Scope

Article 1: Accommodation contracts and related agreements entered into between InterContinental Yokohama Grand (hereinafter referred to as “the Hotel”) and these Terms and Conditions shall govern guests. Any matters not stipulated herein shall be subject to applicable laws and regulations or generally established customs.

  • (5) Any other information the Hotel deems necessary

2. If, during their stay, a guest requests to extend their reservation beyond the dates specified in item (2) above, the Hotel shall treat such a request as a new reservation made at the time of the request.

How a Reservation Becomes Binding

Article 3: A reservation becomes binding when the Hotel accepts the guest’s request set out in the preceding Article. However, this does not apply if the Hotel can demonstrate that it did not accept the request.

If circumstances arise in which Articles 6 or 18 apply, the deposit shall be applied in the order of cancellation charges, then damages, with any remaining balance refunded upon payment of the charges under Article 12.
4. If the deposit referred to in paragraph 2 is not paid by the specified date, the reservation will cease to be valid. This applies only where the Hotel has informed the guest of this condition when specifying the payment deadline.

Waiver of Deposit Requirement

Article 4: Notwithstanding paragraph 2 of the preceding Article, the Hotel may agree to waive the deposit after a reservation has become binding.
2. If, when accepting a reservation, the Hotel does not request payment of the deposit set out in paragraph 2 of the preceding Article, or does not specify a payment deadline, the reservation will be regarded as having been accepted under the waiver described above.
