Article I
Contractual Relationship

The contractual relationship between the Accommodation Provider and the Client is governed hereby, by the relevant Accommodation Contract concluded between the Accommodation Provider and the Client and, in matters not expressly addressed herein, by the relevant provisions of the Civil Code and other pertinent legal regulations. Provisions deviating herefrom can be agreed in a separately concluded contract. Such deviating provisions in a separately concluded contract take precedence over the provisions hereof. The various arrangements contained in the Accommodation Contract take precedence over the provisions hereof. The Accommodation Provider reserves the right to state in its offers other terms and conditions that take precedence over these GBTC. These GBTC may be unliterally amended – fully and without limitations – by the Accommodation Provider in electronic form. This provision is without prejudice to the rights and obligations arising while the previous version of the GBTC is valid and effective. Should the GBTC be amended, the new version will be placed on the Accommodation Provider’s website www.amenity.cz and immediately sent to the Client with whom the Booking process underway. The amendment of these GBTC shall take effect at the moment of its publication or delivery to the Client. Should the Client not be in agreement with the published amendment, the Client shall notify the Accommodation Provider of this fact in writing no later than two days after the delivery of the amended GBTC.
Article II
Procedure for Booking and Concluding an Accommodation Contract
2.1 The Accommodation Provider offers accommodation and other related services (the “Accommodation”) to interested parties through its website www.amenity.cz and through approved agents (the “Offer”). The Offer is binding under the conditions and for the period specified therein, with the Accommodation Provider reserving the right to unilaterally change or specify the conditions of the respective Offer. For the purposes of concluding an Accommodation Contract, the decisive status of the Offer is the moment when the Client books the Accommodation through the Accommodation Provider’s booking system.
2.2 Booking of Accommodation
Accommodation is booked via an electronic booking form found on the Accommodation Provider‘s website www.amenity.cz or in some other way agreed individually with the Accommodation Provider. The booking system offers several options for booking the Accommodation, and these differ according to the time of booking the Accommodation, method of payment, price of the Accommodation and payment and cancellation conditions. These options are: (a) Advance Payment, (b) Non-Refundable Booking, (c) Early Booking, and (d) Deposit Payment (see Article III hereof).
The Client enters his basic Accommodation requirements on the Accommodation Provider’s website www.amenity.cz (arrival date, departure date, number of people and their status), accesses the Accommodation Provider’s booking system by clicking on the “Book” field, and then selects the booking method for the required type of Accommodation. Next, he fills in the information in the booking form completely and truthfully (including ID number and VAT number and a request for the issuance of a tax document, if this is required by the Client, in the comment field of the form), and then checks the appropriate box confirming that he has read and agrees with these GBTC and the Principles of Personal Data Processing (which are available to the Client by clicking on the hyperlink in the name). The same applies to the possible dispatch of commercial messages to the Client by electronic means in accordance with Act No. 480/2004 Coll. and the processing of personal data for these purposes (the “Booking”). The Client is sufficiently informed of the existence of the GBTC and the Principles of Personal Data Processing and their wording before the actual execution of the Booking and has the opportunity to become familiarised with them. The Client will not be allowed to complete the Booking without expressing his consent to the GBTC and the Principles of Personal Data Processing. The GBTC and the Principles of Personal Data Processing form an integral part of the contract.
Before sending the Booking, the Client has the opportunity to check the accuracy and completeness of the data in the Booking form. The information stated in the sent Booking are considered correct and binding, with it not being possible to make any additional changes after the Booking is sent via the booking form. Should the Client need to make any changes, he must contact the reception of the relevant resort where the Accommodation is to be provided. The Client shall send the Booking by clicking on the field “Confirm Booking”.
By sending the Booking to the Accommodation Provider, the Client confirms that he has fully familiarised himself with these GBTC, agrees with them and acknowledges them as conditions and an integral part of the Accommodation Contract.
By sending the Booking, the Client expresses a binding interest in concluding an Accommodation Contract.
After sending the Booking, the Client – in the case of the Advance Payment, Non-Refundable Booking (except for payment by cryptocurrency) and Early Booking options – is redirected to the payment gateway (see Article III hereof) and through it pays the price of the Accommodation, with the Client following the instructions appearing on the web interface when executing payment. In the case of the Deposit Payment and Non-Refundable Booking/payment by cryptocurrency options, the Client will, immediately after sending the Booking, receive on the e-mail address he specified in the Booking a message from the Accommodation Provider containing payment instructions. Upon payment being executed successfully, the Client will always receive a confirmation of the Booking containing a summary of the Booking and confirmation of the payment.
2.3 Conclusion of an Accommodation Contract
An Accommodation Contract concluded between the Client and the Accommodation Provider, the subject of which is the provision of accommodation according to the Booking and/or by way of an agreement with the Accommodation Provider when arranging Accommodation on the Arrival Date at the reception of the resort where the client requires Accommodation (the “Conclusion of an Accommodation Contract at the Resort Reception”), shall be concluded in accordance with the laws of the Czech Republic, particularly with Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code, as amended (the “Accommodation Contract”). If the Client is a natural person who acts outside the scope of his business or profession, the Accommodation Contract, in matters not regulated hereby, shall also be governed by Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection, as amended. The Accommodation Contract and these GBTC shall be drawn up in Czech. The Purchase Agreement may be concluded only in Czech unless the Client and the Accommodation Provider agree otherwise. In such a case, in the event of discrepancy between the two language versions of the Accommodation Contract, the Czech version shall prevail. The concluded Accommodation Contract shall be archived in electronic form at the Accommodation Provider, who will allow the Client access to it.
The Client agrees to the use of distance communication means to conclude the Accommodation Contract. The costs incurred by the Client by using distance communication means to conclude the Accommodation Contract do not differ from the basic rate charge by the provider of means of distance communication and shall be borne exclusively by the Client. The costs associated with the payment of the price of the Accommodation shall be borne by the Seller with the possible exception of the special means of payment selected by the Client.
The Client shall pay the Accommodation Provider the price of the Accommodation specified in the Booking in the manner and under the payment conditions specified herein (see this point 2.3.1 and Article VI hereof).

2.4 If there are errors in writing or counting (especially an obviously unreasonable price of accommodation and/or services) or other errors or discrepancies in the Offer, Booking and/or Booking Confirmation, the Accommodation Provider reserves the right to correct these errors or discrepancies itself or on the basis of a written request from the Client.
