Arrival/Departure
Check-in time is from 3pm. We allow guests to arrive earlier and can store any luggage until the room is ready. Check-out time is prior to 11am – later departure times can be arranged, subject to availability, however applicable day-use charges or an additional night’s fee may also apply.
Cancellations
Our standard cancellation policy requires reservation cancellations or changes to be advised to us by 4pm, hotel time, one day prior to arrival. Any cancellations thereafter may incur a charge of the first nights’ accommodation package cost.
Some prepaid rates, discounted rates, high demand and special event periods may incur an alternative cancellation policy. The cancellation policy will be communicated during the reservation process and is also supplied in the confirmation email.
No show policy
Failure to arrive on the date specified will result in the cancellation of your booking and may incur a charge equal to the first nights’ accommodation package cost.
Credit card authorisation
The Old Clare Hotel pre-authorises all credit cards on check-in to check for validity and sufficiency of funds. Pre-authorised cards are held as security for your reservation and may be utilised by the hotel for any applicable charges, including cancellation and no show fees. In addition to the cost of the room, a $100AUD security deposit is required upon check-in this is set aside by the credit card company and may affect the available funds balance or spending limit.
Incidentals policy
A valid credit card must be presented upon check-in and will be authorised to cover additional room and tax, plus up to $100 a night for incidentals.
Credit card surcharge
A surcharge of 1.5% applies when making any payments with a credit card.
Rooftop pool & bar usage
Occasionally during peak times our rooftop pool and bar may be closed for in house guests due to exclusive event bookings. Please contact the hotel prior to booking for availability.
Minimum length of stay
A minimum length of stay may apply during high demand or special event periods, as determined by The Old Clare Hotel. If you reserve a room over such dates (as per the reservation terms and conditions) you agree to stay for the required minimum nights. Any changes or cancellations (within the cancellation period) are subject to a penalty and may result in the forfeiting of any pre-payments.
Photo identification
Valid photo identification (ID) matching the name of the main guest within the reservation must be presented at time of check-in. This is required in order to verify your identity for hotel security purposes and to protect the credit cardholder. A valid Australian driver’s license, Australian issued proof of age card or an international passport are all acceptable forms of photo identification. This ID may be copied and securely stored as record that we have verified who you are and your authority to use your credit card as a combat to increasing credit card fraud. As per our privacy policy, any personal information contained on the collected identification will not be on-sold; will be securely stored and carefully disposed of at the end of its usefulness.
