General terms and conditions for the hotel accommodation contract and the purchase of vouchers in the V-Hotel (when booking via the V-Hotel website)

I. SCOPE

1. These terms and conditions apply to the contracts concluded online via the V-Hotel website for the rental of hotel rooms for accommodation, the purchase of vouchers and all other services and deliveries provided by V-Hotel for the customer.

2. The subletting or re-letting of the rooms provided and their use for purposes other than accommodation require the prior written consent of the hotel, whereby § 540 para. (1) sentence 2 BGB is waived if the customer is not a consumer.

3. The registration and use of the rented rooms for commercial use of any kind is prohibited.

4. The customer’s general terms and conditions do not apply. You will be contradicted.

II. CONCLUSION OF CONTRACT – PARTNERS, STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS

1. The presentation of the rooms and the vouchers on the V-Hotel website do not represent a legally binding offer by the V-Hotel to the customer to conclude an accommodation contract (room) or a purchase contract (voucher). By clicking on the “Book now for a fee” button, the customer makes a legally binding offer. The customer can change and view the data he has entered at any time before sending the order. The offer can only be made if the customer confirms beforehand by clicking on the box provided that he accepts the GTC. The terms and conditions are thereby included in his offer.

2. The V-Hotel will immediately confirm receipt of the offer to the customer by e-mail. The confirmation of receipt also represents acceptance of the offer. The text of the contract (ie order, general terms and conditions and order confirmation) will be sent to the customer by V-Hotel together with the declaration of acceptance on a durable medium (e-mail). The text of the contract is not saved by the V-Hotel after the conclusion of the contract and is not accessible to the customer.

3. The contract is concluded in German.

4. The contractual partners are the V-Hotel and the customer. If a third party has ordered for the customer, he is jointly and severally liable to the V-Hotel together with the customer for all obligations arising from the hotel accommodation contract/apartment accommodation contract, provided that the V-Hotel has a corresponding declaration from the third party.

5. Cancellations of rooms and similar declarations are only effective if they are made in text form.

6. In the case of group bookings of rooms for 8 or more people, the organizer is obliged to send the V-Hotel a list of participants no later than 7 days before arrival.

7. All claims against the V-Hotel become statute-barred one year from the beginning of the knowledge-dependent regular limitation period of § 199 para. (1) Civil Code. Claims for damages become statute-barred after five years, regardless of knowledge. The shortening of the limitation period does not apply to claims based on an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by V-Hotel.

III. SERVICES, PRICES, PAYMENT, OFFSET

1. V-Hotel is obliged to keep the rooms booked by the customer available and to provide the agreed services.

2. The customer is obliged to pay the applicable or agreed prices of V-Hotel for rooms provided and for other services used. This also applies to services commissioned by the customer directly or through the hotel, which are provided by third parties and paid for by the hotel.

3. The agreed prices include the respective statutory VAT. If there has been a change in the statutory value-added tax in the period between reservation and invoicing, the invoice amount will be adjusted to the value-added tax rate applicable on the day of invoicing. In the case of contracts with consumers, this only applies if the period between reservation and invoicing exceeds four months. If the period between the conclusion of the contract and the fulfillment of the contract exceeds 4 months and the price generally charged by V-Hotel for such services increases, the hotel can increase the contractually agreed price appropriately, but by no more than 5%.

4. The prices can also be changed by V-Hotel if the customer subsequently requests changes to the number of booked rooms, the services of V-Hotel or the length of stay of the guests and V-Hotel agrees to this.

5. V-Hotel invoices or the due date are payable within 14 days of receipt of the invoice without deduction. The V-Hotel is entitled to make accrued claims due at any time and to demand immediate payment. In the event of a delay in payment, the V-Hotel is entitled to charge interest of 9 percentage points or, in the case of legal transactions involving a consumer, 5 percentage points above the respective base interest rate of the Deutsche Bundesbank. In addition, in the event of default, the V-Hotel can charge a fee of EUR 2.00 per reminder. The V-Hotel reserves the right to prove higher damage.

6. Upon conclusion of the contract or thereafter, V-Hotel is entitled to demand an appropriate advance payment or security deposit (e.g. deposit of a valid credit card with appropriate coverage at reception), taking into account the legal provisions for package tours. The amount of the advance payment and the payment dates can be agreed in writing in the contract.

7. The customer can only offset or set off against a claim of the V-Hotel or exercise a right of retention with an undisputed or legally binding claim.

IV. WITHDRAWAL BY THE CUSTOMER (CANCELLATION, CANCELLATION) / FAILURE TO USE V-HOTEL SERVICES

1. Cancellation by the customer of the contract concluded with V-Hotel requires the consent of V-Hotel in text form, unless there is a statutory right of cancellation. If this does not take place, the agreed price from the contract must be paid even if the customer does not make use of the contractual services. This does not apply in the event of a breach of the V-Hotel’s obligation to take into account the rights, objects of legal protection and interests of the customer if this means that adherence to the contract can no longer be reasonably expected of the customer, or if another statutory or contractual right of withdrawal applies.

2. If a date for withdrawal from the contract has been agreed in writing between the V-Hotel and the customer, the customer can withdraw from the contract up to that point without incurring payment or damage claims on the part of the V-Hotel.

Item 1 Clause 3 of the customer’s withdrawal.

3. If a right of withdrawal has not been agreed or has already expired, there is also no statutory right of withdrawal or termination and the V-Hotel does not agree to a cancellation of the contract, the hotel retains the right to the agreed remuneration despite non-use of the service. The V-Hotel must offset the income from renting the rooms to other parties as well as the expenses saved. If the rooms are not rented out elsewhere, the hotel can make a flat-rate deduction for saved expenses. In this case, the customer is obliged to pay 80% of the contractually agreed price for accommodation with or without breakfast and for package deals with third-party services, 70% for half-board and 60% for full-board packages. The customer is free to prove that the aforementioned claim did not arise or did not arise in the required amount.

4. Reservations for up to 3 nights per hotel room can be canceled free of charge up to 6 p.m. one day before the start of the service period (planned arrival). Clause IV. Item 3 applies accordingly

5. Reservations for more than 3 nights per hotel room can be canceled free of charge up to 6 p.m. 7 days before the start of the service period (planned arrival). Clause IV. Item 3 applies accordingly.

6. Groups with more than 5 hotel rooms can cancel their booking completely free of charge up to 28 days before the agreed start of the service period. Clause IV. Item 3 applies accordingly.

up to 7 days before the start of the service period (scheduled arrival) 18:00 100% can be canceled free of charge.
After that 80% of the room rate will be charged.
