- Service and price changes
The description of our two holiday apartments as well as the pricing have been prepared with great care. There may be price or service changes. If this is the case, we will inform you at the latest at the time of booking.

If you are prevented as a result of traffic jam, weather, etc. and cannot take over the property as agreed, we will charge the full rent. The same will apply if you leave the property early. If you want to extend the stay, please discuss this with us in advance. Guests staying with us during the period of the free Bregenz Forest Card, are requested to inform names as well as birth dates of all fellow travellers (at least three, better seven days) in advance, so that the issuance of the card is not unnecessarily delayed.
- Withdrawal from the contract by you (valid from 7.11.2023)
What a pity if a room remains free when other guests could have booked. Therefore, we request you to inform us in good time – preferably in writing – if you cannot arrive on the agreed date. The following costs will be incurred in the event of cancellation, if you have not booked directly with us, but via an Internet platform or you have booked one of our packages.

• In case of a cancellation within 6 days before arrival or in case of a “no-show”, 90% of the total booking amount must be paid.
The cancellation conditions will apply even if the stay is shortened after booking. Please contact us as early as possible if you have any changes to your travel plans.
We recommend taking out travel cancellation insurance for the withdrawal from your travel due to an illness. (These prices are cheap.)
- Substitute rental properties and termination of the contract by Boutique Apartments Bezau – Irmgard Wilms
Boutique Apartments Bezau – Irmgard Wilms will be entitled to terminate the rental contract without notice in the event of force majeure, war, strike, changed dispositions of the owners or similar compelling reasons. In this case, the advance rent payments will be refunded in full.
- Obligations of the tenant
The rental property may only be occupied by the stipulated number of persons (children and babies included). Additional persons may be rejected by us or be charged separately on the spot. The rental property must be used carefully. This will include showing consideration to neighbours, etc. If the tenant or fellow user causes a damage, it must be immediately reported to us. The tenant will be liable for any damage or contaminations caused by him/her or the fellow users, which exceed the usual extent, unless they can prove otherwise. The same will apply if the apartment cannot be handed over to the next tenants. Smoking is prohibited in all apartments. Pets are not allowed.
Condition of the apartment at the time of return:
Our price for the final cleaning is carefully calculated; it defines the included services. Any additional expenses are not included in the price and will therefore be charged separately at cost. We request your understanding.
Any objects in the apartments may not be moved. All kitchenware must be returned to their place. Cooking utensils, glassware, crockery, kitchen gadgets and small appliances must be cleaned (no leftovers, water stains or similar). All waste must be disposed of separately in the designated place (shed in the outdoor area). No drawing pins/nails or adhesive tape/glue may be inserted into or onto walls and doors.
Additional expenses:
We will charge the following additional expenses that are not included in the final cleaning fee:
– Carrying and disposing of the waste in the shed separately – a lump-sum of €15 including VAT.
– Washing of dishes and cooking utensils – flat rate € 24 incl. VAT.
– Cleaning dirty downs, e.g. blood stains: per pillow with cover €24, per duvet with cover €60, per mattress topper €24, all prices including VAT.
– Cleaning of the baking oven with baking oven spray to loosen incrustations and fat – a lump-sum of €24
Loss of keys:
A loss of keys must be reported immediately. The guest will be liable for all costs in connection with the loss of keys. The replacement of the access chip (Airkey) will cost a lump-sum of €20 including VAT. Replacing the house keys is unfortunately time-consuming, as these are part of a locking system and therefore other keys in addition to the cylinder must also be replaced.
- Complaints, claims for compensation, our liability
If you have any complaints, please contact us directly. The defect must be reported immediately; late complaints that are reported after departure can no longer be accepted. We will not assume any liability to the tenant, while he/she occupies the accommodation. Insurance in any form will not be taken out for the tenant or for his/her belongings.
- Choice of law and legal domicile
The place of performance and legal domicile for all legal disputes arising from the legal relationship between the landlord and the tenant will be 6870 Bezau in Austria. Price changes and errors will remain reserved. This legal relationship will be governed exclusively by the regulations of the Austrian Law.
