All bookings made by Hostelbookers.com are as agents for the accommodation provider concerned. We are not a party to the agreement between you and the accommodation provider and have no responsibility or liability to you in respect of the terms of that contract.

While we make a reasonable effort to ensure that the accommodation listed is of an acceptable standard, the listing of any accommodation premises on this site is not and should not be taken to be a recommendation from Hostelbookers.com, or a representation that the premises will be suitable for the users purpose. Hostelbookers.com shall not be liable to you in the event that the accommodation is not suitable for your purpose. Confirming a Reservation Upon confirming a reservation, you agree to pay a non-refundable deposit of 10% of the total value of your booking in addition to any booking fees in effect at the time of booking. You will be responsible to the accommodation provider for payment of the balance of the accommodation cost together with the payment of charges for any additional services subsequently contracted for with the provider and, where applicable, payment of the provider's service charges and taxes specified in the terms and conditions of trade applied by the accommodation provider. You must use a credit or debit card to confirm a reservation. By making a reservation with your credit / debit card you authorise the accommodation provider to charge one night’s room charge to your card without further reference to you, in the event that you cancel your reservation less than 48 hours from your agreed check- in time or in the event that you fail to arrive. Non-arrival will result in the cancellation of your entire reservation. Any changes to your reservation must be notified to and agreed with the accommodation provider directly, and are at the discretion of the accommodation provider. Upon confirming a reservation, it is your responsibility to disclose to the accommodation provider any physical, mental or other condition to which you or any other member of your party is subject to, which may require the accommodation provider to make special provisions or facilities available. Any such provisions or facilities are made at the accommodation provider’s discretion. Once a Reservation is Confirmed Hostelbookers.com will issue the booking form on behalf of the service provider for each reservation, but does not undertake to include charges for additional services or details of the service charges or taxes of the accommodation provider. We suggest that you check and confirm with the accommodation provider the precise terms and conditions upon which they make the reserved service available to you. The reservation numbers included on your booking confirmation should be quoted to the accommodation provider in all enquiries, cancellations or amendments to the reservation. Cancellations & Amendments to Bookings Hostelbookers.com do not accept responsibility for cancellations or amendments to bookings under any circumstances. We do not accept any liability for losses, additional expenses you incur, or any claim whatsoever, due to changes in the accommodation provided, sickness, adverse weather conditions, strikes, Acts of God, or for any other reason.
