Sect. 2 Definition of terms

2.1 Definition of terms:

"Accommodation provider": Is a natural or legal person, who accommodates guests for payment.

"Guest": Is a natural person who uses the accommodation. The guest is usually also the contractual partner. People who travel with the contractual partner also count as guests (e.g. family members, friends etc.)

"Contractual partner": Is a natural or legal person from inland or abroad, who concludes an accommodation contract as a guest or for a guest.

"Consumer" and "Contractor": The terms are to be understood in the sense of the consumer protection law of 1979 in the respective valid version.

"Accommodation contract": Is the contract drawn up between the accommodation provider and the contractual partner, the content of which is detailed below.

Sect. 3 Contract conclusion – Deposit

3.1 The accommodation contract arises when the accommodation provider accepts the order of the contractual partner. Electronic declarations are considered received when the party that they are intended for can call these up under the usual circumstances, and these are received during the announced business hours of the accommodation provider.

3.2 The accommodation provider is authorised to conclude the accommodation contract, on the condition that the contractual partner makes an advance payment. In this case, the accommodation provider is obliged to inform the contractual partner of the required advance payment, before accepting the written or verbal order by the contractual partner. If the contractual partner consents to the advance payment (written or verbal), the accommodation contract arises on receipt of the declaration of consent for the advance payment to the accommodation provider.

3.3 The contractual partner is obliged to make the advance payment at least 14 days (arriving) before the start of the accommodation period. The contractual partner bears the costs for the money transaction (e.g. transfer fees). For credit and debit cards, the relevant conditions of the card company apply.

3.4 The deposit is a partial payment of the agreed payment.

Sect. 4 Start and end of accommodation

4.1 The contractual partner has the right to check in to the rented premises from 4 pm on the agreed day ("day of arrival"), unless the accommodation provider offers another check-in time.

4.2 If a room is used for the first time before 6 am, then the previous night counts as the first night's stay.

4.3 The contractual partner must vacate the rented premises by 11 am on the day of departure. The accommodation provider is authorised to bill for an extra day, if the rented premises are not vacated on time.

Sect. 5 Withdrawal from accommodation contract – cancellation fee and withdrawal by the accommodation provider

5.1 If the accommodation contract stipulates a deposit, and the deposit is not paid on time by the contractual partner, the accommodation provider can withdraw from the accommodation contract without a grace period.

5.2 If the guest does not appear by 6 pm on the agreed day of arrival, there is no obligation to provide accommodation, unless a later arrival time has been agreed.

5.3 If the contractual partner has paid a deposit (see 3.3.), then the premises will remain reserved until 12 pm of the day following the agreed day of arrival at the latest. In the case of advance payment of more than four days, the obligation to provide accommodation ends at 6 pm on the fourth day, whereby the day of arrival will be billed as the first day, unless the guest announces a later day of arrival.

5.4 By 3 months before the agreed day of arrival of the contractual partner at the latest, the accommodation contract can be dissolved by the accommodation provider, through a unilateral declaration, for objectively justified reasons, unless otherwise agreed. An objectively justified reason is particularly if force majeure, or other circumstances which the hotel is not responsible for, make it impossible to fulfil the contract, or there is a justified reason to assume, that the accommodation will harm the flawless business operation, the security or appearance of the hotel to the public.

Withdrawal by the contractual partner – cancellation fee

5.5 By 4 weeks before the agreed day of arrival of the guest at the latest, the accommodation contract can be dissolved by the contractual partner, through a unilateral declaration, without the payment of a cancellation fee.

5.6 Outside of the time period determined in sect. 5.5, a withdrawal through unilateral declaration of the contractual partner, is only possible on payment of the following cancellation fees:

- 4 weeks to 1 week before the day of arrival 70% of the total arrangement price

- in the last week before the day of arrival 90% of the total arrangement price

The right to withdraw in accordance with sect. 11 para. 1 FAGG [Remote and External Business Act] is not applied.

