1. Scope

These Terms & Conditions encompass all accommodation contracts concluded between Hotel Schani Donau GmbH (“Hotel Schani UNO City”) and the counterparty (“Guest”), as well as any other services and supplies provided by Hotel Schani UNO City. Guests are reminded that the reservation numbers given to them by third parties (e.g. internet portals) may differ from the reservation or booking numbers given by Hotel Schani UNO City. Any offers by Hotel Schani UNO City relating to the conclusion of an accommodation contract are non-binding and subject to change.

2. Legal capacity of the guest

An accommodation agreement will only be concluded with individuals who have reached the age of 18. Should such an accommodation agreement be concluded online, the guest must state that they are at least 18 years of age and not limited in their legal capacity. Should a minor between the age of 14 to 18 years want to stay at Hotel Schani UNO City overnight, their legal representative must conclude the accommodation agreement on their behalf.

3. Reservation/Resale

An accommodation contract is concluded upon the acceptance of a reservation made by the Guest. This agreement in the form of a reservation for (a) room(s) is binding for both parties. A reservation for rooms that have been booked but have yet to be paid for is valid until 06.00 pm on the day of arrival. Guests are not entitled to a specific room.

Hotel Schani UNO City reserves the right to rent out booked rooms to other guests, should the reservation have expired or have been cancelled. The Guest receives a binding reservation or booking number from Hotel Schani UNO City, but not necessarily a separate, written confirmation of the reservation.

The resale or subletting or transfer of reserved rooms of any kind to a third party is prohibited. In particular, the reselling of individual rooms or room contingents to third parties at a higher price than the actual hotel rate is not permitted. In addition, the transfer or sale of rights vis-a-vis Hotel Schani UNO City is also prohibited. In such cases, Hotel Schani UNO City is entitled to cancel the reservation, especially if the Guest has given false information to a third party on the nature of the reservation and/or payment during the course of the resale/transfer. Any other use of our hotel rooms than for accommodation purposes is expressly prohibited.

Reservations of more than nine (9) rooms are subject to Hotel Schani UNO City group rules. A separate accommodation contract including special conditions for cancellation and terms of payment (deposit) must be concluded with Hotel Schani UNO City for such reservations. Hotel Schani UNO City reserves the right to refuse or cancel group reservations not subject to such group accommodation contracts.

4. Pre-paid reservations, cancellations and changes

The Guest must provide a valid credit card at the time the reservation is made for the reservation to be valid. Hotel Schani UNO City is entitled to check the details provided by the Guest for validity and carry out a pre-authorization check for the credit card. If booking a non-refundable rate, the full amount of the stay will be charged to the Guest’s credit card at the time of the reservation. Non-refundable reservations cannot be cancelled, changed or refunded. If a credit card cannot be charged, Hotel Schani UNO City reserves the right to cancel the reservation in question. As a result, the Guest’s right to use the room shall be void.

A flexible rate reservation can be cancelled or changed free of charge until 3:00 om on the day of arrival. For any changes to reservations made after 3:00 pm on the day of arrival, the full amount of the stay will be charged and the Guest’s right to use the room will become void. If no accommodation is available at the desired alternative date(s), it is not possible to change the reservation.

The full amount for the stay will be charged to the credit card, including any additional services that were booked in advance, on the day of arrival. In the event that the credit card cannot be charged, Hotel Schani UNO City reserves the right to cancel the reservation. This will void the Guest’s right to use the room. If the Guest does not appear on the date of arrival (no show), the full amount for the stay will be charged and the Guest’s right to use the hotel room will become void. Hotel Schani UNO City reserves the right to cancel reservations at any time. Any damage claims resulting from such cancellations are limited to the total accommodation price for the period of the reservation.

5. Registration form and transfer of personal data

Guests are obliged to provide their personal data and any additional information relevant for registration truthfully and in advance via the electronic online registration portals provided by Hotel Schani UNO City, in line with the Austrian Registration Act.

6. Taxes, changes and duties 

Valid prices are total gross prices and include all official taxes, charges and duties. Should there be changes to current tax rates, charges and/or duties, as well as the introduction of new taxes, charges and/or duties unknown to the parties at the time the contract is concluded, Hotel Schani UNO City reserves the right to adjust its prices by the appropriate sum. Accommodation prices are listed per room and per night.

7. Payment mehtods

Valid methods of payment for accommodation are Master Card, Visa Card, Diners Card, American Express and China Union Pay in euros. In addition, PayPal is available for the booking of a non-refundable rate. The provision of services against later payment is only possible with the hotel’s prior consent. Valid methods of payment for food and drink consumed on-site, as well as for other goods and services provided by Hotel Schani UNO City, are cash in euros, EC Card, Master Card, Visa Card, Diners Card and American Express in euros.

Should Hotel Schani Donau GmbH agree to a bank transfer as the payment method for deposits or services rendered, the party making the transaction must bear any potential bank charges in full, which means both the charges relating to the bank undertaking the transaction and the charges of the bank receiving the money transferred. For transactions made from outside the European Monetary Union, the mean exchange rate must be used as a basis to calculate the price in EUROS.

8. Use of reserved rooms

Reserved rooms can be used by our Guests from 3:00 pm on the day of arrival until 11:00 am on the day of departure. Guests must leave and return the cleared and undamaged room by 11:00 am on the day of their departure at the latest. In the event that the Guest does not return the hotel room by 11:00 am on the day of departure, he or she will owe Hotel Schani UNO City lump-sum compensation equivalent to 100 % of the price of an overnight stay in this room. The Guest may provide evidence that there has been no loss or reduction in value on part of Hotel Schani UNO City caused by the late return of the hotel room or that it is significantly lower than the lump-sum compensation. Furthermore, Hotel Schani UNO City reserves the right to have the room cleared by its staff and store all the Guest’s belongings left in the hotel room in the event the Guest returns the room late or not at all. Hotel Schani UNO City is not liable for any objects stored in this manner that exceed the liabilities defined in the provision for liabilities under these General Terms & Conditions (8.).

The hotel must inform the contract partner of exercising its right to cancel/terminate the contract in writing and without delay and within 14 days after gaining knowledge of the reason for the cancellation at the latest. The cancellation of the contract on the part of the hotel does not constitute any claims for damages or other compensation by the contract partner.

7. Hotel liability, items brought to the hotel, limitation period 

The hotel is only liable for all legal and contractual claims in cases of intentional or gross negligent behaviour.
