all users (either as individuals or as a group) and those of Twinroom
in relation to the services offered by Twinroom by way of this website.
Before you click on the "confirm" button at the end of
the booking process, please carefully read these terms and conditions.
By clicking on the "confirm" button you are consenting
to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not agree to

Parties
These terms and conditions are made between Twinroom and whosoever
shall use this website ("You").
Use of Site
You may only use the website to make legitimate enquiries or bookings
and hereby undertakes not to make any speculative, false or fraudulent
booking or any booking in anticipation of demand. You also undertake
to provide correct and accurate e-mail, postal and/or other contact
details to Twinroom and acknowledge that Twinroom may use these
details to contact you in the event that this should prove necessary.
Making a Booking
Any booking made or order placed by you shall be deemed to be an
offer by you to purchase the relevant hotel accommodation subject
to these booking conditions. No contract between you and Twinroom
shall come into existence until Twinroom (a) issues a booking reference
number; (b) issues a booking confirmation by email or fax; and (c)
receives payment in full.
Amendments and cancellations by you
Amendments and changes where EITHER the number of rooms OR the number of nights
decreases will be charged as follows. You may cancel or amend your booking
within 1 hour of confirmation without being charged so long as your time of
booking is before the hotel's own cancellation period.
The hotel's cancellation period varies from 1 day upwards depending on the
arrival date. During busy periods it is typically 3 days but may be longer.
The exact cancellation period for your booking can be seen in the terms and
conditions on the payment page before you complete your booking.
No-shows (where guests do not arrive at the hotel for whatever reason) are
charged at the first night's rate. On occasions, particularly during fair
periods it may be necessary to vary these terms in accordance with terms laid
down by our suppliers. Twinroom reserves the right to alter this charging
structure in such circumstances by notifying you in advance and gaining
your acceptance.
If you do not arrive at the accommodation on the date on which
you booked to arrive or you leave the accommodation earlier than
the date on which you booked to leave, then you will only be entitled
to cancel or amend the booking from the time when Twinroom receives
notification from you during Twinroom working hours. All such cancellations
and amendments are subject to you incurring the charge as indicated
in the terms above.
Cancellations and/or amendments of bookings will only be valid
if effected through the web site or to Twinroom in writing and reconfirmed
to a customer in writing by Twinroom.
Amendments, cancellations and curtailment by the hotel
In the very unlikely event that the hotelier cannot provide the
booked accommodation, you understand that the hotelier's responsibility
is to find an alternative of at least a similar standard, and provide
transportation as appropriate to this alternative hotel. Twinroom
takes every precaution to ensure hotels are professionally managed
so that any such occurrence is extremely rare. Twinroom shall have
no liability in respect of any other costs, losses or damages existing
out of or in connection with relocation of accommodation since such
relocation is outside Twinroom's control.
Payment for reservations is due, in all cases, at the time of booking.
Regardless of whether vouchers have been issued or not, Twinroom
reserves the right to cancel reservations if payment has not been
received, or if payment is still outstanding for any other unrelated
reservations.
Accuracy of Information
Twinroom and its suppliers have taken reasonable care to ensure
that the content of the website including all hotel information,
city information and listings are accurate. The hotel information
and listings are compiled from information provided by the hotels
that are listed. Twinroom publishes such information in good faith.
You acknowledge and accept that Twinroom cannot be held responsible
for any inaccuracies in such information, nor can liability be accepted
for changes to facilities which are not notified to Twinroom by
the hotel in question. You also acknowledge that while Twinroom
endeavours to keep accurate and up-to-date all information contained
on this website, Twinroom cannot be responsible for errors, omissions
or misleading information contained in the hotel listings or information.
Star Ratings and quality of Accommodation
You acknowledge that star ratings may vary in quality from country
to country and cannot be relied on to identify the quality of the
accommodation. You acknowledge that the star rating is merely a
general outline and may not apply in each case. Similarly, you acknowledge
that the type of rooms provided by a hotel (i.e. single, double,
twin, triple) may also vary from country to country and bedding
options are not guaranteed, they are simply on a request basis with
the hotel. It is your responsibility to check the type of the accommodation
and services provided by each hotel. Details of each hotel which
may be booked via this website are outlined in this website.
Discounted rates
Hotels sometimes impose supplements which means that the price advertised
on Twinroom may be higher than the hotel's published rate. This
can happen at any period when rooms are very scarce. Twinroom will
only sell a room at higher than the published rate if it feels that
its customer's interest is better served by having this room rather
than finding nothing available at all. In such busy periods, and
only at the customer's request, Twinroom sometimes finds rooms in
hotels which have been reliably recommended by third parties. Such
hotels are offered to clients in good faith.
Complaints
Any complaint regarding the Hotel should be notified to the Hotel
Reception desk or to the relevant Hotel Representative during your
stay at the hotel and the hotel management must be given adequate
opportunity to rectify the situation from the outset. Where any
such complaint is not rectified by the hotel in question to your
satisfaction, you should contact Twinroom immediately and Twinroom
will endeavour to assist. Should you remain unsatisfied a further
complaint should be made in writing to Twinroom not later than seven
days after termination of the hotel stay. Where possible, the written
complaint to Twinroom should be supported by photographs or other
written/visible proof of the complaint.
Passports and Visas
Twinroom cannot be held liable for any loss incurred in the event
of your failure to hold the necessary passports, visas and documentation
for their journey. You are advised to check with the relevant visa
departments of the Countries they wish to visit.
Price changes
Twinroom reserves the right to revise all published prices at any
time and for any reason, however no change in price will be made
once a booking has been confirmed.
Room types
i) Twin/Double rooms: Hotels often have many fewer double rooms
than twins and the provision of a double room by the hotel (even
if requested as a preference) is not guaranteed.
ii) Triple and Quadruple rooms: Some triple rooms consist of three
single beds while others consist of one double and one single. In
the same way quadruple rooms can consist of four singles, or two
double beds, or one double and two singles.
Twinroom cannot accept responsibility for any specific needs not
made known at the time of booking.
Accommodation costs
On receipt of your voucher Twinroom accepts responsibility for paying
your accommodation costs and therefore cannot accept any responsibility
for clients who pay directly to the hotel.
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Twinroom from and against
any liability, damage or loss including legal fees and expenses
that Twinroom incurs or suffers as a result of any action, inaction
or omission by you.
Consequential Loss
Under no conditions and in no event shall Twinroom or its suppliers
be liable for any consequential or special damages or losses, however
arising, (including, but not limited to negligence or breach of
these terms and conditions or otherwise) or for any loss of data,
profit, revenue or business, howsoever caused even if that loss
or damage was foreseeable by, or the possibility of it was brought
to the attention of Twinroom.
Limitation of Liability
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Twinroom's liability to you and/or
any third parties are in any and all circumstances limited to the
lesser of either:-
(a) the amount paid by you of the booking; or
(b) £500.
Assignment
You may not assign, convey, sub-contract or delegate any rights,
duties or obligations hereunder except with the written consent
of Twinroom.

