ELIOPHOT operates the Domaine le Clos des Fontaines booking website, www.leclosdesfontaines.com. This website showcases the Domaine le Clos des Fontaines establishments managed by the SAS L’HOTEL.
By ticking the relevant box, the Client confirms they have read and accept these general terms and conditions for the rate booked prior to definitively confirming their booking. No booking may be made without this express agreement.
For all other booking methods, the Client receives the general terms and conditions of sale prior to confirming their booking. Confirming a booking implies agreement with these terms and conditions of sale and the full and unconditional acceptance of their provisions.
All bookings made by minors (aged 16 to 18 years) may only be accepted by the hotel following signed parental permission issued by the legal guardians of the minor responsible for making the booking, and those of any additional guests that may be accompanying them. The Domaine le Clos des Fontaines reserves the right to request any supporting documentation needed to authenticate the signature provided on the parental permission in question.
For the purposes of these terms and conditions, the following terms shall have the given definitions:
The SAS L’HOTEL reserves the right to modify or add to all or part of these terms and conditions of sale at any time. In the event that changes are made, the new version of the general terms and conditions shall be made available on the Website along with the date from which they apply. Clients are advised to check the general terms and conditions of sale on a regular basis to stay abreast of any potential changes. Clients shall only ever be bound by the version of the general terms and conditions in force at the time at which the Client books their chosen Service.
The SAS L’HOTEL as well as the Domaine le Clos des Fontaines cannot be held liable for damages of any kind that may result from these changes and/or temporary unavailability or definitive closure of all or part of the Website or its associated Services, such as the online booking section, private account area or unavailability of the booking centre.
On the Website, the Client ticks a box confirming that they have read, understood and accepted these general terms and conditions and the terms and conditions for the rate booked prior to definitively confirming their booking. No booking can be made without this acceptance.
For all other booking methods, the Client receives the general terms and conditions of sale with the booking confirmation. The booking confirmation implies agreement with these terms and conditions of sale and the full and unconditional acceptance of their provisions.
If the Client does not receive this email in the 24 hours following booking, the Client is responsible for contacting the hotel to ensure the establishment has received their details and the booking is confirmed.
In the event of a no-show, meaning a booking that is not cancelled, but where the Client nonetheless fails to check in at the hotel on the day booked, where the booking was secured via bank card details or prepayment, the hotel will debit the amount for one booked night, or will retain the amount prepaid. For stays where multiple nights are booked, the cancellations terms apply in accordance with the terms and conditions for the rate booked.
Non-French guests, including clients’ guests and teenagers over the age of fifteen, are required to fill in a mandatory ‘police reference form’. Minors under the age of fifteen may be included on the form filled in by the adult accompanying them.

Clients may only invite third parties to their room following the hotel express approval, with the establishment reserving the right to conduct any necessary checks.
For health and safety reasons, and to ensure comfort for all our guests, smoking is strictly prohibited inside the hotel. In compliance with the French public health code and its provisions surrounding smoking bans in collective spaces, smoking inside the hotel may result in a third-category fine or legal proceedings.
Penalties equivalent to the price of the booked room may be applied if a Client fails to comply with the smoking ban notices displayed in their rooms, if such a notice is in place.
