the Reservation form is correct. It is the client's responsibility to advise Hotel Reservation Worldwide if an error in the email address was submitted on the Reservation Form or any other correspondence. Hotel Reservation Worldwide takes no responsibility for any incorrect information submitted.

    10. Hotel Reservation Worldwide intends to provide you with all the services that you request from us. In rare cases, when it is not possible to confirm your reservation due to overbooking or other circumstances, we will endeavour to offer you an alternative of comparable price and standards. If this occurs, we will contact you via e-mail and request your authorisation to proceed with this new booking. If you decline the alternative, and you were already charged for the original booking, a full refund will be given to you as soon as possible.
