General Rules
2.1. These General Terms and Conditions regulate the terms and conditions of using the accommodation facilities of the Service Provider and the related services.
2.2. These General Terms and Conditions contain those terms and provisions governing the legal relationship between the Parties in respect of which the Parties have not agreed otherwise in an individual contract or other agreement.

Contracting Party
3.1. The services provided by the Service Provider are used by the Guest.
3.2. In the event that an order for services is placed directly with the Service Provider, the Guest is qualified as the Contracting Party. The Service Provider and the Guest jointly - if the terms and conditions are met - become Contracting Parties (hereinafter Parties).

The Service Provider shall always determine the option period depending on the available room capacity.

In the case of an offer containing an obviously incorrect price (Section 6.7), no obligation to honour the offer shall arise.
4.2. The Contract is concluded by the written confirmation sent by the Service Provider and shall therefore qualify as a Contract concluded in writing.

Rates
6.1. The Service Provider applies dynamic pricing based on demand. Regarding the Guest’s hotel stay, the terms and conditions made known to and accepted by the Guest at the time of booking, as well as the content recorded in the confirmation, shall prevail. For Guests without a prior reservation, or Guests wishing to extend the duration of their stay on site, the room rates applicable shall be the current rates published on ensanahotels.com less any individual discounts.

6.3. When communicating prices, the Service Provider shall indicate whether the price quoted includes taxes at the rate specified by the applicable Hungarian legal regulations (VAT, local tax) or not.
6.4. Current discounts, promotions and other offers are published on ensanahotels.com.
6.5. The indicated prices do not include insurance. The Service Provider recommends that the Guest arrange cancellation, accident and health insurance personally; the Service Provider assumes no liability for any damage arising from the failure to do so.
6.6. Discounts applicable to children may vary by hotel; the specific prices are available on the page of the relevant offer. In the case of booking products subject to special conditions, event bookings, or bookings of more than 5 rooms (group bookings), the Service Provider may determine different conditions or surcharges set out in an individual Contract.
6.7. Obviously incorrect prices: Despite all due care taken by the Service Provider, it may occur that prices displayed on the website or other online interfaces of the Service Provider are obviously incorrect and significantly differ from the usual market price (for example, due to a technical error, data processing error or exchange-rate handling error). In the event of confirmation at such an obviously incorrect price, the Service Provider shall not be obliged to fulfil the booking at the incorrect price, but shall be entitled to communicate the correct price, based on which the Guest may decide whether to maintain the booking. If the Guest does not accept performance at the correct price, the Service Provider shall be entitled to cancel the booking and notify the Guest without delay..
Payment Terms, guarantee
7.1. The Service Provider shall be entitled to receive payment for the services provided to the Contracting Party no later than after the use of the services and before departure from the hotel, but may allow subsequent payment under an individual agreement.
7.2. In order to guarantee the use of the service in accordance with the Contract and payment of the consideration, the Service Provider may:
a) request payment of an advance payment for part or all of the service fee,
b) request advance payment or, at the Guest’s choice, a credit card guarantee, in the course of which the value of the ordered and confirmed service is blocked on the credit card.
7.3. The Contracting Party may settle the invoice in the following currencies:
Hungary: The invoice shall in all cases be issued in Hungarian forints in accordance with Hungarian tax rules. The price of services determined in EUR may be converted at the daily exchange rate recorded by the Service Provider on the day of the Guest’s arrival. Cash is accepted only in the following currencies: HUF, EUR and USD. In addition to cash payment, the Service Provider accepts advance bank transfer, bank cards indicated by the Service Provider as accepted, SZÉP card and vouchers.
7.4. Any costs related to the use of any payment method shall be borne by the Contracting Party.
7.5. At the Guest’s request, the Service Provider issues the invoice electronically and sends it to the email address provided by the Guest.
7.6. If the room rates and other service fees determined by the Service Provider are determined or displayed in euro, the service fee shall be converted into HUF at the daily exchange rate recorded by the Service Provider on the day of the Guest’s arrival, and the charge shall in all cases be made in HUF. In the case of advance payment, the amount of the advance payment shall be determined on the basis of the exchange rate applicable on the day of payment of the advance payment.
As a result, an exchange-rate difference may arise between the price determined in EUR and the amount actually settled in HUF due to the applied exchange rate and changes therein. Such difference shall not qualify as a separate fee or surcharge charged by the Service Provider, but as a settlement difference arising from the exchange-rate change between EUR and HUF and the applied conversion rate.
7.7. The Guest shall provide the Service Provider with the invoicing data required for issuing the invoice, in particular the billing name and address and, if necessary, the tax number, no later than upon check-in. The invoice shall be issued on the basis of the data provided by the Guest. After check-out, invoicing data may not be modified.

