Our Powers
We can:
- Direct the hotel to take, or desist from taking, certain steps – such as providing a refund or exchange or issuing a formal apology.
- Direct the hotel to pay you a financial award by way of compensation (up to £25,000) for proven financial loss – where appropriate and applicable.
If the hotel is a member of RetailADR, they will be contractually obligated to implement our decision. However, if the hotel is not a member it will be within their discretion. In most circumstances we would expect non-member hotels to reconsider their position.
If a trader has refused, ignored, or otherwise left you unsatisfied after you made a complaint to them, you can escalate matters for FREE with RetailADR.
