Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions, as may be amended from time to time, apply to all our services directly or indirectly.

By accessing and using our website or any of our applications through any platform and/or by completing a reservation, you acknowledge and agree to have read, understood and agreed to the terms and conditions set out below.

These pages, the content and infrastructure of these pages, and the online hotel reservation service provided on these pages and through the website (the "service") are owned, operated and provided by Travel BaMa ("Travel BaMa", "us", "we" or "our") and are provided subject to the terms and conditions set out below.


1. Our Contractual Relationship With You

Through the website we (TravelBama.com and its affiliate (distribution) partners) provide an online platform through which hotels (including all types of accommodation) and Accommodation Suppliers (hereafter referred to as "suppliers") can advertise their rooms for reservation.

By making a reservation through Travel BaMa, you enter into a direct contractual relationship with us.

In return for our services to you and to handle the payment processing we add a booking fee to each reservation made through our system. The prices displayed on our website include our booking fees.


2. The information on our website including the rates and availabilities

The information that we disclose is based on the information provided to us by the suppliers. As such, the suppliers are fully responsible for updating all rates, availability and other information which is displayed on our website.

Although we will use reasonable skill and care in performing our services we will not verify or guarantee that, all information is accurate, complete or correct, nor can we be held responsible for any errors, any interruptions of our website or otherwise, inaccurate, misleading or untrue information or non-delivery of information. Each hotel supplier remains responsible at all times for the accuracy, completeness and correctness of the (descriptive) information (including the rates and availability) displayed on our website. Our website does not constitute and should not be regarded as a recommendation or endorsement of the quality, service level or rating of any hotel made available.


3. Prices

The prices on our site are highly competitive. All prices displayed include the room charge for your entire stay for all the guests mentioned in the voucher. It also includes the VAT and Hotel Service Charge, unless stated otherwise.

Our prices do not include, City Tax ( if any ), The resort fee ( if any ) and other ancillary room charges .

Please note that a small number of hotels charge a resort fee. The hotels ask for these to be paid directly by customers upon check in. When known these will be listed within the description of the hotel or when selecting your room option.

You are responsible for payment of any charges levied for use of any ancillary services provided by the hotel, which are not covered by the quoted room rate. Such services could include facilities such as telephone calls, laundry service, security safe, room service, newspapers, plus damages and any other fees levied by the accommodation provider for the use of amenities. Therefore, you are likely to be asked to pay a deposit when you arrive at the accommodation, which will normally be applied to a credit card, in order to cover supplementary charges that may be incurred by you during your stay.


4. Payment

For the public users of our services we need to receive the full cost of the booking immediately before confirming your reservation.

Some of our approved agents may be given a few days after reservation within which they must pay the full cost of the booking. Failure to receive clear funds prior to the payment deadline shall result in an automatic cancellation of the reservation and we shall not be held responsible to communicate the cancellation to you.


5. Cancellation

By making a reservation with us, you accept and agree to our cancellation and no-show policy for each hotel. The cancellation rule of each hotel is made available on our website at the hotel reservation pages, during the reservation procedure and in the confirmation email and voucher.

Please note that certain rates or special offers are not eligible for free cancellation or change. Please check the room details thoroughly for any such conditions prior to making your reservation.

If you do not inform us that you wish to cancel a booking by check out date and no person shows up to check in at the hotel you will incur 100% of the cost of the booking.


6. Change of Reservation Detail

Any change in booking details including but not limited to change of guest names, adding extra guests, change of dates, change of hotel, change of room type and change of board type is dependent on each booking.

Unfortunately we are not able to guarantee any of these changes due to our contractual agreement with our hotel suppliers.

In the event that you need to make any of above changes, we would put your request to the relevant hotel supplier or the hotel. We cannot guarantee that they will fulfill your request but they may be able to do it possibly for an extra charge.

Alternatively you can make a new booking with us and cancel your previous booking. Please note that you may have to pay a cancellation charge and any new booking is subject to new rates and availability as our system is constantly updated by hotel suppliers.

It is recommended that you check the booking conditions before you cancel or make any new reservation.


7. Disclaimer

Subject to the limitations set out in these terms and conditions and to the extent permitted by law, we shall only be liable for direct damages actually suffered, paid or incurred by you due to an attributable shortcoming of our obligations in respect to our services, up to an aggregate amount of the aggregate cost of your reservation as set out in the confirmation email (whether for one event or series of connected events).

However and to the extent permitted by law, neither we nor any of our officers, directors, employees, representatives, subsidiaries, affiliated companies, distributors, affiliate (distribution) partners, licensees, agents or others involved in creating, sponsoring, promoting, or otherwise making available the site and its contents shall be liable for

8. Room Types

Please make sure to enter the correct total number of people (including infants and children) when searching and booking an accommodation.

Otherwise you may be refused access to the accommodation or charged an additional amount.

(a) Single rooms - Single rooms and twin/double bedded rooms for sole occupancy are available in most hotels. Single rooms are generally smaller in size and less conveniently located. 

(b) Twin/ Double rooms - Hotels may occasionally allocate a twin room even though a double room is reserved, or vice-versa. If the room type is of paramount importance to you then we suggest that you contact us and we will ensure that this request is passed to the hotel. In many hotels, the double rooms are made up of two single beds pushed together to make a double bed. 

(c) Extra beds/Triple rooms - Hotels may provide triple room facilities, which have foldable or rollaway beds, as opposed to standard single beds. A triple room often contains 1 double bed plus a single or rollaway bed or three separate beds, one of which may be a rollaway bed. Either may result in a room of restricted space. 
Extra beds may be provided for children between the ages of 2 and 12 years and the rate quoted may or may not include this to be free. This will depend on every hotel's policy. Usually children over the age of 12 years will be charged as an adult and a triple room rate applies if sharing with two parents and they receive an extra bed included in the price. Children under the age of 2 years are regarded as an infant and a cot, if requested and available, will be provided at the hotel free of charge.


9. Travel Agents

Some of our loyal Travel agents may benefit from a more flexible payment arrangement. However we must hold:

  • a) The total cancellation charge for each booking by 6:pm local time 2 days prior to the free cancellation deadline
  • b) The full booking cost by 6:pm local time 2 days prior to check in date
