Terms of website use, Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy
This page (together with the documents referred to on it) tells you the terms of use on which you may make use of our website Hotels Fashion (our site), whether as a guest or a registered user. Please read these terms of use carefully before you start to use the site. By using our site, you indicate that you accept these terms of use and that you agree to abide by them. If you do not agree to these terms of use, please refrain from using our site.
Information about us
Hotels Fashion is a site operated by Hotels Fashion Limited (“we” or “us”). We are registered in England and Wales under company number ******** and have our registered office ************
Hotels Fashion provides a website platform for facilitating short-term commercial letting arrangements, between Hotels and Fashion Brands.
How Hotels Fashion Works
Hotels Fashion is a platform that introduces fashion brands who need short term retail space to owners of retail space (Hotels) that are available on that basis. We make it easy for fashion brands to find space that suits their needs and then introduce them to a potential Landlord(Hotel). If the Landlord is happy then the Landlord and the Tenant will enter into a rental agreement directly. Hotels Fashion then collects the rental payments from the Tenant, on behalf of the Landlord.
Landlords
Landlords making their properties available through Hotels Fashion will enter into an Agreement with us which will govern the relationship between Landlords and us. These Terms will be incorporated into that Agreement by reference but in the event of any inconsistency between that Agreement and these terms or any other statement on the site then that Agreement will prevail.
Hotels Fashion is not responsible for the conduct of any prospective Tenant during the negotiations of any Tenancy Agreement.
Landlords accept that any decision to let a property to a particular Tenant is made solely by the Landlord without any representation, warranty or statement made to him by Hotels Fashion.
Hotels Fashion has no obligations to Landlords to reinstate, or repair, any properties let by Landlords at the end of any tenancy agreement.
Tenants
If you are a potential Tenant, when you have identified a property on Hotels Fashion which meets your requirements you submit an offer to the Landlord (Hotel) via the Website. The Landlord will then promptly respond, accepting your offer. When the offer is accepted you will enter into an agreement with Hotels Fashion either on the template terms or specific terms advised by the Landlord.
By using the Hotels Fashion website to access the Hotels Fashion database of available properties Tenants agree that they shall not make rental payments in respect of properties they have found on the Hotels Fashion website directly to the Landlord other than with the prior written agreement of Hotels Fashion.
Tenants must comply with the terms of their agreement with the Landlord, including any special terms or requirements that may be specified by the Landlord.
Tenants are responsible for insurance of their own property and for insurance against risks normally borne by occupiers of retail premises or otherwise specified by the Landlord. If a Tenant has any doubt about what insurance is required they should consult their own insurers or insurance brokers.
Tenants are responsible for satisfying themselves that a listed property fits their requirements, both as regards the specific features and facilities at the property and as regards the location. Hotels Fashion does not warrant or represent that properties listed by Landlords are of suitable condition to be let or that Landlords have the right to enter into rental contracts in respect of the properties listed by Landlords and to receive rental payments in respect of the properties. Landlords are responsible for the legality, accuracy and completeness of the description of all properties and related terms posted on the Website.
Hotels Fashion disclaims all liability for the legality, accuracy or completeness of any rental offers or content posted by Landlords and in respect of any proposed rental contract that fails to complete for any reason whatever.
Rental contracts are made exclusively between Landlords and Tenants. Hotels Fashion is not a party to any rental contract, or negotiation to any rental contract, and does not fulfil any obligations derived from the contractual relationship between Landlords and Tenants. Hotels Fashion does not make or accept any offers, either in its own capacity or on behalf of either Landlords or Tenants or any other party. Hotels Fashion disclaims all liability arising from or related to any rental contract to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Service Fee
The tenant service fee (“Service Fee”) helps us to run every aspect of the platform, this includes: facilitating secured transactions and online legals, developing our products and services, securing exclusive spaces, and providing a dedicated concierge service. A portion of every fee charged also goes to the Hotels Fashion Ideas Fund.
Any applicable Service Fees (including any applicable Taxes) will be displayed to a tenant prior to finalising their booking for a space. The Service Fee is set at 5% of the booking value (plus any applicable taxes) subject to a minimum charge of £50/$50/€50 (as applicable). We reserve the right to change the Service Fees at any time. Such fee changes will not affect any bookings made prior to the effective date of the fee change. Except as otherwise provided on the Hotels Fashion platform, Service Fees are non-refundable.
WeWork
If you are a participant in the WeWork promotion, you must comply with our WeWork terms and conditions.
General Terms
Hotels Fashion does not at any time provide, or purport to provide, any advice, or advisory services, to Landlords, Tenants or any other party, in particular with respect to the commercial, financial, legal or any other consequences of any rental agreement. Hotels Fashion disclaims all liability relating to the provision of advice relating to property. Landlords and Tenants accept that Hotels Fashion’s role is limited to no more than that of a facilitator.
Hotels Fashion reserves the right at its sole discretion to remove from the Website any illegal, inaccurate or misleading content, including anything that in its opinion is injurious to Hotels Fashion’s goodwill or goodwill attaching to the Website, without notice.
Hotels Fashion makes no warranty as to any particular result being achieved or obtained, or being achievable or obtainable, from use of the Website and the introduction of any prospective tenant to Landlord.
