Cancellation by you (Cancellation Conditions)
Please note that we will only charge a cancellation fee for confirmed reservations. If you cancel a confirmed reservation, you are subject to a cancellation fee. The general cancellation policy below applies to all reservations unless the hotel or wholesaler have different policies. It's compulsory & your duty (the traveller's) to be aware of any applicable cancellation charges at the time of booking. Please ask for cancellation policy and charges for that particular Hotel at the time of booking.
These policies will then take precedence over the general cancellation policy stated below.

Cancellations received less than 14 days before arrival - 15% of the total.
Cancellations received less than 7 days before arrival - 01night's accommodation charge.
There will always be an administrative charge of 10% of the total amount, if you cancel a reservation, in addition to the cancellation charge (if applicable).

Important to Cancellation Conditions
Different Hotels follow different cancellation policies and charges vary at different periods of the year. Especially during Christmas, New Year & high seasons, the cancellation charge is 100%, for cancellations within 30 days of arrival. So once again, please make sure you are aware of the cancellation charge for your particular reservation before you confirm & make payment with us.

Changes by you
If you want to make any change to your confirmed reservation please send us an-email with all details. Your requested Change will ONLY be valid, when you receive an e-mail confirming the change from World Hotel Deals. If the requested change of a confirmed booking is made during the cancellation period, it will be treated, at our discretion, as a cancellation. Please refer to Cancellation Conditions.

Failure to Check In At the Hotel & Early Check Outs
Failure to check in at the hotel as per confirmed booking (Hotel Voucher) will be treated as a late cancellation and cancellation conditions apply.
Similarly, if you need to shorten your stay and early checkout, we will try our best to refund the unused room nights UNLESS NOTIFIED OTHERWISE BY email.
Please inform us in advance and cancel the unwanted room nights, or else you will not receive the refund for the unused room nights.
