AMICABLE SETTLEMENT

In the event of a dispute, the parties agree to seek an amicable solution before initiating any legal proceedings. Guests are encouraged to first contact Hôtel du Temps’ customer service department in order to attempt to resolve the matter.

All claims or disputes must be submitted in writing to Hôtel du Temps or by email to reservation@hoteldutemps.com. The notification must include full details of the dispute, including relevant dates and circumstances.

 

CONSUMER MEDIATION

In accordance with the provisions of the Consumer Code, guests may refer, free of charge, to a consumer mediator for the amicable resolution of any dispute with Hôtel du Temps.

Hôtel du Temps is affiliated with the mediation service of the Association des Médiateurs Européens (AME), located at 197 boulevard Saint-Germain, 75007 Paris.
The designated mediator is Ms. Angela Albert.

Failing prior amicable resolution, guests may submit their case electronically via the following website:

EUROPEAN ONLINE DISPUTE RESOLUTION (ODR) PLATFORM

In accordance with Article L.616-2 of the Consumer Code, guests are informed of the existence of the European Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform, accessible at:
https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr

 

RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL

Pursuant to Article L.221-28 of the Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal does not apply to accommodation services provided on a specific date or during a specified period.

Consequently, pursuant to Article L.221-28 of the Consumer Code, guests do not benefit from the right of withdrawal provided for in Article L.221-18 of the Consumer Code, given the nature of the services supplied.

The contract is therefore deemed to be definitively concluded once the guest places the reservation in accordance with these General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

 

GOVERNING JURISDICTION

In the event of a dispute not resolved amicably or through mediation, the consumer guest may bring the matter, at their choice, before one of the courts having territorial jurisdiction under the Code of Civil Procedure, or before the court of the place where the guest resided at the time of contract conclusion or where the harmful event occurred, in accordance with Article R.631-3 of the Consumer Code.
