These Terms and Conditions shall apply exclusively to the "Experiences" section of this Website, without prejudice to the fact that the Hotel X Website has generic and independent Terms and Conditions that may be applicable.
For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, Consumer/User shall be understood to be any individual who, outside their commercial activity, business, trade or profession, accesses the Website with the intention of acquiring the products or services marketed through the same (hereinafter, the "User").
For any questions and/or complaints regarding the purchase of experiences, you may contact customer service at the following email address: info@hoteltreats.com or via the following telephone number: +34 871 51 00 40 (between 9:00 - 19:00 CEST).
2.- Acceptance of the Terms and Conditions
The purchase of any of the products or services marketed through the "Experiences" section of the Website requires the acceptance of these Terms and Conditions.
Hotel Hospes, in collaboration with HOTEL TREATS, reserves the right to modify these Terms and Conditions, and it is the User's responsibility to read, verify and understand these Terms and Conditions prior to acceptance and purchase of each of the vouchers or experiences.
By accepting these Terms and Conditions, the User declares to be over 18 years of age and to have the legal capacity to contract and purchase the products or services present on the Website.
3.- Purpose
This Website has been developed with the aim of offering Users the possibility of acquiring vouchers, for personal use or as a gift, in order to redeem them at Hotel Hospes and/or those establishments that Hotel Hospes predetermines (hereinafter, the "Service Provider"), and enjoy the specific experiences offered at the User's choice (hereinafter, the "Vouchers" or the "Voucher" indistinctly), with HOTEL TREATS being a mere intermediary between the User and the Service Provider acting as a point of contact between both parties and issuer of the required Vouchers.
4.- Vouchers
The Vouchers offered through the Website may be for personal enjoyment or as a gift, it being understood that, in the case of a "gift", the enjoyment of the experience will be for a third party other than the User who acquires the Voucher (the "Voucher Beneficiary ").
In the case of vouchers for personal enjoyment, the purchase is usually accompanied by an instant reservation, with the User knowing at all times the date on which he/she wishes to enjoy the experience at Hotel Hospes.
On the other hand, gift vouchers are usually purchased with an open date, i.e. at the time of issue, the day, time or other details of the service provision are still to be confirmed and, therefore, the User must confirm and manage directly with the Service Provider, Hotel Hospes, the confirmation of these details.
Unless expressly provided otherwise in the offer of the experience, vouchers purchased at Hotel Hospes cannot be exchanged for experiences at any other hotel.
5.- Operation of the Website and purchase of the Vouchers
In order to benefit from the Gift Certificates offered by Hotel Hospes through the Website, Users must comply with the following conditions.
Users may purchase the Gift Vouchers offered through the Website without registering or creating a user profile, simply by filling in the form provided for this purpose, which requests the necessary data to identify the User, issue the correspondent invoice, electronically deliver and pay for the services required, and select whether the Gift Voucher is for personal use or as a gift.
In the event that the Voucher purchased by the User is for personal use, there may be two options:
(i) Where the User proceeds to purchase a voucher with an open date of use, when he/she does not know the exact date on which he/she wishes to enjoy the experience. The validity of the voucher may vary, so the period of validity will be that indicated on the voucher itself and in the purchase order process. In this case, and prior to the use and enjoyment of the voucher, the User must contact Hotel Hospes to confirm the availability of dates to enjoy the selected experience.
The User shall have a period of fourteen (14) days to request the reimbursement of the Voucher for personal use with an open date if the Voucher has not been used during this period.
(ii) That the User makes a purchase or "Immediate Booking" of one of the Vouchers offered on the Website of Hotel Hospes for knowing the exact date on which he/she wishes to enjoy the experience, this type of Voucher not being refundable under any circumstances. However, the User may modify the date of enjoyment of the Voucher provided that he/she notifies this circumstance at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the date of enjoyment initially selected, which he/she shall inform the Service Provider. The modification will be always subject to the availability of Hotel Hospes.
If the voucher purchased by the User is for a gift with an open date, this will have the period of validity indicated at the time of purchase and on the voucher itself for its enjoyment, counting from the date of purchase of the voucher. However, each voucher will specify its period of validity, both on the Hotel Hospes website and on the voucher itself once received by the User, it being the responsibility of the User to verify the period of validity of the voucher purchased.
