How group bookings work
We take group bookings of ten people or more, for a minimum of two nights.
Groups book rooms in their entirety and cannot part-reserve a room. Our dorms are four-bed rooms, so a group of ten takes three rooms. Individual dorm beds are sold one at a time to everybody else, but not within a group booking.
All group bookings are subject to availability, and rates may vary in accordance with special events and bank holidays.
One member of the group is to be appointed leader. They complete the code of conduct form on arrival and are the dedicated liaison person for the duration of the reservation. That person is held responsible for any damage done, or costs arising from breaking the code of conduct.
Paying for a group booking
| When | What is due |
|---|---|
| To confirm the booking | A 10% deposit, non-refundable, which covers administration costs |
| 14 days before arrival | Full payment |
| 14 days before arrival | Final numbers and rooming details |
| On arrival | A security deposit of €20 per person |
The €20 per person security deposit is refundable at check-out, provided there is no claim against it. See the code of conduct.
To ensure correct allocation, final details are required 14 days prior to arrival. No refunds are available if numbers reduce after that point.
Cancelling a group booking
| When you cancel | What is charged |
|---|---|
| More than 14 days before arrival | Your 10% deposit is not refunded. Nothing further is charged |
| 14 to 8 days before arrival | 50% of the total booking value |
| 7 days or fewer before arrival, or no-show | 100% of the total booking value |
Groups we cannot take
We do not accept university groups or teams, and will evict any that sneak in.
Code of conduct
Every group booking is subject to our code of conduct, which the group leader signs on arrival. In short: no smoking anywhere in the building, drink stays in the bar, no excess noise, no visitors, and any damage is charged. Read it in full on our house rules page.
