CANCELLATION POLICY

Please note that June is a peak month for events in Barcelona and that there is a major medical congress happening at that time.  As a result, hotels are very strict regarding cancellations, no-shows, late check-ins and early check-outs.

Cancellation

No Show
If you fail to check-in at the hotel and you have not cancelled or amended your booking with the event organizer then the hotel will impose a “no show” charge equal to the full period booked.

Early Check-Out
If you unexpectedly wish to check out earlier than the period booked and do not inform the event organizers more than 7 days in advance then the hotel will still charge based on the full period originally booked.

Late Check-In
If you fail to check-in on the 1st night booked then the hotel will still charge according to the full period originally booked.

For any of the above, the event organizers will do their utmost to negotiate with the hotel to keep your charges as low as possible, but this depends on the hotel’s occupancy at the time and the event organizers cannot guarantee that they will always be successful in negotiating with the hotels for a decrease in charges.

EARLY CHECK-IN / LATE CHECK-OUT

Normal Check-In time is after 15:00 hrs
Normal Check-Out time is before 12:00 hrs

If you wish to GUARANTEE Early Check-In or Late Check-Out times then the following rates will apply:

Important: Guaranteed Early Check-Ins and Late Check-Outs must be reserved and paid for by no later than 3rd June 2010 for the above rates to be applicable.  After 3rd June, all such requests must be made directly by you to the concerned hotel and you will be responsible for paying any additional charges directly to the hotel at the hotel’s counter rates.
