Subject of service: other, temporary accommodation services.
1.2. The specific terms and conditions do not form part of these GTC, but do not preclude the conclusion of separate, special agreements with travel agents and organisers, sometimes under different terms and conditions, depending on the specific business.
1.3. These GTC contain the general terms and conditions of the legal relationship established between the Service Provider and the Guest entering into a contractual relationship with the Service Provider. With regard to any issues not governed herein, prevailing Hungarian laws and official regulations as well as the provisions of the Hungarian Civil Code applicable for the Service Provider’s activities shall apply without any special stipulations.
1.4. Acceptance of the GTC by the Guest is a prerequisite for the purchase or use of the service. Use of the service rendered by the Service Provider constitutes acceptance of the GTC.
1.5. The Service Provider reserves the right to modify these General Terms and Conditions, in whole or in part, at any time. The GTC shall remain in force as long as the Service Provider renders its services.
1.6. These GTC are effective from 1 January 2023 and for an indefinite period.
2. Contracting parties
2.1. The services rendered by the Service Provider are used by the Guest. If the order for the services is placed directly with the Service Provider by the Guest, the Guest becomes the contracting party. If the conditions are met, the Service Provider and the Guest jointly become the contracting parties.
2.2. If the order for the services is placed with the Service Provider by a third person acting on behalf of the Guest, the terms of cooperation shall be governed by an agreement between the Service Provider and the agent. In this case, the Service Provider is not obliged to check whether the third person legitimately represents the Guest.
3. How to use the service and under what conditions

3.2. The reservation shall be concluded following the Service Provider’s written confirmation (including by email) of the Guest’s written reservation (including by email) and the payment of 100 (one hundred) percent of the total accommodation fee, and will thus be considered a written contract constituting automatic acceptance of the GTC. Verbal reservations, agreements, modifications or verbal confirmation by the Service Provider shall not be deemed a contract. Changing the dates or number of guests of an already finalised and confirmed reservation is possible depending on availability.
3.3. The contract for using the accommodation services is concluded for a fixed term. If the Guest permanently leaves the room before the fixed term expires, the Service Provider is entitled to the full price of the service as defined in the contract.