Once the voucher has been purchased, whether for personal use or as a gift, and as soon as possible, it will be sent via the contact method selected by the User/Buyer together with proof of the voucher purchased, which will be used to be exchanged for the experience selected at Hotel Hospes. In the case of gift vouchers, the voucher will be made available to the User/Buyer who may forward this information to the beneficiary or, where appropriate, provide HOTEL TREATS with the Beneficiary's email address for the direct sending of the voucher. Said Voucher shall not include the purchase price.
HOTEL TREATS provides an after-sales assistance service which the User may access by sending any doubt, query or request related to the Voucher purchased by sending an email to the following email address: info@hoteltreats.com or by calling the following telephone number +34 871 51 00 40 (between 9:00 and 19:00 CEST).
6.- Voucher Validity
The User acknowledges and accepts the validity of the Voucher purchased at all times, this information being available on the page of the specific product or Voucher, as well as being easily identifiable on the Voucher itself once it has been received via email.
Once the expiry date of the Voucher has been reached, it cannot be exchanged for the selected experience or any other of those offered through the Hotel Hospes Website. In this case, the amount paid by the User will be retained 100% by HOTEL TREATS or, if applicable, by Hotel Hospes.
7.- User behaviour on the Website
Users undertake to make lawful, diligent, honest and correct use of any information or content accessed through the Website, and all of this under the principles of good faith and respecting at all times the law in force and these Terms and Conditions. Hotel Hospes

8. Availability of the Voucher or Experiences
All Vouchers offered on the Website are subject to availability. Hotel Hospes, in collaboration with HOTEL TREATS, constantly and automatically updates the Website to ensure maximum correspondence and accuracy between the actual availability and the information available in this regard on the Website. However, HOTEL TREATS will not be responsible in any case for the non-correspondence taking into consideration that it is not the provider of the required service, being Hotel Hospes, the Service Provider.
It is recommended to make reservations or purchases of Vouchers at least two (2) weeks prior to the preferred date. If the User or Beneficiary wishes to book their experience for days of peak demand (such as weekends or holidays), they should book further in advance. The User must take into account that some experiences show dates of availability on the Website, however, these dates may only be indicative and are subject to change by Hotel Hospes as Service Provider. In this sense, it is recommended to check with Hotel Hospes the availability of the experience to be purchased.
All Vouchers or experiences may be discontinued or withdrawn from the Website at any time and without prior notice, without this decision affecting Users who have purchased the affected Vouchers prior to their withdrawal.
In the event that a User or Beneficiary wishes to use the Voucher for an experience that has been removed from the Website and the Service Provider does not accept bookings or the experience is no longer available, a solution will be offered, such as credit for the value of the Voucher (to be given to the Voucher Beneficiary), or an alternative experience of the same value (if available).
In such case, the credit offered will have the same maturity date as the original Voucher.
9. Vouchers price and payment method
The prices of the Vouchers that appear on the Website will be those reflected at all times on the Website and are inclusive of VAT.
Users can proceed to pay for the selected voucher using the payment methods enabled on the Website, which can be consulted at the time of proceeding with the purchase process.
All of them are subject to verifications and authorizations by the issuing entities of the means of payment (card issuers and/or payment account issuers) outside HOTEL TREATS, but if such entity does not authorize the payment, it will not be possible to continue with the purchase procedure initiated, and the order will be automatically cancelled, and the purchase and sale of the requested Voucher will be understood as not having been carried out.
By clicking on "Authorize payment" the User unequivocally confirms that the credit card is his/her property and HOTEL TREATS or, as the case may be, Hotel Hospes, is not responsible in any case for the fraudulent or illegal use of credit cards by third parties.
Furthermore, at no time during the purchase process can HOTEL TREATS or Hotel Hospes know or store the information related to the User's credit card, transmitted through a secure connection with encryption protocol directly to the site of the entity that manages the electronic payment.
Payments are processed by the payment gateway MangoPay (Mangopay S.A) or by the payment gateway of Hotel Hospes, as the Service Provider.
Before proceeding with the payment, the User must read and Accept Mangopay's Terms and Conditions: https://mangopay.com/terms/MANGOPAY_Terms-EN.pdf.
