Booking conditions
In order to guarantee your reservation, a bank pre-authorization can be made from the date of reservation to the date of check-in. This will correspond to the amount of your first night at the establishment. The security deposit will be fully returned to you if no damage was noted by the property upon departure. When booking 4 rooms or more, different conditions and additional supplements may apply.
Secure transaction
Our site uses some of the most advanced current internet security technologies. All booking steps are secured using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, a leading technology in the field. Your information is encrypted and protected through server authentication and data flow encryption. The security certificate used is issued by the accredited third party company UserTrust RSA Certification Authority and used by the D-EDGE reservation system. You can check the validity of the certificate. In addition, the reservation system is hosted in a secure server environment equipped with biometric security, firewalls, and other advanced technologies to avoid interference and prevent intrusion.
Cancelling or changing the reservation of a service
For Accommodation Services (reservation of rooms in an establishment or other types of accommodation), the Customer is reminded that he does not have the right of withdrawal provided for in article L. 221-18 of the Consumer Code, in accordance with article L. 221-28 paragraph 12 of the Consumer Code, which excludes this right for contracts relating to the provision of accommodation services that must be provided at a specific date or period. For each Service reservation, the Special Conditions specify the terms and conditions for cancelling and/or modifying the reservation. Bookings with prepayment cannot be subject to any changes and/or cancellations. Deposits (amounts paid in advance) will not be refunded. In this case, it is mentioned in the Special Conditions.

- the modification or cancellation of the reservation of a Service can be made directly to the establishment, whose contact details, in particular telephone, are specified on the reservation confirmation sent by email. In the event of interruption of a Service due to the Customer, the full agreed price will be collected. In the case of a reservation with prepayment prior to the stay, no refund will be granted. It is advisable to cancel as soon as possible once the cause of the cancellation has occurred.
Cancellation fees
Cancellation fees are not refundable if a non-cancellable, non-refundable rate is selected. For all other offers, please refer to the conditions presented in the booking engine.
