If you are a non-business customer, then you have certain rights under consumer protection legislation. Nothing contained within these terms is intended to affect those rights.

The Hotel shall not be in breach of these terms or liable for any failure to perform any of its obligations where such breach or non-performance arises from or is connected to events beyond the hotel's reasonable control, including but not limited to floods, power outages, adverse weather, natural disasters, strikes, protect or industrial disputes, or other public events. Where such events necessitate cancellation or alteration of your booking, the hotel’s sole responsibility and liability (if any) is as set out in clauses 6 and 11 of these terms.

If any part of these terms is deemed illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, then such part shall be deemed to be deleted and will not otherwise affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining parts of these terms.

It is your responsibility to ensure that all bookings correspond with the person named to arrive at the hotel and match their departure date. Any booking for multiple nights intended for different guests will be refused.

The hotel reserves the right to cancel any booking made under incorrect names or if the arrival and departure dates do not correspond to the individual.

You acknowledge and agree that the hotel is not responsible for any failure by you to provide us with accurate information.

If you wish to book more than 8 room nights, please call groups and events on 0121 273 1000 to make a group booking.

Bookings of 8 room nights or more will be treated as a group booking and the group booking terms and conditions will also apply. Note specifically that different pre-payment and cancellation requirements will apply to any group booking.

No booking is or will be confirmed unless and until we send you a formal booking confirmation with a reference number.

The rate displayed is the rate agreed at the time of booking. The hotel reserves the right to increase or decrease selling rates at any time. No changes will be made to the rate you have booked and agreed to.

Bookings that include any function element (e.g. meetings, weddings, conferences) will be subject to the hotel’s function terms where different payment and cancellation requirements apply.

Bookings that include spa treatments are also subject to (i) the spa terms and conditions and (ii) the promotional terms applicable (if redeemed against a promotional offer, 2 for 1, etc.).

PAYMENTS AND RATES

The Genting Hotel is cashless and we only accept payment by credit or debit card.

As published on the hotel’s website; or as advised to you by email, phone, or in person by the hotel, our rates are per night and are inclusive of VAT.

The hotel operates two main room booking rates, namely:

Saver Rate - (rooms made available at a discounted rate payable in full at the time of booking and non-refundable even in the event of cancellation).

Flexible Rate - (reserved on booking, payable on arrival, can be cancelled as per “cancellations” below).

Both rate types may be offered on a “room only” or “breakfast inclusive” or other basis. You agree that;

For the avoidance of doubt, room rates do not include any incidental charges that you or your guests may incur during your stay (including, by way of example only, use
of the hotel’s bar, room mini-bar, and the cost of external telephone calls).

The hotel is not obliged to provide items not included in the specific booking rate selected.

You will pay for any incidental costs arising from your booking.

Reservations at the Genting Hotel can only be made by providing valid credit or debit card details to secure the reservation. We accept Visa, Master Card, American Express, valid until the date of departure from the hotel. The credit or debit card details will be passed directly to the hotel to guarantee your booking.

The hotel reserves the right to take a payment on the credit/debit card for the entire stay dates to secure the booking 48hrs prior to the date of arrival. If the card has been declined, the hotel will try to contact the guest and reserves the right to cancel the booking if an alternative valid card is not provided within 24 hours of the date of arrival. Bookings cannot be secured without a valid credit/debit card. Full payment is required and the original payment card must be physically presented upon check-in along with valid photographic identification in the form of a driving licence or passport.

We may pre-authorise your credit card details provided at the time of booking to: (i) charge your card for your stay including for incidental costs associated with your stay; or (ii) charge your card for any cancellation costs (see clause 6) if you fail to arrive.

The above is without prejudice to our right to request periodic pre-authorisation, deposit or payment in respect of bookings, which we may request at any time.

During major sporting, social, conference, and exhibition events, certain rates may not be available and/or subject to a minimum length of stay. All rates are subject to availability.

Group bookings must be paid in full at least 30 days prior to the booking date.

Failure to vacate before 11am (unless otherwise agreed in advance) may incur a late checkout charge.