Prevention from travel

5.7 If the contractual partner can not appear in the accommodation facilities on the day of arrival, because all travel options are impossible due to unforeseen, extraordinary circumstances (e.g. extreme snow fall, flooding etc.), the contractual partner is not obliged to pay the agreed payment for the day of arrival.

5.8 The duty to pay remuneration for the booked stay is revived from the time of travel becoming possible, if travel becomes possible again within three days.

Sect. 6 Provision of alternative accommodation

6.1 The accommodation provider can provide the contractual partner and/or the guests with adequate alternative accommodation (of the same quality), if this is reasonable to the contractual partner, particularly if the variation is minimal and is objectively justified.

6.2 An objective justification exists, for example if the room(s) has/have become unusable, guests already staying there extend their stay, overbooking occurs or other important operational measures require this step.

6.3 Any additional costs for the alternative accommodation are borne by the accommodation provider.

Sect. 7 Rights of the contractual partner

7.1 By concluding an accommodation contract, the contractual partner acquires the right to the usual use of the rented premises, the facilities of the accommodation establishment, which are usually accessible to guests without special conditions, and the usual service. The contractual partner must exercise his rights in accordance with the usual hotel and/or guest guidelines (house rules).

Sect. 8 Obligations of the contractual partner

8.2 The accommodation provider is not obliged to accept foreign currencies. If the accommodation provider accepts foreign currencies, these will be taken as payment at the exchange rate of the day, as far as possible. If the accommodation provider accepts foreign currencies or cashless payment methods, then the contractual partner bears all affiliated costs, such as enquiries to credit card companies, telegrams etc.

8.3 The contractual partner is liable to the accommodation provider, for any damages that he or the guest or other persons, cause to the services of the accommodation provider, with the knowledge or intention of the contractual partner.

This right to retention or right of lien is furthermore available to the accommodation provider, to secure his asset from the accommodation contract, in particular for catering, other expenditures which were made for the contractual partner, and any replacement claims of any kind.

9.2 If service is demanded in the room of the contractual partner, or at unusual times of day (after 20.00 and before 7.00), then the accommodation provider is entitled to demand a surcharge for this. However, this surcharge should be indicated on the room price list. The accommodation provider can also refuse these services for operational reasons.

The accommodation provider is liable in accordance with sect. 970 para. 1 GTCA, up to the max. amount determined in the Federal Law from 16 November 1921, on the liability of proprietors and other entrepreneurs, in the respective valid version. If the contractual partner or the guest does not immediately comply with the request of the accommodation provider, to store his property in a particular storage location, then the accommodation provider is exempt from any liability. The maximum possible liability of the accommodation provider is limited to the liability insurance amount of the relevant accommodation provider. A fault on the part of the contractual partner or guest should be taken into consideration.

11.2 The liability of the accommodation provider is ruled out for slight negligence. If the contractual partner is an entrepreneur, then the liability is also ruled out for gross negligence. In this case, the contractual partner has the burden of proof for the existence of the fault. Subsequent damages or indirect damages, as well as loss of earnings will not be replaced under any circumstances.

11.3 For valuables, money and securities, the accommodation provider is only liable up to an amount of currently € 550. The accommodation provider is only liable for further damages, in the case that he accepted these items for safekeeping, knowing their quality, or in the case that the damages were caused by himself or his people. The limitation of liability applies in accordance with 12.1 and 12.2 correspondingly,

11.4 The accommodation provider can refuse the safekeeping of valuables, money and securities, if they are significantly more valuable objects, than guests of the relevant accommodation establishment usually hand over for safekeeping.

11.5 In any case of acceptance for safekeeping, liability is excluded if the contractual partner and/or the guest does not immediately show the incurred damages to the accommodation provider, on becoming aware of them. Furthermore, these claims should be enforced in legal proceedings, within three years of awareness or possible awareness, by the contractual partner and/or guest; otherwise the right expires.
