In addition, the following applies:

General Terms and Conditions
for the use of the Lodgit Online Booking System by guests

effective as of 07/31/2024

1. Scope

These general terms and conditions are in effect for self-bookings via the Lodgit online booking system, which can either be accessed through Lodgit.com or through lodging establishments' websites in which the system has been integrated.

2. Contractual relationship with the operator of the Lodgit online booking system

a) The provider of the Lodgit online booking system is the company named Lodgit Hotelsoftware GmbH, Barfußgäßchen 12, D-04109 Leipzig, Germany. Further provider data: VAT ID number DE180664615, telephone +49 341 420 6944, fax +49 341 4783 9020, CEO Herbert Stegfellner, German Commercial Register: Amtsgericht Leipzig HRB 30141. There are no agencies in other member countries of the EU or elsewhere in the world.

b) Lodgit offers you, the guest, the opportunity to book (travel-related) services from third parties through the Lodgit online booking system. Lodgit offers no own services directly relevant to travel and accommodation. Upon effectuating a booking, the only arising contractual relationship is hence a brokerage agreement upon which the provision contained within Article 651a et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB) do not apply.

3. Booking
a) Each booking is forwarded to the respective lodging establishment as a communicating messenger in your name.

b) The brokerage carried out by the Lodgit online booking system is free of charge for the guest. The resale of accommodations booked through the Lodgit online booking system is hence prohibited. Furthermore, the further brokerage of contingents of accommodation to third parties and at higher prices than those offered through the Lodgit online booking system also forbidden. Lodgit reserves the right to disable customer access in case of transgression. The cession or sale of the claim against the lodging establishment is unacceptable. The lodging establishment is entitled in such a case to cancel the booking, especially if the guest supplied fallacious information concerning the type of the booking or payment when ceding or selling to the third party.

4. Contract and payment
a) The contract governing the respective service is immediately enabled between you and the lodging establishment of your choice upon carrying out the booking. The price for the accommodation and additional services, as the case may be, which is confirmed in the Lodgit online booking system is to be paid directly to the lodging establishment. The special payment methods that may be offered in the Lodgit online booking system such as PayPal or Moneybookers directly forward the payment to the lodging establishment, should the latter have concluded a separate agreement with these payment processors. All claims and duties arising from the accommodation contract, especially any claims and duties provided by Article 651a et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB), exist directly and exclusively between the booker and the chosen lodging establishment.

b) The reservation of the accommodation comes into effect upon booking and is valid without booking confirmation. The booking confirmation appears on screen and can be printed. It is also transmitted to the customer by email. Due to technical uncertainties however, Lodgit is not in a position to verify the delivery of the email confirmation. This does not affect the validity of the booking.

5. Booking guarantee
a) The booking guarantee will be maintained in effect by the lodging establishment until the day of arrival as well as through to entire following night. In case of a cancellation past the deadline or non-appearance by the guest on the date of arrival agreed upon, the lodging establishment is entitled to the billing of the accommodation costs. Further cancellation conditions are also contained within the establishment's terms and conditions, which are displayed to you along with the present terms and conditions.

b) For package deals and prices attached to specific conditions, the lodging establishment's cancellation conditions are in effect; services from third parties that may be part of the package deal (e.g. tickets for shows) can no longer be cancelled free of charge.

6. Modifications and cancellation
a) In order to avoid misunderstandings, all applications for modifications or cancellations on the part of the customer shall be directly addressed to the lodging establishment. The decisive criterion for the punctual modification or cancellation is the receipt of the request by the respective lodging establishment.

b) In the case of a timely cancellation, you will receive a confirmation of cancellation from the respective lodging establishment. In the case of a cancellation past the deadline, the customer will receive a notification by the lodging establishment, whether a cancellation is still possible or not. The establishment then decides how high a cancellation fee it will charge. In the case of premature departure of the premises, the lodging establishment is entitled to charge for losses that it may have incurred.

7. Establishment ranking and data
The internationally widespread star ranking offers a nonbinding indication of the lodging establishment's standards. The star ranking displayed here originates from the lodging establishment's self evaluation, which may be verified by the Lodgit online booking system according to its own evaluation system, as well as reviews collected from guests. Additional data and descriptions of the lodging establishment originate from information supplied by their operator.

8. Contractual agreement on unit prices
a) All prices of the Lodgit online booking system represent the unit prices agreed upon in contract and are in effect for all bookings carried out through the Lodgit online booking system.

b) The booking is carried out to the respective current day price available for the selected data in the Lodgit online booking system. Available last minute, seasonal, weekend or otherwise special prices are calculated automatically upon booking. The binding unit prices are guaranteed by the lodging establishments for each booking.

c) Varying price units may be given for the accommodations offered in the Lodgit online booking system. These may be calculated per unit, per night or per week and a may depend in part on the number of guests (such as in the case of holiday apartments). Furthermore, the prices may include some additional services such as breakfast, but extras can also be booked along manually. The lodging establishments are required by law and by the operator of the Lodgit online booking system to display the respective total price including taxes. The price displayed however is provided solely by the renting lodging establishment. Please notify us in case of discrepancies. Taxes and other levies due on the prices from foreign lodging establishments are calculated depending on the respective local conditions. The prices for lodging establishments located in Germany always include the statutory value added tax.

9. Privacy policy
The information supplied by the customer will be electronically processed by the Lodgit online booking system. This information will all only be passed on within the scope of the necessary handling required for booking. Any other sharing of information will only happen as long as the customer has given permission to do so.

Lodgit will not share your information with any third party or otherwise use it without your explicit consent.
