Terms and Conditions

All bookings are handled by our sales team from Alpeffect Hotels. www.alpeffecthotels.eu sells holiday trips to the Alps on behalf of SkiTravelGroup AG.

Hotel category

If you want to book a holiday it is very important to find a suitable hotel category for you. The hotels in our offer are divided into 5 categories. A + at the indicated category means that the hotel has a higher standard than the categorization dictates. We emphasize that the categorization was made by us. There may be differences from one destination to another, and there may be some differences between our categorization, and the actual given stars at the hotels. Our assessment is based on facilities in and around the hotel, the distance to the lift, the distance to the centre, the room / apartment standard, and the overall impression of the service and atmosphere.

Modest standard. Good, if you just need a place to sleep.

Rooms are small and simply furnished. Facilities at the hotel are modest.

The most booked category. A good accommodation, and the hotel have some facilities on site.

Good accommodation. Can be a 3-star hotel that has been upgraded for example due to the good location at the cable car.

The best quality. If you want luxury and many facilities.

Board

All-inclusive starts with dinner on arrival day and ends with breakfast on departure day. Half board (1/2) starts with dinner on arrival day and ends with breakfast on departure day. ¼-board (1/4) begins with breakfast on the day after arrival and ends with breakfast on departure day.

Accommodation

The room / apartment is ready on arrival from 15:30 at most of the hotels. On departure, the room / apartment usually has to be vacated at 09:00. In some hotels / resorts the rooms can occur unequally furnished, but this does not justify a refund. In many hotels free WI-FI is offered - the speed and stability of the Internet connection varies. The varying Internet connection does not justify a refund.

Have you booked a room with extra beds, and the extra beds are not used, the hotel as well as the organizer has the right to change the room without notice before arrival. Have you, for example, booked a double room with extra bed, but only 2 persons will stay in the room, the Organiser may change the room to a double room. Would you like to have an extra bed in the room, this must be booked and paid for.

Purchase of holiday

The booking of a holiday with Alpeffect Hotels must be made by mail or phone. Both are seen as a holiday contract and are therefore binding. The scope of the contractual services is given in the booking confirmation.

COVID-19

If the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of your home country issues a complete travel ban (for vaccinated, Covid-19 recovered and non-vaccinated persons) and forbids to enter Austria or if the borders to Austria are closed, you will get your money back.

Covid-19 safety insurance

In order to better adapt to the world in which we now live, we have developed a unique insurance for you, for our guests who dream of a summer or winter holiday in Austria and want to travel carefree.
