  1. What are the conditions of remote contracting?

Access to the page does not imply in any way the existence of a commercial relationship between the user and the company. The portal only provides information about available hotel vacancies at the time of requesting such information, so if you make an online reservation, you are contracting directly with the hotel and not with the portal. The printed version of the reservation made serves as a locator when you arrive at the hotel. Booking hotel nights on this website implies the client’s adherence to and acceptance of all the general conditions set out here. By accepting the following clauses, you declare and accept:

  • The conditions and price of the reservation made are those expressly determined in the tariff conditions included on the page where you make the reservation.

  • Your card details are collected to guarantee the reservation in compliance with the PSD2 regulations on electronic payment services.
  • Unless you make a non-refundable reservation, which will entail payment upon making the reservation, the payment for the accommodation service contracted will be made in cash upon arrival at the chosen hotel, and only in the event of cancellations or no-shows will the reservation be canceled and the fee specified in the tariff conditions will be charged.
  • Offers are only valid as long as they remain accessible to service recipients.
  • Pursuant to Article 103,l) of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007, of November 16, on the General Law for the Defense of Consumers and Users, you are informed that the hotel accommodation service, having a specific date or period of execution, does not allow the right to withdraw from the accommodation contract once it has begun to be fulfilled.
