Tourist Tax
We are required to charge a tourist tax of €3.60 per person per night for all guests aged 14 and over.
The tourist tax is not included in the accommodation price.

Cancellation policy

Free cancellation is possible up to 30 days before arrival. In this case, the full deposit will be credited towards a future stay within one year, provided that the number of guests and the length of stay remain the same.

For cancellations made within 30 days of arrival, the following cancellation fees apply:

  • From 30 to 7 days before arrival: 70% of the total booking value.
  • Within 7 days before arrival: 100% of the total booking value.

All cancellations must be made in writing and received by us within the cancellation periods stated above.

In the event of a no-show without prior cancellation, 100% of the agreed total booking price will be charged. This includes accommodation, meals and any other services booked.

If only individual beds are cancelled or remain unused, cancellation fees will apply exclusively to those beds.

In the event of an early departure, guests will be charged for services already used, as well as 100% of the agreed price for the remaining unused nights and any additional services booked.

Unused meals and services are non-refundable.

Travel insurance

To help you plan your holiday with peace of mind, we recommend taking out travel cancellation insurance. This provides financial protection if you need to cancel your trip at short notice or cut your stay short due to illness or other unforeseen circumstances, subject to the terms and conditions of the insurance policy.

You can conveniently arrange your travel insurance directly through our hotel when making your booking.

We will be happy to inform you about the available options and assist you in choosing the insurance that best suits your needs.
