You may still be liable to pay the full cost to the Parador(s) concerned even if you decide to cancel your accommodation later, subject to the cancellation policy below.

Amendments

THIS SYSTEM HAS NO FACILITY FOR AMENDING RESERVATIONS ONLINE.

All amendments to confirmed reservations need to be requested through Key Tours Ltd by phone during normal office hours or by email on the contact details below. Key Tours Ltd will make the necessary amendments to your booking (subject to availability) and will issue you with your new booking confirmation and new vouchers for the whole itinerary. Any additional payment or refund due as a result of the amendment to your original booking will be charged to or credited to your card, as appropriate. The corporate or business credit card surcharge is non-refundable.

All amendments are subject to the availability both of the room(s) and of any offer(s) that may apply, and subject to the condition of the tariff originally booked. Non-refundable reservations cannot be amended or refunded. Amendments are not subject to any charge up to 3 working days prior to arrival date provided that the amendment can be made. Where special offers apply, these offers are restricted to a limited allocation of rooms per night, and when a reservation already confirmed on a special offer rate is modified, the availability of the new date(s) or room(s) on any “special offer” cannot necessarily be guaranteed. Please be aware that prices vary depending on the dates and hotel selected, so an additional charge (or refund) may apply.

Amendments requested within 3 working days* prior to arrival may incur a cancellation charge which normally corresponds to the cost of the first night booked and this will be made clear in any communication with Key Tours International at the time of making the amendment or any subsequent communication on this matter (*subject to the tariff being modifiable).