Rooms are available from 3pm on the day of arrival and must be vacated before 11am on the day of departure unless otherwise permitted and agreed in advance at the discretion of the hotel and manager on duty.

Payment Policy;

The Genting Hotel only accepts reservations that are secured with a valid credit or debit card. You are required to enter a valid credit or debit card number to guarantee your reservation and you accept that a full payment will be taken 48 hours prior to your arrival date. You are responsible for payment in full directly to the hotel. The hotel will require you to present the same payment card upon arrival. Valid Credit/Debit Card is required to secure your reservation.

Saver Rate bookings – The name on the reservation must be the same as the credit cardholder’s name and same individual must check-in for the stay. The credit/debit card used to book the Saver Rate must be presented at the time of check-in along with valid photographic identification in the form of a driving licence or passport. In case if you are paying for someone else, please get in touch with our Reservations team prior to the arrival of the guest.

  • Pre-authorisation is required (if paying via credit card) for all charges outstanding or incurred during your stay.
  • A deposit is required (if paying by debit card) for all charges outstanding or incurred during your stay.
  • Card details are required (if the booking is pre-paid) to be held as a guarantee for all charges outstanding or incurred during your stay.
  • Valid photographic identification. This must be a government issued photographic ID i.e. driver's license or passport and photocopies cannot be accepted.

Security Deposit:

Upon arrival at the hotel, a deposit for incidental charges during the stay will be required

Before a reservation can be checked in*

The deposit can be covered with a valid credit/debit card. This is to guarantee and cover the cost of Incidentals which are charged to the room account.

The deposit amount is £50.00 per night up to a maximum of £200.00 by either credit/debit card

The hotel also reserves the right to use the deposit to cover the cost of any accidental/intentional damage to the room or any part of the hotel premises; or to cover the cost of any deep cleaning that is required due to any actions of the occupant, including smoking or disposal of hazardous materials.

Saver Rate bookings (as a reflection of the discounted rate at which they are sold) are non-refundable, non-transferable, and any payment will be forfeited to the hotel in the event of a cancellation or no-show.

CANCELLATIONS AND NO-SHOWS

The hotel will have no further obligation to you for any charges or cancellation of your reservation. If you fail to pay us when required or otherwise breach these terms (or additional terms, if and as applicable), then the hotel may cancel your bookings by notice to you.

In such an eventuality, any pre-paid booking fees will be dealt with in accordance with (i) these terms and (ii) any applicable additional terms, if any.

Flexible Rates may be cancelled up until 2pm the day before your arrival.
Cancellations received after 2pm (or no-shows) will incur a charge of the first night’s stay.

To cancel your booking with us, please call Hotel Reservations on 0121 273 1000. Third-Party bookings may be cancelled in accordance with the third party’s own cancellation procedures.

In the unlikely event that we have to change, alter, or cancel your booking, or if an event occurs beyond our reasonable control, we reserve the right to amend or cancel your booking(s). However, if we do so you may accept any amended booking offered by the hotel (if any); opt for a refund over an amended booking offered by the hotel, whereupon the hotel will return any pre-paid direct booking fees to you (but not for the avoidance of doubt, any sums paid to any third-party agents not attributable to the actual room rate).

Should you wish to amend or cancel a flexible booking made through the Genting Hotel website, we require 24 hours' notice prior to your arrival date.

All prepaid saver rates are non-refundable and non-transferable.

All flexible bookings made with or arranged by any third-party agents must also be cancelled directly with the applicable third-party agent 48 hours prior to your arrival date.

It is the responsibility of the guest to make contact with the hotel to make any amendments or cancellations and to notify us that they have made contact with a third party.

You understand that you will still be charged for any booking that does not arrive, and this will be treated as a non-arrival, with charges for the first night’s accommodation (flexible rate) or the entire stay for saver rates will be processed.

All non-arrival reservations that are booked for more than 1 night will be automatically cancelled for the remainder of the booking, past the first night.

It is your responsibility to comply with these hotel terms and conditions.
