Hotel Accommodation Contract General Terms and Conditions

SCOPE

1.1 These General Terms and Conditions apply to contracts concluded by Waldhotel Stuttgart GmbH and the contractual partner for renting hotel rooms for accommodation, other services rendered for the Client in this context and supplies by the Hotel (hotel accommodation contract). “Hotel Accommodation Contract” includes and replaces the following terms: lodging, guest accommodation, hotel and hotel room contract.

1.2 The Hotel's previous written approval is required for sub-letting hotel rooms, spaces or glass cabinets and for invitations to job interviews, selling or similar events , whereby sec. 540(1) second sentence of the German Civil Code (BGB [Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch]) is hereby waived, provided that the Client is not a consumer.

1.3 The Client’s general terms and conditions only apply if this was previously expressly agreed upon in writing.

2  CONTRACT CONCLUSION/PARTNERS, LIMITATIONS

2.1 The Hotel and the Client are the contract partners. The Contract is concluded upon the Hotel accepting the Client’s application and the Hotel may confirm bookings in text form.

2.2 Claims against the Hotel generally become time-barred one year from the legal beginning of the limitation period. Damage claims that were asserted against the Hotel become time-barred 3 years after the violation of duty, if known, and 10 years after the violation of duty, if unknown. These reductions of the statute of limitations shall not apply to claims resulting from damage caused by intentional and grossly negligent conduct on the part of the Hotel and shall not apply to any injury to life, limb or health caused as a result of negligence. In the event of material damage and financial losses that were caused through negligence, the reduced statute of limitations shall not apply if a major contractual duty was violated.

3  SERVICES, PRICES, PAYMENT, OFFSETTING

3.1 The Hotel must hold the rooms which the Client booked ready and render contractual services.

3.2 The Client must pay the contractual/valid prices for the provided hotel room and any services which they use. This also applies to third-party services which the Client booked directly or via the Hotel and for which the Hotel makes advance payments.

3.3Contractual prices include taxes and local charges applicable at the time of contract conclusion. They do not include local charges which the Client, based on municipal law, must pay themselves, such as visitor's taxes.

Prices will be adjusted following contract conclusion if statutory value-added tax rates change or if local charges on the services are introduced, changed or abolished. This applies to contracts with consumers only if the period between contract conclusion and fulfilment is more than four months.

3.4 The Hotel may subject their approval of subsequent reductions of the number of hotel rooms, Hotel services or the term of the Client’s stay to increases in the price for the rooms and/or for other Hotel services.

3.5 Hotel invoices showing no due date must be paid in full immediately. The Hotel may request the Client at any time to immediately effect any outstanding payments. In the event of arrears, the Hotel may request legal default interest of currently 9% and/or, for legal transactions with consumers, of 5% above the base lending rate; the Hotel may also produce evidence showing additional damage.

3.6 Upon contract conclusion, the Hotel may request reasonable advance payments or collaterals from the Client, such as credit card guarantees. The amount and time of advance payments may be contractually agreed upon in text form. With advance payments or collaterals for holiday packages, legal provisions shall not be affected.

3.7 In certain cases, such as the Client being in arrears or the scope being extended, the Hotel may, also following contract conclusion until the time of the stay, request advance payments or collaterals in terms of clause 3.6 above or increase contractual advance payments or collaterals up to the full contract price.

3.8 Also, the Hotel may, at the beginning and during the Client’s stay, request reasonable advance payments or collaterals in terms of clause 3.6 for existing and future contractual claims, unless they have already been made or provided in terms of clause 3.6 and/or 3.7 above.

3.9 The Client has a right to offset the Hotel’s claims only against their undisputed or legally effective claims.

4  WITHDRAWAL BY THE CLIENT (CANCELLATION)/NON-UTILISATION OF HOTEL SERVICES (NO-SHOW)

4.1 The Client may withdraw from the contract with the Hotel only if the contract expressly provides for such right, if a statutory right to withdrawal applies or if the Hotel expressly agrees to contract cancellation. A withdrawal right agreement and a possible contract cancellation approval must be made in text form.

