Arrival time

Upon booking accommodation, please indicate your estimated time of arrival. If you wish to check-in before the official check-in time, it is recommended that you book and pay for the room for the evening prior to your arrival.

Failure to advise your arrival time if arriving after 18:00 may mean that your room will be released and you will be charged a no-show fee.
