General Terms & Conditions
General terms and conditions below apply to all reservations made at HUONE Copenhagen, unless explicitly agreed otherwise. HUONE reserves a right to apply special terms and conditions that differ from these terms in case of additional services or special events require so. You are responsible for informing your guests of these terms, especially Section 4 ‘Guest Code of Conduct’.
1. Reservations and confirmation
Provisional reservations can be made by telephone, live-chat, e-mail or via the online reservation system. When submitting the reservation, you are required to provide the necessary personal details of you, in addition to information of the event you are organising.
If you are submitting any personal data of guests or any material (such as text, guest emails or pictures) to HUONE, you are responsible that the submitted information or material does not breach any third-party intellectual property or privacy rights.
An event reservation is binding once it has been confirmed in writing by HUONE or you have confirmed the quotation sent by HUONE. Advance payment, reservation fee or credit card guarantee may be required by HUONE depending on local practice in order to secure a reservation.
If you wish to amend your reservation, HUONE will use reasonable endeavours to comply with your request, however we cannot guarantee that amendments can be made.
The reservation cannot be assigned to a third party without HUONE’s written approval.
2. Payment
Prepayment:
To secure your booking, unless separately agreed otherwise, a prepayment of the total quotation amount is required. The prepayment invoice must be paid within 10 days from the date of the invoice.
For events with a total quotation amount exceeding 40,000kr, the customer is required to make a prepayment of 50% of the total quotation amount to secure the booking. The prepayment invoice must be paid within 10 days from the date of the invoice.
Additionally, the remaining 50% of the prepayment is to be settled no later than 7 days before the event date. Both invoices will be sent upon booking confirmation. Failure to make the second prepayment of 50% within the specified timeframe may result in the cancellation of the booking, as outlined in our cancellation policy.
Final Payment and Adjustments:
An additional debit/credit invoice will be sent after the event to address any differences in the final billable amount. If there are any discrepancies or additional charges, they will be detailed in this invoice.
For possible refunds due to overpayment or adjustments, we kindly request you to provide us with your bank account details. Alternatively, should you prefer, we can retain the amount as a credit to offset against future events you book with us.
VAT Implications:
As per Danish law, VAT is applicable at the time of payment. Therefore, the VAT for the deposit will be due upon payment of the deposit, and the VAT for the final payment will be due upon settling the balance.
3. Cancellation
Cancellation Policy:
If you decide to cancel your booking:
- More than 6 weeks before the event, 100% of the prepayment will be refunded.
- 3-6 weeks before the event, 35% of the prepayment will be refunded.
- 1-3 weeks before the event, 10% of the prepayment will be refunded.
- Less than 1 week before the event, the deposit is non-refundable.
Kindly be aware that failure to make the prepayment within the specified timeframe may result in the cancellation of the booking, as outlined above in ‘Prepayment’.
Late Payments: Any late payments will be subject to a 5% late fee on the outstanding amount. If payment is not received by the due date, we reserve the right to release the booked date to other potential clients.
Modifications: Any modifications to your event details that result in a change to the quoted amount must be finalized and agreed upon no later than 7 days before the event. Additional costs may apply.
Force Majeure: In the event of circumstances beyond our control, such as natural disasters, pandemics, or government-imposed restrictions, we will work with you to reschedule your event or provide a refund as deemed appropriate.
By proceeding with the booking, you acknowledge and agree to the terms outlined above. We look forward to serving you and ensuring your event is a great success.
