Upon arrival please report to reception where one of our friendly staff will be happy to check you into your room and answer any questions you may have between 1:30pm and 10pm. At the time of booking or at check-in we will ask you for a credit card and pre-authorisation of the card to ensure that any cancellations, damages, telephone charges or no-smoking policy breaches may be paid for. Please note that the card which is pre-authorised may be used for multiple room charges if the booking was made under a single guest’s name.
We do hope you’ll come and stay with us but if you need to cancel then you can do so any time up to 48-hours before your arrival date, at no cost. Please make sure you inform us of any full- or partial-stay cancellations (for example if you decide to stay just 2 nights but booked for 3) before 11am two days prior to the start of your booking. If we don’t receive notice of your cancellation within this timeframe then your credit or debit card will be charged for one nights’ stay per room booked under your name. Please note: NON-REFUNDABLE OFFERS must be paid for at the time of booking and no refund will be made should the booking be modified or cancelled. This policy overrides the above Cancellation Policy.
Reservations booked direct will have priority check-in available from 12.30pm instead of 1.30pm and we request that you vacate your room by 11am on the day of your departure. If you fail to check out by this time then an additional night’s rate will be payable. If you’re struggling to check-out by 11am because of circumstances out with your control, please seek assistance from reception.
