Hotel Biederstein

Am englischen Garten in München

General Terms and Conditions

Hotel Biederstein, Munich Rooms Hotel e.K., Owner: Selçuk Gürler

(Valid as of 08/2025)

1. Scope of Application

These General Terms and Conditions (GTC) apply to all contracts concluded between Hotel Biederstein, operated by Selçuk Gürler in Germany, and third parties (“Guests”) concerning the rental of hotel rooms for accommodation purposes, as well as to all additional services and deliveries provided by Hotel Biederstein in this context (Accommodation Agreement).

2. Reservations

To make a valid reservation, the Guest must provide a valid credit card or an alternative payment method offered on Hotel Biederstein’s electronic sales channels at the time of booking. Hotel Biederstein is entitled to verify the validity of such information immediately and to pre-authorize the stated payment method. This pre-authorization temporarily reduces the available balance; the charge is effected no later than the day of arrival for the full accommodation amount plus any booked additional services.

For direct bookings made with the hotel, prepayment of 100% of the total amount (accommodation plus any additional booked services) is required. This amount becomes due before arrival within the applicable cancellation period.

By making a reservation, the Guest submits an offer to conclude an Accommodation Agreement. If the requested room is available, Hotel Biederstein issues a booking confirmation, at which point the Accommodation Agreement is concluded.

Hotel Biederstein is entitled to charge the Guest’s credit card or alternative payment method also for additional charges arising from subsequent bookings, use of services, consumptions (e.g., beverages), or costs incurred due to the Guest’s behavior.

All offers concerning available rooms are non-binding. Hotel Biederstein reserves the right, at its discretion, to refuse the conclusion of an Accommodation Agreement. There is no entitlement to accommodation in a specific room. Hotel Biederstein may define industry-standard restrictions such as minimum stays, booking guarantees, or deposits for specific dates.

The Guest is obliged to provide truthful personal details and relevant additional information in advance via the electronic online check-in portals of Hotel Biederstein.

3. Cancellation Policy

A reservation is considered guaranteed once the Guest confirms payment of the accommodation services by providing valid credit card details.

  • Outside trade fairs/Oktoberfest/other events: Free cancellation of guaranteed reservations is possible up to 5 days before the scheduled arrival date (00:00 CET). Later cancellations or changes are subject to a charge of 80% of the total booked services.
  • During trade fairs/Oktoberfest/other events: Free cancellation is possible up to 14 days before arrival (00:00 CET). Cancellations thereafter will be charged at 80% of the booked services.
  • No-shows: In the event of non-arrival, 100% of the booked services will be charged as a no-show fee. Charges will be made using the credit card details provided at booking.
  • Non-refundable rates: Reservations marked as “non-refundable” cannot be cancelled or modified free of charge. In case of cancellation or no-show, the full stay amount will be retained.

Cancellations by the Hotel: If it has been contractually agreed that the Guest may withdraw from the contract within a certain period free of charge, the hotel has the right to withdraw within the same period.

Groups: For reservations of 4 rooms or more, special booking and cancellation policies apply as stated in the respective booking confirmation. Unless otherwise agreed, the following apply:

  • 50% prepayment upon booking.
  • Free cancellation up to 30 days before arrival (00:00 CET).
  • Cancellation 29–21 days before arrival: 50% of booked services.
  • Cancellation 20–14 days before arrival: 75% of booked services.
  • Cancellation within 14 days before arrival: 100% of booked services.

Reservations not secured by prepayment or credit card guarantee will not be accepted.

4. Room Rates and Other Prices

The valid prices are those stated by Hotel Biederstein at the time of contract conclusion. All prices are gross totals, including statutory taxes, fees, and charges, unless otherwise stated. Local levies payable directly by the Guest (e.g., visitor’s tax) are excluded.

If tax rates, fees, or levies change or if new, previously unknown taxes, fees, or levies are imposed, Hotel Biederstein reserves the right to adjust prices accordingly. For consumer contracts, this applies only if the period between booking confirmation and price adjustment exceeds four months.

5. Payment Terms

The total price of the booked accommodation service must be paid in advance, either at the time of booking or no later than the applicable cancellation deadline. Offsetting by the Guest is excluded unless the counterclaim is undisputed or legally established. Accepted payment methods include cash in euros, MasterCard, Visa, Diners Club, and American Express. Payments are processed via the 3D-Secure 2.0 authentication system.

6. Use of Reserved Rooms

Reserved rooms are available to the Guest from 3:00 p.m. on the arrival date until 11:00 a.m. on the departure date. Late check-out may be arranged in advance, subject to availability. If approved, EUR 20 per additional hour will be charged. Departures after 3:00 p.m. will incur the full daily room rate. There is no contractual right to late check-out or to the allocation of a specific room.

7. Resale of Rooms

The resale, subletting, or reallocation of booked rooms is strictly prohibited. In particular, offering rooms or room allotments to third parties at higher rates is not permitted.

Rooms may only be used for accommodation purposes.

8. Liability of Hotel Biederstein

Hotel Biederstein is liable for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health caused by negligence or intent.

  • Justified concerns that the Guest’s use of services may endanger hotel operations, safety, or reputation.
