RESERVATION AND PURCHASE TERMS
Introduction
The following are the additional terms and conditions under which you reserve a room and/or purchase a product or service through our site or one of our other digital channels, such as a mobile application from M & C Reservations Services Limited, an English company having its registered office at Victoria House, Victoria Road, Horley, Surrey, RH6 7AF, company registration number 06754684 (hereinafter ("we" or “us”) (“Purchase Terms”)).  By completing any such reservation or purchase, you expressly agree to be bound by these Purchase Terms, which are incorporated within and form a part of the Terms of Use.  

We reserve the right to amend these Purchase Terms at any time and you should therefore check them each time you make a reservation or purchase a product or service.  The Purchase Terms applying to your reservation or purchase will be those in place on the date that you make your reservation or purchase.

Additional terms and conditions may apply depending on the products and/or services being purchased.  Those additional terms and conditions will be made available to you at the time of booking or purchase.  For example, when you purchase:
• accommodation at one of our hotels, our Guest Terms will apply to that booking; and/or
• any Tours+ product or service through our site, for example a tour or experience, our Tours+ Terms will apply to that purchase.

Eligibility 
You must be at least 18 years old, or the minimum age to enter into a contract as required by applicable law (if older than 18), in order to make a reservation or complete a purchase through our site.  You may make reservations or purchases through our site as the holder of a registered My Millennium account or as a guest user.  One-click purchasing is available only to registered members.

Reservations and purchases
To reserve your room or purchase a product or service, please follow the instructions on our site or the other relevant digital channel.  You may need to provide your credit or debit card details to secure your reservation or complete your purchase and we may use a third-party provider to process payments. 

Please check that the details of your reservation or purchase are complete and accurate before you confirm.  We will not be liable for any delay or non-performance if you provide us with incorrect information.

All rooms, products and services offered through our site are subject to availability at the time of booking or purchase.  We will confirm our acceptance of your reservation or purchase by sending you an e-mail to the e-mail address that you provide during the reservation or purchase process or which is associated with your registered account, if applicable.  The purchase of Tours+ products or services through our site, as described in the “Tours+” section below, will be confirmed when we send you an electronic voucher for the products or services purchased.  The contract between us for the reservation of your room and/or the purchase of any products or services will be formed only when you receive this e-mail confirmation and/or voucher.  Aside from you as the individual making the booking or purchase, no other person shall have any rights to enforce any of these Purchase Terms, whether under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 or otherwise.

You and the members of your group must not resell or transfer your reservation or any products or services purchased through our site, nor shall you or the members of your group advertise, market or otherwise offer for sale any rooms or other products or services purchased from us.  We will not honour any reservations or purchases made in this way and we do not accept any liability for refusing such reservations or purchases.

Child Policy
For our hotels in Asia, Europe, North America and New Zealand, up to two children and/or infants can stay for free when sharing a room with two adults and using existing bedding.  When the accompanying adults purchase a meal at the hotel’s food and beverage outlet or such meal is provided in conjunction with the hotel booking, children up to the age of four years can eat for free and children between the ages of five and 11 years will be charged at 50% of the accompanying adults’ meal rate. 

For our hotels in the Middle East, up to two children and/or infants can stay for free when sharing a room with two adults and using existing bedding.  When the accompanying adults purchase a meal at a hotel’s food and beverage outlet or such meal is provided in conjunction with the hotel booking, children up to the age of six can eat for free and children between the ages of seven and 11 years will be charged at 50% of the accompanying adults’ meal rate. 

Group reservations
A reservation of five rooms or more is usually considered a group booking and cannot be made through our site.  If you wish to make a group booking, please call or email the relevant hotel.  We reserve the right to terminate a reservation of five or more rooms, either through a single transaction or multiple transactions, which we determine was made through our site in a fraudulent manner or in such a manner so as to avoid the group booking requirement. 

Tours+ 
Products offered through the Tours+ section of our site are being sold by us as a selling agent on behalf of Viator.

Pricing
We adopt dynamic pricing and the price of our rooms, products and services fluctuates based on demand and other factors.  Before confirming a reservation or purchase, we will provide you with a total price for the requested number of rooms and nights, together with the charges for any additional products or services you may have added.  Depending on the room rate selected, payment may be due at the time the reservation is made through our site or at a later date, such as upon check-in at the relevant hotel. 

The price you pay is the price quoted to you at the time you make your reservation or purchase, except that if Value Added Taxes or other government taxes or surcharges are included within the price and change between the date of your reservation or purchase and the date of your stay, we will adjust the rate that you pay unless you have already paid for the reservation, product or service in full before the change takes effect.

