Faqs
You can book an apartment instantly and without hassle. After viewing the available apartments in your destination city and making your selection, you proceed to the booking stage. You are required to complete an online form and in order to book and reserve the dates that you have requested, you need to make a prepayment online. You can pay the prepayment with a credit card or via PayPal. When the prepayment process is fully completed, you will receive a booking confirmation email.
Please refer to the How to Book section on our website for more information.
Yes, it is safe to pay with your credit card. Our service for online credit card transactions is secure and ensures a safe online transaction and your details are protected against interception.
As soon as the prepayment process has been fully completed, you will receive a booking confirmation email, which is sent to the email address you will have provided on your online booking form. The booking conformation email contains information such as the contact details of your accommodation manager, the full address of the apartment and the payment breakdown.
The price of the apartment per night usually depends on the number of people sharing the accommodation. This ensures the best value for you, even if you have a small travel party in a larger apartment.
If the total number of people varies during your stay, you will still have to book for the highest number of people that will be staying in the apartment. E.g. If you book for four nights, wherein two nights there will be 4 people and the other two nights there are 3 people, you will still need to make the booking for 4 people.
You only pay for children ages 3 and over. When entering your number of people, to search for an apartment, please exclude infants and young children under 3 years old. Normally, there are cots or high chairs for babies and infants available.
If you wish to change or modify the number of guests or number of nights after you have made the booking, you need to let us know by email as soon as possible at info@chicroombarcelona.com. Please make sure to quote your booking reference number, which can be found on your booking confirmation email.
If you want to change the apartment you have booked, this is considered a defacto cancellation. The pre-payment is not refunded; you will need to make a new booking. Please note that the prepayment is non-refundable, not even in the case of major disruption. If you wish to cancel after you have made the booking, you need to let us know by email as soon as possible, at info@chicroombarcelona.com. Please make sure to quote your booking reference number, which can be found on your booking confirmation email. Cancellation fees, where applicable, depend on the amount of notice given.
We recommend our customers to purchase travel insurance with cancellation cover.
Please refer to our Terms and Conditions for the full terms of cancellation and fees.
To make the online prepayment with a credit card you need a major credit card such as Mastercard, Visa or American Express. Those without a credit card can make the payment using the Paypal payment service. Paypal accepts payment by debit card and in some countries even by bank transfer. During check-in, you pay the remaining open balance along with the damage deposit, as stated on your booking confirmation email.
Please note - if you require a receipt of payment for the remaining balance, you need to let us know at least 48 hours before your arrival so that the accommodation manager will be able to provide this for you.