4.2 If the Hotel and the Client agreed upon a deadline for free withdrawal from the contract, the Client may withdraw until that moment without establishing any payment/compensation claims for the Hotel. The Client’s right to withdrawal lapses if they fail to exercise this right before the contractually agreed deadline.

4.3 If no right to withdrawal was agreed upon or if this has already lapsed, if no statutory withdrawal right exists and if the Hotel rejects contract cancellation, the Hotel shall continue to have a claim for the contractual price despite the Client not using the services. However, the Hotel must reduce payments by income from otherwise renting the rooms and by saved expenses. If the rooms are not rented to other guests, the Hotel may deduct lump-sum saved expenses. In this case, the Client must pay at least 90% of the contractual price for overnight stays, including or excluding breakfast costs, and for holiday packages including third-party services, 70% for half-board contracts and 60% for full-board contracts. The Client may produce evidence showing that the above claim was established not at all or not to the requested amount. The Hotel reserves the right to prove that higher expenses were incurred.

4.4 The damage claims asserted by the Hotel will be communicated to the Client immediately after the contract was cancelled and the specified amounts shall be paid immediately after receipt of the invoice without a due date being indicated.

5  WITHDRAWAL BY THE HOTEL

5.1 If it was agreed that the Client may freely withdraw from the contract within a given period, the Hotel may, during that period, withdraw from the contract if they receive room bookings from other guests and if the Client, following a query from the Hotel with a reasonable period, fails to waive their right to withdrawal.

5.2 If the Client fails to provide advance payments or collateral agreed or requested in terms of clause 3.6 and/or 3.7 after a reasonable grace period granted by the Hotel, the Hotel may also withdraw from the contract.

5.3 The Hotel may withdraw from the contract for legitimate reasons particularly in the following cases:
-  force majeure events or other circumstances beyond the Hotel’s control making contract fulfilment impossible;
-  rooms being booked by culpably providing misleading or false information or by concealing significant facts, such as the Client's identity, credit standing of the purpose of the stay;
-  the Hotel having reason to believe that the use of the services impacts on smooth business operations, the safety and the Hotel’s reputation without this being within the Hotel’s control;
-  the purpose and/or the reason of the stay being illegal; or
-  a violation of clause 1.2 above.

5.4 Withdrawal shall be declared in writing towards the Client.

5.5 Legitimate contract withdrawal by the Hotel shall not establish any claims for damages for the Client.

6  ROOM PROVISION AND RETURN

6.1 The Client acquires no claim for the provision of certain rooms, unless this was expressly agreed.

6.2 Booked rooms will be provided to the Client from 3.00 p.m. at the day of arrival; they have no claim for earlier provision.

6.3 At the relevant day of departure, rooms must be vacated by 11.00 a.m. at that latest. After that, the Hotel may request a surcharge for delayed vacation amounting to 50% of the full lodging price (daily rate) if the room is vacated by 3.00 p.m. and to 90% if the room is vacated after 3.00 p.m. This does not establish any contractual claims for the Client and they have the right to produce evidence showing that the Hotel has no claim for usage fees or that such claim is much lower.

7  LIABILITY OF THE HOTEL

7.1 The Hotel is liable for damage within their control resulting from injuries to life, limb or health. Also, the Hotel is liable for other damage based on intentional or grossly negligent violations of the Hotel’s duties and/or such violations of the Hotel’s duties typical of such contracts. Violations of the Hotel’s representatives or vicarious agents are deemed violations of the Hotel. Unless otherwise provided under clause 7, any other claims for damages are excluded. In the case of Hotel services disruptions or defects, the Hotel will take efforts to remove them once this comes to the Hotel’s attention or once the Client notifies it thereof. The Client must reasonably cooperate to remove disruptions and to minimise damage resulting from this.

