Terms and conditions of sale
1. Payment
Payment for the reservation can be made by credit card or any other method of payment accepted by the Hôtel du Cheval Blanc. The credit card used for the reservation must be presented at the reception desk, along with proof of identity, upon check-in.
The credit card is used solely to guarantee the reservation and will not be charged immediately, except in the following cases:
If the card’s expiration date is earlier than the arrival date.
If the reservation is made as part of a prepaid, non-modifiable, and non-cancellable offer. In this case, the total amount of the stay will be charged upon confirmation of the reservation.
The Hotel also reserves the right to pre-authorize the credit card prior to arrival, which may result in a temporary hold on funds in the bank account.