Unless otherwise indicated, meals and other extras are not included in the room price but you may be able to add them to your reservation during the booking process or they may be available to you during your stay.    Also, the prices quoted do not include international or domestic air transportation, passport or visa handling, travel insurance, airport and port taxes, gratuities or other similar charges unless otherwise stated.  

You may pay using any one of the currencies supported by our site. The applicable exchange rates of the supported currencies shall be determined at our sole discretion, or by our payment processing provider, as the case may be.  We shall not be liable for any exchange rate losses incurred by you as a result of any credit card or other transactions effected over our site.

Please note that reservations for online bookings and/or purchases of Tours+ products by card through our site are centralised and handled by us (a UK based company).  If your card issuer is not located in the UK, they might levy a foreign transaction, cross-border or similar fee when you use your card as the payment method.  Please contact your issuing bank to see if such levy is applicable to your payment.  We shall not liable for any such fees you may incur.   

Cancellations and refunds

Your right to cancel
Prior to confirming a reservation or purchase, you will be informed about the cancellation and refund policy applicable to such reservation or purchase and that policy shall apply as if incorporated into these Purchase Terms.  

Depending on the room rate selected, some reservations may be cancelled without charge up to a specified time on the day before the arrival date.  If you cancel your reservation before such time, receive confirmation of such cancellation by e-mail, and have paid for the room in advance by credit or debit card, a full refund will be processed to the same credit or debit card.  However, if you cancel the reservation after such time, then you will be charged a cancellation charge equivalent to one night's accommodation per room booked and for any meals and other extras booked for the first day of your stay.  Please retain any cancellation confirmations as proof of the cancellation.

If you decide to shorten your stay at a property, you must inform us or the hotel by 12 noon local hotel time on the day you wish to check out.  Otherwise, you will be charged a cancellation charge equivalent to one night’s accommodation per room booked and for any meals and other extras booked for the following day.

Other reservations, particularly where discounted room rates have been provided, cannot be cancelled or amended, in which event you will not be entitled to receive a refund of the room charges and any meals or other extras booked as part of such reservations.  You may wish to take out travel insurance to cover any potential losses associated with cancellation or modification of such reservations.  

You are not entitled to cancel or withdraw from your reservation under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.

Our right to cancel
We may cancel your reservation at any time with immediate effect by giving you written notice (which includes e-mail) if you do not pay us when you are required to do so or you breach the contract between us in any other material way.  If we cancel your reservation where you are at fault, we reserve our legal rights in respect of your breach of contract.

We may also cancel your reservation if an event outside of our control (including industrial action, acts of terrorism, explosion, fire, flooding, and failure of power and/or water supplies or emergency evacuation) means that we are unable to make your room available to you.  In such event we will contact you to let you know as soon as possible and if you have already paid for your room, we will refund your payment to you, or if you have not yet paid for your room, you will not have to make any payment to us.

Save as set out above, we will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations that is caused by an event outside of our control.  Such limitation of liability does not affect your statutory rights.

Arrival and departure
It is your sole responsibility to obtain a valid visa (where required) and comply with any applicable immigration laws for your entry and stay at your destination.  Please ensure you have a valid passport for the duration of your trip.  Guests may be asked to complete a registration form and provide proof of identity and nationality upon check-in.  Unless otherwise agreed by the hotel, the customer who made the reservation through our site must be present to check-in.  

Check-in and check-out times will be notified to you as part of your reservation.  Failure to leave your room by the stated check-out time may result in a late check-out charge. 

Damage
If you or any member or invitee of your group causes damage to the hotel, injures other guests or their property, or otherwise breaches any of these Purchase Terms, we reserve the right to:
• cancel your reservation with immediate effect and (if appropriate) eject you from the hotel;
• retain all sums paid by you and/or charge you the full amount of your reservation; and/or
• refuse future reservations from you and/or refuse you entry or accommodation at any of our hotels.

We will not be liable for any refund or compensation in such circumstances.

If you are a non-business customer you have certain rights under consumer protection legislation and nothing in these Purchase Terms is intended to affect those rights.

Our liability
In addition to the provisions of the “LIMITATION OF OUR LIABILITY” section of the Terms of Use, where we are liable to you as a result of our breach of these Purchase Terms for reasons within our control, we shall only be liable for losses that are direct losses and a reasonably foreseeable consequence of such breach.   

Except as prohibited by applicable law or as set out in the “LIMITATION OF OUR LIABILITY” section, our maximum liability to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or for breach of statutory duty shall in no event exceed the price of your reservation and purchase, if applicable, unless the Hotel Proprietors Act 1956 applies, in which case our liability will be limited to the maximum prescribed under that Act.

