In case when between the hotel and customer was agreed in writing an appointment to withdraw from the contract, the customer may withdraw from the contract up to that date without incurring payment or damage compensation claims by the hotel.

4.4. In case of early departure communicated to the hotel during the stay of the guest, the hotel reserves to charge 100% of the cost per night, up to the originally reserved departure date. Payments paid or made several times even double bookings will not be refunded, but these will only be charged with a voucher for additional nights in the amount of payments made. The validity period of the vouchers is determined on the basis of assessment and availability of the hotel rooms.

5. Cancellation by the hotel
5.1. If the customer’s right to withdraw from the contract has been agreed in writing within a certain period of time, the hotel is entitled to withdraw from the contract during this period if requests from other customers for the contractually booked rooms are available and the customer does not waive the hotel’s right to withdraw from the contract.

8.3. The customer can only offset the counterclaim against the hotel to the extent that his claims are uncontested or legally established.
