Terms & Conditions
*These Terms & Conditions apply to Short and Mid-Term Lets. Longer Lets are subject to contract and length of rental.*
These are our own general Terms & Conditions, which covers general payment and booking terms.
Prices & Payment
The prices of apartments will be quoted in UK Pounds, US Dollars and Euros and will include all taxes and services except telephone usage. Payments must be made in UK Pounds Sterling. Rates are based on nightly and/or seven-night stay, however the apartments can be pro-rated for shorter and longer stays. Prices may be subject to currency fluctuation, however, when accommodation has been paid in full, there will be no increase. All bookings must be paid in full no later than one month prior to arrival. If booking is made less than 30 days prior to arrival, we require full payment when booking. Payments can be made via wire / swift transfer, cheque (UK Pounds Sterling), or by credit card. Credit cards are subject to a 2.5% - 3.5% processing fee, depending on card.
Deposits & Final Payment
On making a booking, guests are required to pay a deposit (which is part of the total rent) to secure the apartment. The deposit may vary depending on the actual reservation. The balance is due and payable no later than one month prior to arrival and will be automatically debited if a credit card is provided for payment.
As the policies vary from Apartment Providers, guests are provided with the applicable Terms & Conditions of the Apartment Provider.
An additional security deposit may be required for some apartments, for protection against unforeseen damage to the property and/or its contents, and to cover telephone charges, as well as any extra charges. Security Deposits, if applicable, will be taken by the Apartment Provider at time of guest arrival, usually with a credit card imprint.
Arrival / Departure Times
Check-in time is usually 2:00pm with check-out time around 11:00am. Should guests require an early or immediate check-in on arrival, it is recommended that reservations are made from the previous night, or to store luggage at building until apartments are ready.
Key Collection
Key collection varies from apartment to apartment. We require guest arrival and departure details, in order to advise the Apartment Provider of when to expect guests.
Confirmations
A confirmation is automatically emailed or faxed upon receipt of the deposit and credit card details. In most cases a final confirmation is sent after the balance payment is taken. The booking cannot be guaranteed until payment of deposit has been received.
Cancellations / Amendments
If you want to cancel your booking, you must do so in writing. Cancellations made directly with apartments will not be effective. We cannot guarantee that any requests for amendments or changes in dates will be satisfied. However, if you wish to make any alteration to your booking (including the transfer of your booking to another person) after it has been accepted by us, we will try to accommodate your requirements, subject to availability and payment by you of an alteration fee, in the amount of £15.00 per booking. Any alteration made within 28 days of arrival will be treated as a cancellation and you will have to pay the charges set out below.
In the event of cancellation after your booking has been accepted by us, then we impose the following charges:
Outside 29 days prior to arrival: one weeks equivalent rental will be forfeited. If however, the cancellation is received by us within 29 days to the date of arrival, no refund will be made.
No refund will be made for the unused portion of your stay or for non-arrival which is classified as a NO SHOW.
In the very unlikely event that the apartment owner cannot provide the booked accommodation, the client understands that the apartment owner's responsibility is to find an alternative of at least a similar standard, and provide transportation as appropriate to this alternative apartment. London Choice Studios® takes every precaution to ensure apartments are professionally managed so that any such occurrence is extremely rare. London Choice Studios® shall have no liability in respect of any other costs, losses or damages existing out of or in connection with relocation of accommodation since such relocation is outside London Choice Studios®'s control.
