BOOKING TERMS & CONDITIONS

Please read these Terms & Conditions carefully.

By using this website and the Donnington Manor Hotel online booking service you are agreeing to be bound by the Terms and Conditions detailed below which form the basis of your
contract with Donnington Manor Hotel. In the Terms & Conditions set out below, “you” and “your” refers to all persons named on the booking, which includes any individual(s) subsequently added or substituted at a later date. “We”, “us” and “our” all refer to Donnington Manor Hotel.
Please print and retain a copy of this Agreement for your records as it may occasionally be updated.

1. Making a booking
By making a booking you are confirming that you are authorised to do so on behalf of all persons named in the booking and you are acknowledging that all members of your party agree to be bound by these Booking Terms & Conditions.

When your booking has been made a confirmation will be sent to you by email using the email address that you have supplied. You should retain a copy of this confirmation for your
reference. Booking confirmations are subject to the availability of accommodation at the hotel. You should carefully check the details of your confirmation as soon as you receive it.
You must contact Donnington Manor Hotel immediately if any of the details are incorrect or incomplete.

We will always endeavour to rectify any inaccuracies or accommodate any alterations you wish to make to your booking. We cannot accept liability for any inaccuracies that are not
brought to our attention within three days of issuing your confirmation, nor can we accept responsibility for inaccurate information that you have supplied.

2. Paying for your booking

Depending on the rate being booked, most bookings made via the Donnington Manor Hotel website must either be guaranteed with a credit or debit or paid in full at the time of booking. Where payment is due at the time of booking it will be deducted from your credit or debit card when the booking is made. For bookings where payment is not taken in advance, the balance of the payment, including any extra costs incurred during your stay, must be made when you checkout. Cash, credit or debit cards are welcome in settlement of your hotel account. (Please note that certain supplementary items may require a non-refundable deposit.)

As a measure of fraud prevention you will be required to enter the 3-digit Card Verification Value (CVV) printed on the back of your credit or debit card when making a booking online.
American Express cards have a 4-digit code, shown on the front of the card. Payments by debit or credit cards do not incur card surcharges.

Unless stated as part of your booking, additional items such as (but not limited to) the cost of external telephone calls, meals, drinks, items from the mini-bar and travel expenses, are not included in the price of your stay. If you incur any such additional costs you must settle the sum involved prior to your departure from the hotel.

All prices are quoted in GBP (£) and include Value Added Tax (VAT) at the prevailing rate at the time a payment is made.

3. VAT Invoice

A VAT invoice for your stay will be provided at the hotel on departure.

4. Price changes

Donnington Manor Hotel reserve the right to increase or decrease the price of unsold rooms at any time. The price of your room or chosen break will be confirmed when
your booking is made and, with the exception of any errors, we will not increase this price once it has been confirmed. We reserve the right to correct any errors in advertised and
confirmed prices and will do so as soon as we become aware of an error. We will notify you of any price discrepancies relating to your booking should they arise. We strongly advise
you to check that the final price of your booking is correct before making your final confirmation. Should you take advantage of a pricing error on the Donnington Manor Hotel website, or through the Reservations team, we will notify you as soon as it is brought to our attention. In the event of an unlikely situation of this kind, it would be necessary to cancel your booking and refund your money.

5. Amendments to your booking

You should notify us of any amendments to your confirmed booking by telephone or in writing (by post or by email to reservations@donningtonmanor.com) as soon as possible. Amendments are subject to availability and those made outside the cancellation period (see below) may be subject to cancellation charges.

6. Cancellations within the Cancellation Period

You will not be charged to cancel your booking should you wish to make your cancellation within the allowed cancellation period. This does not apply to Advance Purchase Rates and select packages or special offers which may be either fully non-refundable or partially non-refundable. Where this is the case, this will be detailed in the offer terms and conditions. You can cancel your booking by using the link and password provided in your booking confirmation email. A cancellation confirmation will be sent back to you at the same email address, unless you are making a cancellation outside the cancellation period.

