No cancellation fee shall apply in such circumstances. If other enquiries are received for the same dates of your proposed Event, we may contact you earlier for confirmation, at our sole discretion.
  1. RESERVATION METHOD (APPLICABLE FOR BEDROOM ONLY)

2.1. All the bedrooms provided for in your Room Block will be reserved for you upon signing and returning this agreement to us. Reservations may be made either directly by your attendees via the Internet using HiltonLink, our free tool that enables guests to book online (please visit http://www.hilton.com/GroupPage to create your HiltonLink page at least 7 days prior to when housing is scheduled to open); or via a rooming list. If you intend to use a rooming list, please contact your designated event manager and request an Excel template to create your rooming list.

2.2. Hilton offers direct download into many hotel reservation systems using RAPID! (Reservation Automated Processing Input and Delivery). Please contact your designated event manager to determine if RAPID! is available for your Event.

2.3. We reserve the right to charge an administrative charge for rooming lists that are received after the date noted above. If you fail to provide such rooming lists to us by such date, you may continue to hold the bedrooms by making advanced payment in full of the Total Room Block.

2.4. Your advance payments and deposits will be refunded by us to you within 30 days after completion of your Event if bedrooms you paid for in advance were later paid for by your attendees.

If you request that we provide you and/or your representative(s) with access to guest reservation information pertaining to your attendees who have reserved rooms at our Hotel as part of your Room Block, then you certify that you have already obtained, or will obtain, consent from each of your attendees for our Hotel or Hilton to provide to you and/or your representative(s) such attendee’s reservation information, and you further agree to reimburse us and Hilton for any costs, damages, fees or expenses of any kind arising from any claim(s) by an attendee relating to our or Hilton’s disclosure of any attendee’s reservation information to you and/or your representative(s).

  1. EARLY CHECK OUT FEE

3.1. In the event that an attendee who has requested a room within your Room Block checks out prior to the attendee’s reserved check-out date, we will charge an early check-out fee of the full length of stay. Attendees wishing to avoid an early check-out fee should advise us at or before check-in of any change in planned length of stay. We will inform attendees of the early check-out charge upon check-in and we request that you also inform your attendees of the charge.

3.2. Check-in time and check-out time are indicted on the Sell and Report Agreement. Early check-in and late check-out are subject to availability and approval by our Front Desk. If guests require access to rooms prior to the established check-in time, the rooms must be reserved for the previous evening at a negotiated rate. Our Front Desk can arrange to check baggage for those arriving early when rooms are unavailable. If late check-out is required, one-half the applicable rate per room will be charged until 6:00 p.m. For check-out after 6:00 p.m., a negotiated rate will apply. Attendees wishing to avoid a late check-out fee should advise us at check-in of any need for an extended check-out time.

  1. TERMS OF PAYMENT

4.1. As a condition for Hotel to accept your credit card as an approved form of payment for your master account charges, you agree to abide by the dispute resolution procedures described in this agreement below, which require that any disputes that you may wish to raise with respect to any master account charges must first be addressed directly by you and the Hotel, in which case the parties agree to work in good faith to resolve any such disputed invoices in a timely manner. For the avoidance of doubt, you agree that you will not avail yourself of your credit card issuer’s procedures for receiving a temporary credit for disputed charges arising from your credit card transactions with us (commonly referred to as a “chargeback”).

4.2. We reserve the right to check your credit status at any time before the commencement of the Event, and we reserve the right to increase the amount of deposits and/or pre-payments should there be a negative change in your financial status. You expressly consent to our conducting any such credit checks.

4.3. Accounts 30 days past due will be charged interest at a rate of 4% above the Westpac base rate (or any local base rate equivalent) per month or the maximum rate allowable under applicable law or regulation (whichever is lower). If any charges are disputed in good faith, then you agree to pay us all undisputed amounts within 30 days of invoice date. The parties will then agree to work in good faith to resolve the disputed invoiced charges in a timely manner, and you agree to pay the remainder immediately upon resolution of the dispute.
