Check-in

• Standard check-in time is 2:00pm but times may vary. 
• If you wish to guarantee your ability to check-in prior to 2:00pm you must book an additional night’s stay for the night immediately preceding your stay and pay the applicable rate for that additional night. 

Check-out: standard 

Standard check-out time is 10:00am but times may vary from time to time and you should confirm the check-out time with us prior to your scheduled check-out day. 

Late check-out 

• If you wish to check-out later than the standard check-out time you must obtain approval from us at least 12 hours prior to your scheduled check-out time or book an additional night’s stay for your current room or suite for the date you are scheduled to check-out.  Late check-out or an additional night’s stay is subject to room/suite availability, and is not guaranteed. 
• We may approve a request for late check-out in our absolute discretion. 
• If you check-out after 10:00am the following additional charges may be applied to your account and will be payable by you on check-out: 
• a surcharge as advised on arrival or during your stay, based on booking and room/suite type, for every hour after 10:00am that you fail to check-out will be payable; or  
• if you check-out after 3pm a charge equivalent to the full daily rate which applies to your booking. 

• You must provide a credit card authorisation or imprint when you check in. 
• This authorisation may be used to cover incidental items including but not limited to telephone charges, security bond or deposit for any breakages or damage incurred during your stay, or cleaning charges in excess of the normal level of cleaning. 
• The pre-authorisation process validates your credit card and protects both the cardholder and merchant from increasing fraud incidents. The pre-authorisation security deposit required are:
  • One night stay : $300.00 per room 
  • More than one night stay : $500.00 per room per stay  
  • The pre-authorised amount is set aside by the card issuer for a period of up to 14 days from the date of pre-authorisation and the pre-authorisation will affect your available fund's balance or spending limit. For more information on this practice please contact your card issuer. 
  • Once a pre-authorisation has been made, we cannot release, remove or lower the authorised amount until we process the final account on departure. This is a restriction imposed by the card issuer, and cannot be negotiated. 
  • Where a credit card is not available a minimum $300 per room and $500 per room for more than one night cash deposit will be required on check-in.
