Guests cannot pay on arrival and it is their responsibility to call the hotel and pay the outstanding balance. Guests that fail to pay 6 weeks prior, will lose their room and £30 deposit.
To pay balance, guests should call Britannia Central Reservations Call Centre – 0161 923 9170 ask to pay your balance quoting your reference number given when deposit was paid.
IMPORTANT – Guests must check-in using the debit or credit card they used to pay for their booking. This policy is to stop charge back fraud.
