After accepting the terms and conditions by clicking on the appropriate box, the reservation can be checked. A correction is possible by clicking the arrow button ("back"). lt is possible to cancel the reservation by closing the browser. By clicking on the button "Complete Reservation" the guest submits a binding reservation request, which we accept by confirming the reservation by e-mail. The contract for the table reservation is concluded upon receipt of our confirmation e-mail.

2. Reservation period

We grant guests a period of 1.5 hours in case of an effective reservation, as we would like to give other guests the opportunity to visit our location as well.

3. No-show despite reservation

lf the guest does not show up at the time of reservation despite having made a reservation, the reservation expires and we reserve the right to assign the table to someone eise.

4. Scope of online reservation

Online reservations are limited to a maximum of 8 people. The reservation must correspond to the number of actual guests. lf guests do not appear despite a binding reservation, we reserve the right to assert claims for damages.

5. Reservation clause

For the sake of order, we would like to point out that the table reservation is subject to the proviso that the regulations of the Law on the Prevention and Control of lnfectious Diseases in Humans (lfSG) and the relevant regulations of the CoronaSchVO NRW applicable at the time of reservation must be observed by the guests.

III. SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR EVENT BOOKINGS

1. Conclusion of contract for event bookings

Our offers on the Internet, within the framework of online booking systems, in brochures or notices for booking an event are merely an invitation to the guest to make non-binding inquiries to us so that we cancheck free capacities. lf we have free capacities, we reserve our location and send an offer by e-mail. A binding contract for an event booking is only concluded when the guest accepts our offer at least in text form (e.g. by e-mail). The binding period of our offers can be found in the offer itself.





2. Prices / Payment for event booking

Prices and terms of payment result from our offer. They are quoted in eures and include the statutory value-added tax.

lnvoices for services rendered are due and payable immediately. In addition, we shall be entitled to invoice partial services and service sections by means of interim or partial invoices and to demand reasonable advance payments of the agreed total gross remuneration. The amount of the advance payment including the payment dates can be agreed in the contract in text form. lf the guest does not pay the partial invoices within a grace period set by us, we are entitled to terminate the contract for cause, provided that we have informed the guest of the possibility of termination when setting the grace period. In these cases, we reserve the right to assert claims for damages.

3. Cancellation of an event by the guest

We grant our guests under the following conditions the possibility to withdraw from binding event bookings completely or partially without giving reasons (hereinafter referred to as "cancellation"). In this case, the guest must reimburse us - insofar as we are not responsible for the cancellation and there is no case of force majeure - for reasonable compensation for the precautions taken, expenses incurred and the reservation of the premises, whereby we take into account income from the implementation of alternative events and saved expenses.

Taking into account the usually saved expenses, we demand the following lump-sum compensation for loss ("cancellation fee") in the event of cancellation by the guest:

  • Up to 10 days before the event date 25%
  • Up to 5 days before the event date 50%
  • Up to 3 days before the event date 25%
  • Up to 2 days before the event date 95%
  • On the day of the event date 100%.

of the total gross remuneration attributable to the cancelled service.

Saved expenses are tobe credited. The guest is entitled to prove that we have incurred no or less damage. We are free to prove that a higher claim exists.

Decisive for the time of cancellation is its receipt by us. The "remuneration due for the cancelled service" means the prices calculated at the time of the conclusion of the contract, unless these have changed in the meantime in accordance with the agreement, e.g. as a result of a different number of participants from the number used as the basis for the conclusion of the contract. In this case, the order value is to be determined according to prices that apply at the time of the cancellation in accordance with the agreement reached with the guest and the provisions of these GTC.

Cancellations must be made in writing, i.e. at least in text form (e.g. by e-mail).

Legal cancellation and withdrawal rights of the guest remain unaffected by this provision.

An agreed advance payment will not be made even after a reasonable grace period set by us has expired;

Force majeure or a circumstance for which we are not responsible and which

a) is beyond our control,

b) could not reasonably have been foreseen by us at the time of the conclusion of the contract and

c) could not reasonably have been avoided by us, makes it impossible for us to fulfill the contract (e.g. war, compliance with laws and government orders, epidemics, pandemics, natural disasters, extreme natural events, fire, prolonged failure of telecommunications, information systems or energy, strike, etc.);

The event booking is based on culpably made misleading or false statements or concealment of essential facts; essential can be the identity of the guest, the solvency or the purpose of stay; The purpose or cause of the event is against the law.

lf we justifiably withdraw from the event booking, we are released from the obligation to fulfill our contractual obligation as well as from anyliability for damages or any other contractual remedy for breach of contract.

The declaration of withdrawal must be made at least in text form.

5. Special cancellation conditions COVID-19

In the event that, as a direct consequence of official orders or decrees in connection with the COVID 19 pandemic, the event cannot be held to the contractually agreed extent, the parties undertake as a matter of priority to adapt the contract to the changed conditions. In particular, but not conclusively, a reduction in the number of participants free of charge, a division of the participants into different groups or rooms or a postponement of the event to a later date free of charge may be considered.

Should an adjustment of the contract be unreasonable for one of the parties (e.g. absolute fixed transaction), the latter shall be entitled to withdraw from the contract free of charge as soon as the negotiations on an adjustment of the contract have finally been unsuccessful. lf one party successfully invokes this clause, the parties shall be mutually released from their contractual obligations and from any liability for damages or any other contractual remedy for breach of contract as of that time.

The declaration of withdrawal must be made in writing or in text form.
