Availability of our accommodation when making a booking request from our website

The availability of the requested accommodation when proceeding to the booking request on the European Snow Pride website is not guaranteed. The availability of the requested accommodation is guaranteed for 3 days from the reception by the customer of the reservation summary email sent by Tignes Reservation which contains a payment link.
If the amount corresponding to the payment of the deposit or the total amount (depending on the reservation period) is not received by Tignes Reservation within 3 days of sending their email, the reservation request will be deemed to have lapsed and the availability of the requested accommodation will no longer be guaranteed.

Reference rates for accommodation and options

The reference currency on our web site is the Euro. When booking you will be invoiced in Euro. Prices in Pound Sterling on our web site are for information only and are calculated on the basis of the following exchange rate: €1=£0.85.

The reference price for the European Snow Pride accommodation and options is the price displayed on the European Snow Pride website in either the accommodation or option description web page. In case of discrepancy between the price displayed on these description pages and the price that may appear at other locations or in any communication with the customer either through emails, phone calls, booking forms or summary, this is the price displayed on the accommodation or option description page on the European Snow Pride web site that prevails and that should be considered as the price to pay for booking this accommdation or option.

In the case of adding an Event Pass / lift pass to an existing reservation, at a date after the date of creation of the initial booking file, the price conditions that apply to the added Event Pass / ski pass are those valid at the time  the Event Pass/lift pass is added.

For DeLuxe Special Offer bookings or bookings with an accommodation in the residences CGH Nevada, CGH Ferme du Val Claret and CGH Jhana:

Regarding your accommodation:

A-For the 3 situations below related to the COVID 19 health crisis:

1. By government decision, the borders of the client’s country of residence are closed and will be closed on the dates of their stay, making it impossible for clients to travel to France.
2. The client lives in an area where a lockdown is in force and will still be in force on the dates of their stay.
3. Restrictive travel measures are imposed by the French authorities such as travel restrictions, or quarantine requirements for travellers coming from the client’s place of residence (to be applicable, quarantine must be mandatory – not applicable in case of voluntary quarantine). The restriction measures must always be in force until the day before the customer’s stay.

Tignes Reservation undertakes to offer the client a postponement to another date during the winter season 2022-23. When these measures are already in place for the date of the client’s stay, the client may make this this postponement up to 15 days before arrival. If a client does not manifest himself, it will be considered that the client has decided to come for his stay with full knowledge of the facts.

If one of the above situations occurs less than 15 days before arrival, Tignes Reservation will offer the client a postponement to another date during the 2022/2023 winter season.

B-The following situations are excluded and do not fall under the COVID flexibility:

– The airport of departure or destination is closed for health reasons,

– The means of transport chosen by the client to take him to his place of stay has been cancelled for any reason whatsoever.

– The ski area has taken the decision to unilaterally close its ski area partially or totally without a decision or decree from a French government authority.

C-In the event of a total closure of the ski area, to which the residence is attached, by an administrative measure emanating from the French national or regional authorities, the client will have the possibility of modify their reservation in another CGH establishment on the same date, or a stay on another date during the winter 2022/2023 at no extra cost or retention of the original booking. No cancellation without charge will be granted.

D-If a lockdown measure is decided to be applied during the stay, resulting in an interruption of the stay, Tignes Reservation will invoice the number of days of the stay on a pro rata basis.

Any interruption of the stay by the client because a travel restriction measure is in force after the initial end of the stay, will not give rise to a revision of the tariff and the stay will be invoiced at 100%.

If you have booked the the DeLuxe Special Offer, the participants sharing the same apartment must agree on a new date of stay according to the above conditions. In the absence of unanimity, the date of stay retained for the postponement is the date defined by a majority of participants sharing the same apartment. In the absence of a majority, the date of stay retained for the rescheduling will be drawn at random from the dates proposed by the participants sharing the same apartment. No refund of accommodation will be possible for those who do not accept the date of stay thus chosen.
