Terms and conditions
By booking and by confirming a booking, both parties agree to the following terms and conditions:
Once
a booking has been placed by the guest or his representative
(customer) and was confirmed by the Hotel La Casa GmbH (hotel) a
booking contract is formed after the booking is reconfirmed by the
customer (this might require a deposit or payment agreement through
an accepted payment method).
Any additions or modifications
(customer business conditions etc.) need to be expressly agreed to
in written form and approved by La Casa GmbH.
The parties in this contract are the hotel and the customer. If a third party placed the order for the guest, then this party is also liable to the hotel together with the customer as joint debtor for all obligations of the accommodation.
The
stay at the hotel is limited in time by the agreed arrival and
departure times.
The rented accommodation is only available to
the preregistered number of persons. Any additional occupancy
(including temporary, short-term and unexpected) needs to be
registered at the reception before or at arrival. Any subletting or
overcrowding is prohibited and may result to the premature
termination without advance notice. The customer will be billed for
the additional occupancy and any additional damages.
This contract is binding for both parties once the booking confirmation is received. It can be terminated at any time by written statement. Termination fees may apply (see below):
Cancellation policy for single rooms and group bookings of three rooms or less within the Daily rate:

stay, if the room is canceled later or if the guest does not arrive
100%.
Your room will stay reserved for you after 6 pm until midnight (10pm on Sundays) if the booking has been reconfirmed by the guest in writing and was accompanied by valid credit card information. Please note that the hotel closes at midnight (10pm on Sundays) and check in / arrival is not possible after this time.
Cancellation policy for early booker rate and trade fair rate:
Upon receipt of a binding booking (online booking, written booking reconfirmation, or a binding booking via phone, in each case with a credit card put on file and accompanying authorization), the early booker rate and trade fair rate cannot be cancelled or changed without charge. These rates, upon binding booking, incur a cancellation fee of 100%. No-shows incur a cancellation fee of 100% as well. The amount will be charged to the credit card without separate notice. Invoicing will take place at a later time.
Cancellation policy for arrangements/promotional rates:
Arrangements are offered at reduced promotional rates. Upon receipt of a binding booking (online booking, written booking reconfirmation, or a binding booking via phone, in each case with a credit card put on file and accompanying authorization), arrangements cannot be cancelled or changed without charge. These promotional rates, upon binding booking, incur a cancellation fee of 100%. No-shows incur a cancellation fee of 100% as well. The amount will be charged to the credit card without separate notice. Invoicing will take place at a later time.
V.
Cancellation fees - No Shows
If
the guest does not arrive without prior written notification, or if a
room is canceled after 6pm on the day of arrival the full room price
is charged. You will receive a note whether this fee or parts of it
might be used to reduce the price of a future booking.
We
recommend trip cancellation insurance.
VI. Failure
to arrive / early departure for personal reasons, illness, acts of
nature etc.
If the guest does not arrive, or if the stay ends early for
personal reasons, illness, acts of nature etc. the guest is still
obliged to pay the agreed price.
VII. The guest is required to pay for the room and any additional services requested. This includes services of third parties requested by the guest.
VIII. The prices may be modified by the hotel if the guest changes the number of rooms or inhabitants or the length of the stay (requires the expressed permission of the hotel).
IX. All invoices need to be paid within 5 days after receiving. The hotel may demand immediate payment of accrued costs at any time.
X. Default
charges
are calculated as follows: The first reminder is free of charge, the
second one costs 15 Euro, the third 25 Euro. After this a collecting
order is filed. The hotel may demand interest as stated in § 288
BGB on late payments. The current interest according to law is 5
percentage points above the base interest set by the European Central
Bank for private entities or 8% otherwise.
The hotel reserves
the right to assert a further claim for damages.
The
hotel is not liable for any damages except in case of intent or gross
negligence.
The hotel takes no responsibility for lost or
forgotten personal items or valuables.
The booking does not guarantee the permanent availability of heating, hot water and electricity (for example unforeseeable urgent repairs, power failures, force majeure etc.)
The guest is responsible for damages caused by water, heating or electricity that were caused by improper handling or misuse. All repairs will be performed through specialist companies at the guests expense.
The guest is not entitled to damages if the hotel is forced to cancel the reservation for reason of force majeure.
The hotel reserves the right to offer the guest alternative accommodation if the one booked initially is not available for unexpected reasons. The guest will be notified of such a change upon arrival. Additional costs for a room upgrade are on the expense of the hotel. Such a change does not entitle the guest for a price reduction.
The
room(s) should be treated with care. All rooms are inspected prior to
arrival and are considered to be free of defects/damages.
Any
defects found after arrival must be brought to th attention of the
reception at once. We will try to find a remedy for the problem. If a
defect is reported at the time of departure or later, we are no
longer in a position to do something about it. A liability is
excluded in this case.
If the room is dirty beyond any normal
standards, or in cases of vandalism, the hotel may charge extra fees
for cleaning and repairs.
The guest and the contract partner
(the recipient of the invoice) are responsible for damages to/theft
of hotel property in the room. A minimum
fee of 60 Euro will be charged to take care of cleaning and repairs.
The use of candles or spreading vividly colored blossoms is not
allowed.
Smoking
is prohibited in the entire house, on all balconies and the
courtyard!
Please
think of subsequent guest. Failure to follow this restriction may
result in the immediate termination of the contract.
Compensation
for damages on hotel or third party property will be claimed. The
contract partner or the person who caused it are required to pay an
extra cleaning charge of 60 Euro minimum for smoking in the rooms.
Alternatively the hotel may consider the room to be temporarily
unsuitable for subsequent guests. In that case the contract partner
or the causer will be charged the room price for at
least
one extra night. These fees may also be claimed after departure.
Since our hotel is advertised as suitable for allergy
sufferers, we kindly ask our smoking guests to pay special attention
to this. Thank
you for your cooperation and understanding.
For
the above reasons pets
are also not allowed (see section VII and VIII)!
An extra fee
of at least 50% of the room price is mandatory. If necessary an
extra cleaning fee may be charged in addition to this. Both
fees may also be claimed after departure.