7.2 The Hotel’s liability for objects which the Client brought along is subject to valid legal provisions and the Hotel recommends using the hotel/room safe. If the Client intends to store money, securities and precious objects with a value of more than EUR 800.00 or any other objects with a value of more than EUR 3,500.00, a separate storage contract with the Hotel is required.

7.3 To the extent the Client is provided with a parking space at the Hotel garage/car park, also against payment, this does not establish a storage contract with the Hotel. If vehicles parked/shunted at the Hotel property are stolen or damaged, the Hotel is liable only in terms of clause 7.1 first to fourth sentence above.

7.4 The Hotel will perform wake-up calls with utmost care. Messages, letters and goods deliveries for the Client will be treated with diligence. The Hotel delivers, stores and – upon request – forwards them against payment, whereby the Hotel is liable only in terms of clause 7.1 first to fourth sentence above.

8  FINAL PROVISIONS

8.1 Amendments of and supplements to the contract, contract acceptance and these General Terms and Conditions for Events must be made in text form; unilateral amendments and supplements by the Client are invalid.

8.2 The place of fulfilment and payment is the Hotel’s registered office.

8.3 The exclusive venue – also for cheque and draft disputes – concerning commercial transactions is the Hotel’s registered office. Should the Client fulfil the requirements of sec. 38(2) of the German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO [Zivilprozessordnung]) and have no venue in Germany, the Hotel’s registered office is the venue.

8.4 German law applies; the CISG and international private law provisions are hereby excluded.

8.5 If individual provisions of these General Terms and Conditions for Events are or become ineffective or void, this does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions; the legal provisions apply to any other matter.

1.3 The Client’s general terms and conditions only apply if this was previously agreed upon in written form.

2  CONTRACT CONCLUSION/PARTNERS, LIABILITY, LIMITATIONS

2.1 The Contract is concluded by the Hotel accepting the Client’s application; the Hotel and the Client are the contract partners. The Hotel may confirm bookings in text form.

2.2 If the client/orderer is not the event organiser and/or if the event organiser employs commercial agents or third-party organisers, the event organiser and the Client are jointly and severally liable for any contractual duties if the event organiser submits a declaration to the Hotel.

2.3 The Hotel is liable for their contractual duties. The Client has no claims for damages; however, this excludes damage resulting from injuries to life, limb or health if the Hotel is responsible for such violation of duties, any other damage based on the Hotel’s intentional or grossly negligent violation of duties and any damage based on intentional or grossly negligent violations of the Hotel’s duties typical of such contract. Violations of the Hotel’s representatives or vicarious agents are deemed violations of the Hotel. In the case of Hotel services disruptions or defects, the Hotel will take efforts to remove them once this comes to the Hotel’s attention or once the Client notifies it thereof. The Client must reasonably cooperate to remove disruptions and to minimise damage resulting from this. Apart from that, the Client must timely notify the Hotel of the possibility that extraordinarily large damage is caused.

2.4 Claims against the Hotel generally become time-barred one year from the legal beginning of the limitation period. Damage claims that were asserted against the Hotel become time-barred 3 years after the violation of duty, if known, and 10 years after the violation of duty, if unknown. These reductions of the statute of limitations shall not apply to claims resulting from damage caused by intentional and grossly negligent conduct on the part of the Hotel and shall not apply to any injury to life, limb or health caused as a result of negligence. In the event of material damage and financial losses that were caused through negligence, the reduced statute of limitations shall not apply if a major contractual duty was violated.

3.1 The Hotel must provide the services which the Client booked and which the Hotel confirmed.

3.2 The Client must pay the Hotel's contractually agree/valid prices for these and other services which they use.

Contractual prices include applicable value-added tax.

3.3 Hotel invoices showing no due date must be paid in full immediately. The Hotel may request the Client at any time to immediately effect any outstanding payments. In the event of arrears, the Hotel may request legal default interest of currently 9% and/or, for legal transactions with consumers, of 5% above the base lending rate; the Hotel may also produce evidence showing additional damage.

