§1 Scope of Application


These General Terms and Conditions apply to all agreements regarding the temporary accommodation (Beherbergungsvertrag) between Bed & Breakfast Ravelin (hereinafter referred to as "accommodation") and the guest. The agreement is subject exclusively to German law, in particular the Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch (BGB). Deviating conditions of the guest are only applicable if they have been explicitly confirmed in writing by Bed & Breakfast Ravelin.


§2 Conclusion of Contract


The contract comes into effect through confirmation of the reservation by email from Bed & Breakfast Ravelin. The main guest is liable for all obligations arising from the agreement, also on behalf of the guests he has registered.


§3 Services and Prices


Bed & Breakfast Ravelin makes the reserved room available for the agreed stay. The listed prices include the applicable VAT (Umsatzsteuer) and any local charges, unless otherwise stated.


The room prices do not include breakfast, dinner, BBQ, electric vehicle charging, or minibar, unless explicitly stated otherwise.


Breakfast, dinner, and BBQ are only available upon prior reservation due to procurement and preparation. Extra services will be billed separately if applicable.


§3.1 Meal take-away per person


Breakfast, dinner, and BBQ are only offered and charged per person.


It is not permitted to share meals between multiple people, regardless of age. Each guest using breakfast, dinner, or BBQ must reserve separately and pay the applicable rate.


If it is established that multiple people use one reserved meal, Bed & Breakfast Ravelin is entitled to charge the full regular rate for each additional person.


This provision applies to both adults and children.

In the event of late payment, Bed & Breakfast Ravelin is entitled to charge statutory interest in accordance with §288 BGB.


§5 Cancellation by the Guest


No statutory right of withdrawal exists for agreements on accommodation services (§312g (2) no. 9 BGB).


The guest can cancel the agreement in writing before the start of the stay. In the event of cancellation, the agreed accommodation price remains due in accordance with §537 BGB. Saved costs and any income from re-letting are not deducted.


For simplification, the following flat-rate regulation applies:


Up to 7 days before arrival: free of charge


Less than 7 days before arrival or No-Show: 100% of the accommodation price


§6 Cancellation by Bed & Breakfast Ravelin


Bed & Breakfast Ravelin is entitled to terminate the agreement if:


- Force majeure or circumstances beyond its control make performance impossible;

In the event of justified termination, there is no right to compensation for the guest.

The statutory liability for brought items conform §701 BGB remains unaffected.


Liability for indirect damage or consequential damage is excluded, unless otherwise provided by law.
