PRICING

All prices shown online are per room per night (unless otherwise stated).  Prices are subject to Value Added Tax at the current prevailing rate.

Prices are subject to change without notice. However, your price is guaranteed once you receive a booking confirmation. For the avoidance of doubt, prices do not include any incidental charges, which you may incur during your stay (including, for example, any food and beverage consumed at the Z Cafe).

The prices shown online are not valid in conjunction with any other offer and until you have received your confirmation number.

AVAILABILITY

CHILDREN

Children under the age of 12 can stay free of charge at any of our hotels when sharing a room with a paying adult (where a suitable room is available). Availability of suitable rooms is limited and portable beds may need to be used where such accommodation is sought for three occupants. The hotel concerned will determine whether a room is suitable for the purpose of this offer. Portable beds are chargeable at a small fee, if a child is over 12 years old and features as a third occupant.

Children (under the age of 18) can only stay if accompanied by a parent or guardian. We request that children do not provide personal information, and should we receive it, we reserve the right to delete it.

Please contact the hotel directly for more information relating to bookings with children.

REQUESTS

Whilst every effort is made to fulfil any particular requests which you may have in relation to your stay with us, unfortunately we cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet any particular requests which you may make and our failure in this regard will not constitute a breach of contract.

- accept the changed arrangements as notified; or 

- make alternative arrangements with us;

For the avoidance of doubt, we shall have no further liability to you for any changes to, or the cancellation of, any online booking.
