SUBJECT
These General Terms and Conditions of Use shall govern relations between Internet users and Cityzenbooking with respect to the use of the www.cityzenbooking.com website hereinafter referred to as "the Website". Any Internet user who accesses the Website shall agree to be bound by the General Terms and Conditions of Use which they must have read and understood.
However, THE GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE SHALL NOT IN ANY WAY GOVERN RELATIONS BETWEEN THE RESIDENTIAL HOTEL AND THE INTERNET USER WHO SUBSCRIBES TO AN ONLINE BOOKING OFFER and Cityzenbooking remains a stranger to any consequences that may result from the total or partial failure in carrying out the booking: the relationship between the Internet user who books online and any residential hotel is governed by the specific conditions of this relationship.
Cityzenbooking hereby calls on Internet users to verify systematically before every booking all the contractual conditions applied by the residential hotels where they book and particularly the modification and cancellation conditions which vary from one residence to another.
APPLICABLE LAW
Every transaction between Cityzenbooking and any Internet user and, particularly, the General Terms and Conditions of Use shall be governed by the French law.
ONLY FRENCH JURISDICTIONS AND PARIS COURTS SHALL BE COMPETENT IN CASE OF DISPUTE THAT REQUIRES THE INTERPRETATION AND / OR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE NOTWITHSTANDING THE MULTIPLICITY OF DEFENDERS AND GUARANTEES, BOTH FOR EMERGENCY PROCEDURES AND PROTECTIVE MEASURES BY PETITION OR BY SUMMARY.
In case of dispute, only the French version shall be considered.
CITYZENBOOKING'S ROLE
The website's sole objective is to ease relations between Internet users with residential hotels who personally display, present and propose their offers on the Website.
Each residential hotel shall have to describe its own offers with respect to availability and the services it proposes. Cityzenbooking shall have nothing to do with the rates proposed by the hotel apartments on the website or with payment for lodging.
Payment for lodging is done directly at the residential hotel upon arrival and on the spot, exceptions reported when booking.
Cityzenbooking does not charge anything for booking and does not require the Internet user to pay anything.
The Internet user's credit card number which is requested by the residential hotel during booking on the website is only for guarantee of payment, exceptions reported when booking (eg. insurance or special rates). Only the residential hotel can debit it for lodging fees or, if need be, booking cancellation fees as spelt out by the contractual conditons.
The booking system used is secure.
Cityzenbooking hereby informs Internet users that for some special offers of hotel apartments, the residential hotel reserves the right to carry out a pre-authorization of your bank card or deduct a certain amount (at times possible of reimbursement) from this same card during booking or confirmation of booking. Before carrying out booking, carefully check the description of apartments to understand such conditions.
As a result Cityzenbooking shall not be held responsible on the basis of the offers or of all or part of the description thereof that features on the Website.
