When you made a reservation with the hotel, you entered into a contract that states the hotel&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/e360hospitality.com\/hotel-glossary\/hotel-confirmation-letter\/\" title=\"\">cancelation policy<\/a>, which applies here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\" style=\"font-size:17px\">You can get a refund on a hotel room after checking in, if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"\">\n<li class=\"\">You haven&#8217;t made any transaction (such as a minibar purchase) that has been billed to your <a href=\"https:\/\/e360hospitality.com\/hotel-glossary\/hotel-folio-what-is-a-perfect-hotel-folio\/\" title=\"\">folio<\/a>. In this instance, you will have to go through a checkout process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">The hotel has provided a room that is not as advertised.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Force majeure &#8211; You must cancel your reservation immediately after check-in due to a situation that is out of your control, due to natural disaster forecasts, or unplanned events such as an announcement of a lockdown we experienced during COVID-19.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">For any other reasons, a refund is completely at the discretion of the hotel management.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Quick Link: <a href=\"https:\/\/e360hospitality.com\/hotel-glossary\/understanding_cancellation_policy\/\" title=\"\">Hotel Cancellation Policy &#8211; Complete Guide<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">However, suppose you refuse to take the room in unacceptable conditions and the hotel is unable to provide an alternative room or offer a free upgrade. In that case, the hotel is obliged to refund. Or, if it is due to an unforeseen situation you cannot continue with your stay, it is up to the hotel to decide to provide a full or a partial refund, if you talk to the front office manager. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Remember, for hotels, the loss is more than the guest who pays a penalty fee for last-minute cancelation.  The cancelations after check-in cost hotels more than canceling reserved bookings because of staff time, and stationery costs. Specifically, the hotel may have lost an opportunity to sell the room to a more profitable guest and ended up looking to fill the room at the eleventh hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.oracle.com\/cd\/E98457_01\/opera_5_6_core_help\/cancel_check_in.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">Canceling a checked-in guest<\/a> in Opera PMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"nfd-my-0 nfd-p-0 nfd-border-accent nfd-overflow-hidden wp-block-group alignwide\" style=\"border-radius:8px;border-top-width:8px\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"nfd-p-md wp-block-cover\" style=\"min-height:50px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-black-background-color has-background-dim-70 has-background-dim\"><\/span><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1487088678257-3a541e6e3922?ixlib=rb-4.0.3&amp;ixid=MnwxMjA3fDB8MHxwaG90by1wYWdlfHx8fGVufDB8fHx8&amp;auto=format&amp;fit=crop&amp;q=80&amp;w=1500&amp;h=&amp;crop=\" style=\"object-position:49% 51%\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" data-object-position=\"49% 51%\"\/><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-cover-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"nfd-container wp-block-group alignwide has-background-color has-text-color\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide is-content-justification-space-between is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-2 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"\" style=\"font-size:17px\">e360 Hospitality Solutions partners with hotel solutions providers and hotel systems vendors in operations training and PMS integrations.
