Cancellation & Refund Policy

Clear, Fair & Transparent Booking Terms at P I Holiday Inn

At P I Holiday Inn, we understand that travel plans can change due to personal, professional, or unexpected reasons. This Cancellation & Refund Policy is designed to be fair, transparent, and easy to understand, while also protecting the operational needs of a small, private holiday stay.

By confirming a booking with P I Holiday Inn, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

Importance of This Policy

As P I Holiday Inn operates with only three luxury rooms, last-minute cancellations can significantly impact availability and planning. This policy helps us:

  • Manage room availability responsibly
  • Offer fair opportunities to other guests
  • Maintain consistent service standards

We kindly request guests to read this policy carefully before confirming a booking.

Booking Confirmation & Advance Payments

A booking is considered confirmed only when:

  • Availability is confirmed by P I Holiday Inn
  • Any required advance payment is received
  • Booking details are acknowledged via phone, WhatsApp, or email

Advance payments, when requested, help secure the reservation and block the room exclusively for the guest.

Cancellation by the Guest

Standard Cancellation Policy

Cancellations made well in advance of the check-in date may be eligible for a refund or rescheduling, subject to availability and confirmation.

Cancellations made closer to the check-in date may not be eligible for a full refund due to limited room availability. The exact refund eligibility will be communicated clearly at the time of booking.

Short-Notice & Last-Minute Cancellations

For cancellations made at short notice:

  • Advance payments may be partially or fully non-refundable
  • Refund decisions depend on whether the room can be rebooked

This is necessary to compensate for blocked availability.

No-Show Policy

A no-show occurs when:

  • The guest does not arrive on the confirmed check-in date
  • No prior cancellation or communication is provided

In the event of a no-show:

  • The booking may be considered cancelled
  • Any advance payment may be non-refundable
  • The room may be released for other guests

Early Check-Out

If a guest decides to shorten their stay after check-in:

  • Refunds for unused nights are not guaranteed
  • Decisions are made based on booking conditions and availability

Guests are encouraged to inform us as early as possible if plans change.

Refund Processing

Refund Method

If a refund is approved:

  • Refunds will be processed using the original payment method, where possible
  • Alternative methods may be arranged if required

Refund Timeframe

  • Approved refunds may take 7–14 working days to process
  • Processing time may vary depending on banks or payment providers

Guests will be informed once the refund is initiated.

Booking Modifications & Date Changes

We understand that guests may need to change travel dates.

Date Change Requests:

  • Subject to availability
  • May be treated as a rescheduling rather than a cancellation
  • Rate differences may apply depending on season

Guests are encouraged to contact us early to explore flexible options.
