1.3 The guest's general terms and conditions shall only apply if this has been expressly agreed in writing in advance.
2 CONCLUSION OF CONTRACT, PARTNERS
2.1 The hotel accommodation contract is concluded upon acceptance of the guest's application by the hotel. The hotel is free to confirm the room booking in text form. In the case of bookings via the hotel's own homepage, the contract is concluded by clicking on the button "BOOK WITH PAYMENT".
2.2 In cases 1.1.2 and 1.1.3, the contract is concluded by the guest's acceptance of the offer submitted by the hotel. The contractual partners are the hotel and the guest. If the customer concludes the contract in the name of a third party, it is the third party and not the customer who becomes the hotel's contractual partner. The customer must specifically inform the hotel of this in good time before conclusion of the contract and inform the hotel of the name and address of the actual contractual partner.
2.3 If the customer recognisably concludes the contract in the name of the third party or if the third party has commissioned a commercial agent or organiser for the contractual processing, the customer, agent or organiser shall be jointly and severally liable with the third party who becomes the contractual partner for all obligations arising from the contract, insofar as the hotel has received corresponding declarations from the customer, agent or organiser. Irrespective of this, the customer is obliged to pass on to the third party all information relevant to the booking, in particular these General Terms and Conditions.
2.4 All claims against the hotel are generally subject to a limitation period of one year from the commencement of the statutory limitation period. Claims for damages shall become statute-barred after five years, irrespective of knowledge. The shortening of the limitation period shall not apply to claims based on an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by the hotel.
3 SERVICES, PRICES, PAYMENT, OFFSETTING, COUNTERCLAIMS
3.1 The hotel is obliged to keep the rooms booked by the guest available and to provide the agreed services in accordance with these General Terms and Conditions or to provide an adequate replacement.
In particular, the hotel must provide the rooms and areas booked by the guest. However, the Guest shall only be entitled to the provision of specific rooms if the Hotel has confirmed this in text form.
3.2 The guest is obliged to pay the agreed or applicable prices of the hotel for the provision of the rooms/spaces/areas and the other services used by him (including all ancillary services such as consumption, telephone, laundry, etc.). This also applies to services ordered by the guest directly or via the hotel, which are provided by third parties and disbursed by the hotel.
3.3 The agreed prices include the taxes and local charges applicable at the time the contract is concluded. Not included are local taxes that are owed by the guest according to the respective municipal law, such as visitor's tax. In the event of a change in the statutory value added tax or the introduction, change or abolition of local levies on the subject matter of the service after conclusion of the contract, the prices shall be adjusted accordingly. In the case of contracts with consumers, this only applies if the period between the conclusion and fulfilment of the contract exceeds four months. If the period between the conclusion of the contract and the start of the event exceeds one year and the price generally charged by the hotel for the contractual services increases, the contractually agreed price may be increased appropriately, but by no more than the applicable consumer price index.
3.4 If the guest utilises further services of the hotel or has arranged for services or expenses of the hotel to be provided to third parties, the guest must pay the applicable or agreed prices. This also applies in particular to claims by copyright collecting societies (e.g. GEMA). In the case of events with entertainment subject to GEMA registration, the hotel merely acts as an intermediary. Registration with GEMA is the responsibility of the organiser, or alternatively the artist engaged by the organiser. In the event of failure to do so, the organiser alone shall be fully liable. The hotel is not obliged to conclude contracts with such companies without a separate agreement.
3.5 The hotel may make its consent to a subsequent reduction in the number of rooms booked, the hotel's services or the length of the guest's stay requested by the guest dependent on the price for the rooms and/or for the hotel's other services being increased.
3.6 Hotel invoices without a due date are payable immediately upon receipt of the invoice without deduction. The hotel may demand immediate payment of due claims from the guest at any time. In the event of late payment, the hotel is entitled to demand the applicable statutory default interest for companies in the amount of 10% above the base interest rate or, in the case of legal transactions involving a consumer, in the amount of 5% above the base interest rate. The hotel reserves the right to provide evidence of higher damages. After default of payment has occurred, the hotel may charge pre-trial reminder costs of 12.00 euros for each reminder.
3.7 The hotel is entitled to demand a reasonable advance payment or security deposit from the guest upon conclusion of the contract, for example in the form of a credit card guarantee. The amount of the advance payment and the payment dates may be agreed in text form in the contract. In particular in cases 1.1.2 and 1.1.3, 50% of the expected turnover must be paid up to 27 days before the start of the event.
3.8 In justified cases, e.g. if the guest is in arrears with payment or if the scope of the contract is extended, the hotel is entitled to demand an advance payment or security deposit within the meaning of Section 3.7 above or an increase in the advance payment or security deposit agreed in the contract up to the full agreed remuneration, even after conclusion of the contract up to the beginning of the stay.
3.9 Furthermore, the hotel is entitled to demand a reasonable advance payment or security deposit from the guest at the beginning and during the stay within the meaning of the above clause 3.7 for existing and future claims arising from the contract, insofar as such a payment has not already been made in accordance with the above clause 3.7 and/or clause 3.8.
3.10 The Guest may only exercise a right of retention, offset or reduce a claim against the Hotel if such claim is undisputed or has been recognised by declaratory judgement.
3.11 The guest agrees that the invoice may be sent to him electronically.
4 SPECIAL AGREEMENTS ON EVENT SERVICES
4.1 Changes to the number of participants and the time of the event
The guest is obliged to inform the hotel of the expected number of participants when booking the event.

10.1.4 Should disruptions or defects in the hotel's services occur, the hotel shall endeavour to remedy the situation upon immediate complaint by the guest. If the guest culpably fails to notify the hotel of a defect, the guest shall not be entitled to a reduction of the contractually agreed remuneration. The guest is also obliged to make reasonable efforts to rectify the fault and to avoid or minimise the threat of damage.

life, body and health as well as in the case of the assumption of a guarantee by the hotel and in the case of fraudulently concealed defects.

legal grounds, including claims arising from unauthorised acts. The above limitations and exclusions of liability shall also apply in cases of any claims for damages by a guest against employees or vicarious agents of the hotel.

time at which the guest becomes aware of the damage or, irrespective of this knowledge, at the latest after three years from the time of the damaging event.