3.5 In certain cases, such as the Client being in arrears or the scope being extended, the Hotel may, also following contract conclusion until the time of the event, request advance payments or collaterals in terms of sec. 4 above or increase contractual advance payments or collaterals up to the full contract price.

3.6 The Client has a right to offset the Hotel’s claims only against their undisputed or legally effective claims.

4  WITHDRAWAL BY THE CLIENT (CANCELLATION)

4.1 The Client’s withdrawal from contracts concluded with the Hotel requires the Hotel’s consent in text form. If this is not given, the Client must pay the full order price and services obtained from third parties even if they do not use such services and if the rooms cannot be rented otherwise.

4.2 If the Hotel and the Client agreed in text form upon a deadline for free withdrawal from the contract, the Client may withdraw until that moment without establishing any payment/compensation claims for the Hotel. The Client’s right to withdrawal lapses if they fail to exercise this right during the contractual deadline in text form.

4.6 If the Client cancels at any point later than 27 days before the date of the event, the Hotel shall have the right to demand 90% of the total order price.

4.7 Hotel rooms booked as part of the event are governed by the provisions on cancellation as agreed in the event contract.

4.8 The deduction of saved expenses is considered under clauses 3 to 6. The Client may produce evidence showing that the above claim was established not at all or not to the requested amount. The Hotel reserves the right to prove that higher expenses were incurred.

4.9 The damage claims asserted by the Hotel will be communicated to the Client immediately after the contract was cancelled and the specified amounts shall be paid immediately after receipt of the invoice without a due date being indicated.

 5  WITHDRAWAL BY THE HOTEL

5.1 If it was agreed in writing that the Client may freely withdraw from the contract within a given period, the Hotel may, during that period, withdraw from the contract if they receive requests for the reserved event rooms from other guests and if the Client, following a query from the Hotel, fails to waive their right to withdrawal with a reasonable period.

5.2 If the Client fails to provide advance payments or collaterals agreed or requested in terms of section III clause 4 and/or 5 above after a reasonable grace period granted by the Hotel, the Hotel may also withdraw from the contract.

5.3 Furthermore, the Hotel shall have the right to withdraw from the contract for extraordinary reasons where justified, such as

-force majeure or any other circumstances for which the Hotel is not responsible for making compliance with the contract impossible;

-events or rooms having been booked using misleading or incorrect essential contract information about, for example, the identity of the Client or the purpose of the event;

-the Hotel having reasonable cause to assume that the event may jeopardise the smooth operation of the Hotel, the safety or the reputation of the Hotel among the public without these risks being the responsibility of the Hotel or falling into the sphere of influence of the Hotel;

-the purpose or occasion of the event being unlawful;

-section I clause 2 being violated.

5.4 Withdrawal shall be declared in writing towards the Client.

5.5 Legitimate contract withdrawal by the Hotel shall not establish any claims for damages for the Client.

6  CHANGES TO THE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS/TIME OF THE EVENT

6.1 Changes to the number of participants must be communicated to the Hotel by not later than three working days prior to the event and they require the Hotel’s consent in text form.

6.2 In the event of upwards deviations, the actual number of participants will be charged.

6.3 If the number of participants deviates by more than 10%, the Hotel may set new prices and change confirmed rooms, unless this is not acceptable for the Client.

6.4 If the beginning and end of the event undergo any changes and if the Hotel agrees to this, the Hotel may reasonably charge such extra services, unless the Hotel is responsible for such changes.

7  BRINGING PRIVATE FOOD AND BEVERAGES

The Client is generally prohibited from bringing their own food and beverages to the events; exceptions require the Hotel’s consent in text form. In these cases, the Hotel will charge an amount to cover overhead costs.