property rights in and relating to this website are solely owned

System Integrity
The usage of any device, routine or software which inhibits or interferes
with the running of the Twinroom website or any booking concluded
upon it is prohibited. Any action which creates a load on the Twinroom
website or infrastructure which may be considered unreasonable or
disproportionate is prohibited.
No Guarantee of Continuous Access to Twinroom Website

to its website, nor does Twinroom guarantee secure access to its
services. The performance of the Twinroom website may be interfered
with by many factors outside its control.

at any time. Updates will be effective 5 days after they are posted
on the Twinroom website. This Agreement cannot otherwise be altered
without prior consultation with Twinroom.
Severability
These terms shall be deemed severable. In the event that any provision
is determined to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision shall
nonetheless be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law and such determination shall not effect the validity and enforceability
of any other remaining provisions.
Headings

convenience only and shall not define, extend, limit or otherwise
affect these Terms and Conditions.
Force Majeure

alter or cancel a booking, you shall not be entitled to claim compensation
for any loss arising as a consequence of the said curtailment, alteration
or cancellation. The term "Force Majeure" includes but
is not limited to acts of God, natural disaster, fire and any other
destruction of any accommodation booked, riots, acts of war or civil
commotion, exercise of legislative, municipal, military or other
authority, strikes, industrial action or any other reason beyond
the control of Twinroom.
Entire Agreement
These terms contain the entire agreement between Twinroom and you
and supersedes any prior understandings or agreements (whether oral
or written) regarding the subject matter and may not be amended
or modified unless expressly agreed by Twinroom in writing.
Governing Law
These Terms and Conditions are subject to English Law and to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of England.