long-term stays of more than 7 nights, a deposit of 200 Euro is
required. The deposit is returned at departure if the room is free of
defects/damages.
The hotel is also entitled to demand interim
settlement every 5 days.
If we provide a parking space in the underground garage or another parking facility (independent if for a fee or not), it does not constitute a safekeeping agreement. The hotel is not liable for theft, loss or damage of any kind to the car or it's content. This also applies to agents and parking assistance provided by the hotel.
1. The accommodation is available at 3 pm on the day of arrival day until noon on the day of departure.
The
guest may request a late checkout for an additional charge (30% of
the room price) to prolong his stay until 3 pm. The reception needs
to be notified upon arrival (or better upon booking) of the late
checkout and it needs to be entered in the booking agreement.
Otherwise we can not guarantee the availability of the late checkout
option on the day of departure.
If the room is not vacated as
agreed to in 1. or 2. the hotel may charge 60% of the full room
price if the room used until 6pm and 100% if it is still in use
after 6pm. This fee does not constitute any contractual obligations
by the hotel.
The guest retains the right to prove that the
hotel has no or at least a substantially lower claim for
compensation.

Day-rooms from noon until 6 pm cost 75% of the normal room price. If the room is still in use after 6 pm, 100% of the room price is charged.
Day
rooms from 7:00 am until 4pm cost 90% of the normal room price. If
the room is used beyond the time agreed to in the booking contract,
late fees apply. If the room is used until 6pm 100% of the room
price is charged. After 6pm the full price for the following night
is added to this. These fees do not constitute any contractual
obligations by the hotel.
The guest retains the right to prove
that the hotel has no or at least a substantially lower claim for
compensation.

becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that
shall not affect the validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction

of this Agreement
