For the safety of the cardholder

Within a time frame that does not exceed 14 days prior to your arrival we withold the right to run a security process which guarantees that the card details provided for the reservations due are valid. This action is a check that verifies the card details submitted are correct and authorized for the future payment of your stay. We will only apply the card-check for an amount that will be less or equivalent to 25% of the total of cost your stay, which will temporarily seem to affect your balance.

  • Our hotel reserves and may exercise the right to check the validity of the card details provided via the preauthorization process that may be applied. 
  • If your card fails to pass the pre authorization check the hotel reserves the right to cancel your reservation without further notice 
  • You have the option of offering new valid card details over a period of two days after you were notified of the failed pre-authorization attempt.
  • Should you fail to provide a new valid card within two days of our formal notification the hotel reserves the right to consider your reservation as invalid without further notice.

The preauthorization process will not charge your card 

The funds in concern remain in your account but become temporarily frozen. Do not be alarmed, as this is a banking process that does not have any cost on your balance, it only withholds an instructed amount in your account for approximately14 days, depending on your bank policy. After the preauthorization period has passed, the amount in concern returns to normal status and becomes available in your bank account automatically. 

You have full control over the payment methods covering the cost of your stay.

In the occasion where there have been no prepayments you are entitled to decide in which way you would like to cover the remaining cost of your stay once you arrive at the hotel. If your reservation does not require prepayment we will only charge your card once you have arrived at our hotel, unless both parties have formally agreed to follow a different payment procedure. 

In order for us to conclude the payment process we would strictly require either your written consent or your physical presence. Your written consent will be required for distance payments using a card. This is managed by completing a form that states the exact amount and confirms the payment order with your signature.