TOURS+ TERMS

All purchases of Tours+ products and/or services through our site are subject to the following general terms and conditions (“Tours+ Terms”).  We reserve the right to amend these Tours+ Terms at any time and you should therefore check them each time you purchase a Tours+ product or service through our site.

Agency
We offer the Tours+ products and services, and facilitate their sale to you, through our site as a selling agent of Viator, Inc (“Viator”).  While we are not responsible for the acts or omissions of the third-party suppliers of the products or services, we will endeavour to assist you in amending your purchase or obtaining a refund. 

Product validity
Tours+ products and services displayed on our site are valid for the dates advised on the applicable page of our site.

Accuracy of reservations and purchases
Please ensure you provide correct names, titles and initials of any travellers/guests (as necessary) when purchasing any Tours+ product or service through our site.  We will endeavour to process a name change request in accordance with these Tours+ Terms, but will not be responsible for your errors or omissions.

We will do our best to ensure that information regarding Tours+ products on our site is accurate, but we cannot guarantee this.

Modifications
We will do our best to assist you in modifying your purchase of any Tours+ product or service, where possible.  Please direct any such requests to [email protected].  We must receive such request at least 96 hours’ prior to travel (based on the time and date of the location of the product or service).  Please note that modifications to your purchase are subject always to availability on the relevant travel date and your prompt payment of any additional charges for the modified product or service.   In order to be valid, any such modification must be confirmed by us through the issuance of an updated voucher.  If you have not received that updated voucher at least 96 hours before travel, please contact us immediately.  Where a requested modification to a specific booking does not give rise to a price change, the first two modification requests for such booking will not give rise to an additional administration fee.  Subsequent requests will be subject to an administration fee equal to US$25.00 per request, charged in the same currency as the booking transaction.  

Refunds and cancellation charges
Some of the Tours+ products and services we sell through our site are non-refundable while others may be fully refundable, without charge, if the orders are cancelled in time.  Please read all information relating to any product or service carefully prior to purchasing it.  

If you have purchased a refundable product or service, please direct your cancellation request to [email protected].  We must receive such request at least 96 hours prior to travel (based on the time and date of the location of the product or service); otherwise we cannot provide you with a refund.

Where your product or service is not delivered due to unforeseen circumstances (such as bad weather) or the third-party supplier otherwise cancels it and no alternative is available or the suggested alternative is not acceptable to you, please submit your refund request as soon as possible so we can liaise with Viator to arrange a refund from the third-party supplier. 

Except as stated above, if you purchase a non-refundable product or service or do not cancel the booking in time, then the full price of the product or service will be retained by us if you do not show or utilise the product or service.

Travel insurance
We strongly recommend you purchase comprehensive travel insurance prior to departure.  We are not responsible for cancellations due to flight delays; weather related delays or any other delays in your journey so long as the Tours+ activity/experience you purchased through our site operates as scheduled.

Travel voucher
We will issue you a voucher for each Tours+ product or service you purchase through our site.  While third party suppliers may not collect or redeem these vouchers, you should carry this voucher and photo identification of the lead traveller to the activity or experience.  We may issue one of two different types of vouchers, including:
• Paper voucher – the exact voucher must be printed and provided at the time of travel; or
• E-Voucher – a paper copy of the voucher is not required, but an electronic copy will need to be presented.
In some cases no voucher will be required.

If you cannot access your voucher from the link provided, please copy and paste the link into a fresh browser page and try again or forward the e-mail containing the voucher link to another e-mail address and try to print it through another browser.  If that still does not work, please contact us with the booking details and we will send a new voucher link or arrange for the voucher to be sent to you by facsimile or another method.

Some products or services require re-confirmation of travel 24 hours in advance.  Please refer to the voucher instructions for details.  If you will not be arriving at your destination in time to re-confirm, please notify the service provider or operator prior to 24 hours in advance.  All relevant details will be included on the voucher. 

Our responsibility to you
By purchasing a Tours+ product from our site, you acknowledge that we, our agents, employees and suppliers will not be liable for any injury, damage, loss, accident, delay or irregularity, liability or expense to person or property arising due to the act of default of any hotel, carrier or other company or person providing services or products as part of your Tours+ purchase.  Further, we, our agent’s employees and suppliers accept no responsibility for any sickness, pilferage, labour disputes, machinery breakdown, government restrains, acts of war and terrorism, weather conditions, or for any misadventure or casualty or any other causes beyond their control.  We reserve the right to cancel, change or substitute any service and to decline to accept or retain any passengers at any time for any reason including, without limitation, insufficient number of participants.  All vouchers are issued subject to the terms and conditions specified by us, our agents and suppliers.