7. Cancellations outside the Cancellation Period

On all confirmed bookings cancelled outside the specified cancellation period, there is a Cancellation Charge equivalent to the total cost of the first night’s booking value, with the exception of Advance Purchase Rates where the total cost of the booking value is taken, or unless otherwise stated. This includes non-arrivals or instances where you cannot provide proof of cancellation (cancellation confirmation or reference number) if requested to do so. Your credit or debit card will be charged a Cancellation Charge, equivalent to the total cost of the first night’s booking value on Best Flexible Rate bookings and most packages and special offers, less the deposit charged at the time of booking. Full charges apply for Advance Purchase bookings and select packages and special offers, including Christmas and New Year packages. Our cancellation policy applies to bookings of up to 9 rooms. With the exception of Advance Purchase Rates and specific packages, group bookings and offers that have their own cancellation terms. For best Flexible bookings you will not be charged for cancelling your booking should you cancel your reservation before 11:59 pm (local time) at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled day of arrival at the hotel.

Cancellations and changes made by Donnington Manor Hotel:
In the unlikely event that a hotel is unable to accommodate a confirmed reservation it may be necessary to offer an alternative of an equal standard. If at any time we need to make changes that will significantly affect your stay or we need to cancel your stay, we will tell you as soon as possible, offering a suitable alternative or a refund. This does not apply to minor changes or events during your stay, resulting from unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control.

We cannot be held responsible for cancelling your booking as a result of your failure to comply with any requirement of our Booking Terms & Conditions, and we cannot be held liable for any expenses, costs or losses incurred by you as a result of any change or cancellation. Should you decide not to honour your booking on arriving at the hotel, and choose to leave or stay at another hotel, you will be charged in full for the first night’s stay and we cannot be held liable for any expenses, costs or losses that you incur.

If a guest or a member of your party behaves in a way that causes or is likely to cause danger, upset or distress to a third party or to hotel or guest property, we are entitled, without prior notice, to curtail the stay and request that the person(s) concerned leave the hotel. No refunds or return travel arrangements will be made and we will not pay any expenses or costs incurred as a result of such a curtailment.

8. Additional Requests

All additional or special requests are subject to availability and we cannot guarantee the provision for special requests. Any additional requests made should be prior to your arrival at the hotel, giving reasonable advance notice.

9. Third party suppliers

Elements of your break may include services supplied by third parties (for example golf, clay pigeon shooting, mountain bike hire, etc). Such third party suppliers will usually have their own set of Terms and Conditions relating to the services they provide. You should consult the Terms and Conditions of any third party either before or soon after making a booking if your break includes such items.

10.Medical conditions

If you or any member of your party has a medical problem or disability which may affect your stay, please either call our Reservations team on 01732 462681 or email (reservations@donningtonmanor.com) to advise us so that we can make provision for the particular needs of the person(s) concerned, or advise you if we are unable to make such provision. If details are not provided to us at the time of booking, the hotel reserves the right to cancel the booking should it be unable to make appropriate provision for a specific need or needs.

11. Circumstances beyond our control

We cannot accept responsibility for unforeseen circumstances beyond our control. These include (but are not limited to) adverse weather conditions, flooding, power cuts in the area, fire, riot, war, terrorist activity (or threat of such activity), industrial dispute, natural disaster, or injuries and death of an individual(s) through accidental circumstances unconnected with the hotel. By making a booking you are accepting responsibility for any damage or loss caused by yourself or a member of your party. Full payment for any such damage or loss must be paid to the hotel owner or manager on demand. If you fail to do so, you will be responsible for meeting any claims subsequently made (together with our own and the other party’s full legal costs) as a result of your actions.

12. Complaints

If you are dissatisfied with any aspect of your stay you should bring the problem or issue to the attention of the duty manager at the hotel as soon as possible so that all reasonable efforts can be made to rectify the situation. If for any reason the issue cannot be resolved to your satisfaction and your booking was made through Donnington Manor Hotel, and you wish to make a complaint, you should put it in writing and send it to the Operations Manager.

Any complaints made retrospectively that arise out of your stay at a hotel, which have not been brought to the attention of the hotel during your stay are less likely to receive the same high level of attention.

Should you be dissatisfied with any aspect of the service provided by Donnington Manor Hotel, please bring it to our attention by writing to: Operations Manager, Donnington Manor Hotel, London Road, Dunton Green, Sevenoaks, Kent TN13 2TD. Complaints brought to the attention of Donnington Manor Hotel will normally receive a response within 7 working days.