8  TECHNICAL SYSTEMS AND CONNECTIONS

8.1 If the Hotel, at the Client’s request, procures technical and other systems from third parties, they act in the name, on behalf and on account of the Client. The Client is liable for carefully treatment and proper return and they hold the Hotel harmless against third-party claims resulting from providing these systems.

8.2 The use of the Client’s own electric equipment and connection to the Hotel's grid require the latter’s consent in text form. Costs resulting from disruptions of or damage to the Hotel’s technical systems due to such equipment being used must be borne by the Client, unless the Hotel is responsible for this. The Hotel may charge lump-sum electricity costs for using the equipment.

8.3 Subject to the Hotel’s consent, the Client may use their own telephone, fax and data transmission equipment for which the Hotel may request connection charges.

8.4 If the connection of the Client’s equipment results in Hotel equipment not being used, the Hotel may charge non-use compensation.

8.5 Any malfunctions of technical or other systems provided by the Hotel will be remedied immediately, if possible. Payments may not be withheld or reduced to the extent that the Hotel is not responsible for these disruptions.

8.6 The contract partner shall, at their own costs, obtain any and all official permits that might be required for the event. The contract partner is responsible for complying with any stipulations set out in such permits as well as with any other official regulations applicable to the event. Where the contract partner commissions third parties to provide services during the event (such as setting up, etc.), the contract partner shall ensure that all pertinent health and safety regulations are complied with.

8.7 In the event of private music performances, the contract partner is responsible for completing all formalities with and settling all invoices of the institutions involved (e.g. GEMA [German Performing Rights Association]).

8.8 The contract partner shall require the prior permission of the Hotel to use the name and logo of the Hotel for any advertisement for the event.

9  LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO OBJECTS BROUGHT ALONG

9.1 Exhibits or any other, including personal, objects which the Client brings along will be at the event rooms and/or on the hotel premises at the Client’s risk. The Hotel does not assume liability for any loss, destruction or damage, not even for any property damage, except for cases of gross negligence or intention of the Hotel. This does not include damage resulting from injuries to life, limb or health. Cases where the storage is a typical contract duty considering the individual circumstances are also excluded from the exclusion of liability.

9.2 Decorative materials brought by the Client must fulfil fire protection requirements in relation to which the Hotel may request official evidence to be produced. If the Client fails to produce such evidence, the Hotel may remove the Client’s materials at the Client’s expense. Due to possible damage, setting up and attaching objects must be previously agreed upon with the Hotel.

9.3 Any exhibits and other objects which the Client brings along must be removed immediately after the event. Should the Client fail to do so, the Hotel may remove and store such objects at the Client’s expense. If the objects remain at the event room, the Hotel may charge reasonable usage fees for as long as they are not removed. The Client may produce evidence showing that the above claim was established not at all or not to the requested amount.

10 THE CLIENT’S LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE

10.1 The Client shall be liable for any and all damage to the building or the inventory caused by the Client or the Client’s employees, vicarious agents or participants in and attendants of the Client’s event. An end consumer shall only be liable if they are directly responsible; companies shall be liable irrespective of fault having been proven or not.

10.2 The Hotel may request the Client to provide reasonable collaterals (such as insurance contracts, security deposits and suretyships).

11  FINAL PROVISIONS

11.1 Amendments of and supplements to the contract, contract acceptance and these General Terms and Conditions for Events must be made in text form; unilateral amendments and supplements by the Client are invalid.

11.2 The place of fulfilment and payment is the Hotel’s registered office.

11.3 The exclusive venue – also for cheque and draft disputes – concerning commercial transactions is the Hotel’s registered office. Should the Client fulfil the requirements of sec. 38(2) of the German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO [Zivilprozessordnung]) and have no venue in Germany, the Hotel’s registered office is the venue.

11.4 German law applies; the CISG and international private law provisions are hereby excluded.

11.5 If individual provisions of these General Terms and Conditions for Events are or become ineffective or void, this does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions; the legal provisions apply to any other matter.