In the absence of presentation of the document, the Service Provider shall refuse to provide the accommodation service.
In the case of Guests under the age of 14, the Service Provider may also record the data on the basis of the declaration of their representative (e.g. parent or guardian).

11.2. The Service Provider shall be obliged to:

The Guest shall not be entitled to compensation if any ancillary service not affecting the basic use of the accommodation or restaurant service — including, in particular but not exclusively, wellness, sauna, fitness or other leisure services — is temporarily suspended for technical, safety, health or operational reasons, provided that the Service Provider is able to provide the main services ordered.

The Guest’s liability shall also apply if the injured party claims or is entitled to claim compensation for its damage directly from the Service Provider.
Rights of the Service Provider
In Hungary: In the event that the Guest fails to meet his/her fee payment obligation related to the used services, or contractually ordered but not used services that carry a penalty, the Service Provider - to ensure the claim is met - has a right of pledge on the personal belongings the Guest has brought to the hotel.
Obligations of the Service Provider
The Service Provider shall:
a) provide the accommodation and other services ordered under the Contract in accordance with the applicable regulations and service standards;
b) examine the Guest’s complaint taking into account Section 13.3, take measures reasonably expected in the given situation to remedy the complaint, and record the complaint, its investigation and the measures taken in writing.
Compensation Liability of the Service Provider
18.1. The Service Provider shall be liable for all damage suffered by the Guest that occurs within its facilities in causal connection with the culpable conduct of the Service Provider or its employees.
18.1.1. The Service Provider’s liability shall not extend to damage events caused by an unavoidable cause beyond the control of the Service Provider’s employees and guests, or caused by the Guest personally.

18.4. In the case of restaurants, cafés, baths, wellness areas, event venues and cloakrooms operated by the Service Provider, the rules of hotel liability shall apply to the Service Provider’s liability with the deviation that the Service Provider’s liability extends to property that guests usually take with them when using the given service. If the Service Provider designates or provides a suitable place for safekeeping of property, the Service Provider shall be liable for damage to assets placed there.
18.5. The Service Provider assumes no liability for assets, cash or valuables left unattended in the premises referred to in Section 18.4, or in other hotel premises open to the public, or in rooms.
18.6. The Service Provider assumes no liability for vehicles.
Data Processing
The Service Provider shall proceed as specified in the Privacy Notice.
Force Majeure
In the event of any reason or circumstance beyond the control of the affected party that hinders or makes impossible the performance of its obligations arising from the Contract — including in particular war, fire, flood, extreme weather event, power outage or other public utility service outage, epidemic, state of danger or authority measure — the affected party shall be released from the performance of its obligations arising from the Contract for as long as the impediment exists. The Parties undertake to make every effort to prevent, mitigate and remedy as soon as possible the damage and delays resulting from the occurrence of the force majeure event.
If the force majeure event only partially or temporarily hinders the performance of the Contract, it shall not automatically result in cancellation of the entire booking or termination of the Contract as a whole. In such case, the Parties shall cooperate in accordance with the circumstances and modify the booking and the performance of the services in proportion to the extent of the impediment. In particular, if a circumstance affecting the Guest’s travel — for example, cancellation or delay of a flight — prevents only the use of part of the stay, this alone shall not justify cancellation of the entire booking without legal consequences.
Jurisdiction, Governing Law
The legal relationship between the Service Provider and the Contracting Party shall be governed by the local law (Hungarian law). In any legal dispute arising from the service contract, the court is authorised at the location where the services are provided and declared to have competence to handle the issue. Jurisdiction is in the place where the service was rendered.
