“An Agreement Amongst Friends"
HOTEL POLICY AND CONTRACT FOR CANCELLATIONS OR REDUCTION IN NUMBERS
Arguments between friends usually stem from a misunderstanding; therefore we find it useful to have a form of contract in the
unlikely event that a disagreement arises.

deposit not be paid Atholl Palace Hotel will release the booking
without notice. To confirm your booking you must return the
completed wedding planner form and signed Terms and Conditions to

We suggest you consider wedding insurance to safe guard against any
unforeseen circumstances.
Minimum Requirements
All Saturdays between the beginning of April and the end of October,
including all dates in December, must cater for a minimum of 80 adults
for a wedding breakfast and evening buffet. there are no minimum
number requirements for the rest of the week. All weddings must
have a minimum of package A and evening buffet catering for 100% of
their guests. Should you wish to provide a Hog Roast, we will reduce
the package cost for your day guests however, there will be a £500
supplement charge.
Charges
The hotel requests that final numbers for catering purposes are
confirmed a minimum of 14 days prior to the event and we will charge
for that number accordingly. If the numbers catered for on the day
are greater than the minimum requirement then this number will be
charged. If the numbers catered for on the day fall below minimum
numbers required by the hotel then the hotel will charge for the
minimum numbers required as stated in the signed terms and
conditions. If numbers fall dramatically the hotel reserves the right to
change the allocated room to another appropriate room. Prices
include VAT at the current rate of 20%. If VAT rate increases, the hotel
reserves the right to change prices accordingly.

for on departure of the hotel. We may cancel your booking if you do
not pay the outstanding balance due in the timescale as stated above.

Wedding guests receive 10% off the hotels best available rate at the time
of booking when they quote the unique wedding code. All rates quoted
are on a per twin or double room sharing basis. Single rooms receive
£20.00 reduction from the standard rate. These rates may not be used
in conjunction with any other offer. These rates apply to members of

the event of the hotel expelling a guest it shall not be obliged to pay
compensation to the guest or client. The client agrees to pay the hotel
for any food, beverages or other services not provided for in this
contract but made available upon request of the client unless the hotel
has been specifically instructed in writing to obtain cash settlements
direct from the persons receiving such services. The hotel shall not be
liable for any breach of this contract because of strikes, labour disputes,
accidents or other causes beyond their control. In the event of any of the
above occurring the hotel shall offer the client an alternative venue if it
is available, failing which the hotel will terminate the contract and
refund the deposit. The hotels obligation to compensate the client will
be limited to the obligation of repaying the deposit.

be necessary to increase some of our charges from time to time.

Please Note:
The information is supplied as a guideline and booking should be made direct
except where indicated.
The Atholl Palace accepts no responsibility between the client and the
outside vendor at any time. Therefore we would recommend, in order to
avoid any misunderstanding, that verbal conversations are
confirmed in writing between yourself and the vendor and where
appropriate copied to the hotel. These conditions also apply to vendors being
booked by the Atholl Palace on behalf of a client.
