DEPOSIT AND HOTEL CANCELLATION POLICY
- The hotel will charge a one-night non-refundable deposit at the time of your reservation which will be charged to your credit card at the time of booking. Please note that the credit card expiry date must be past the date of your stay in order to book on line. If it is not, then you must call the reservation phone number. The balance of your stay is due at the time of check out.
- Should you need to cancel or shorten your stay, this can be done up to 30 days prior to your arrival date but the one-night non-refundable deposit will be charged regardless.
- No refunds or credits will be given for any nights cancelled AFTER 30 days prior to your arrival. For example, if you cancel anytime after the 30 days before your arrival you will be charged for your full stay. This is a hotel policy and not one that the CAMA National Office can negotiate for you. You must call the Fairmont directly if you are in a position that you can't attend. You are responsible for looking for other options such as sending an alternative staff member or finding another colleague to transfer your hotel room to.
