For groups

Standard Group bookings are defined as an organised group of 10 people or more.
There is a legal requirement at licensed Youth Hostels for a minimum 1:10 ratio of adults to children.
The Lead Person is required to be resident within the Youth Hostel throughout the duration of their booking.
The Lead Person must be aged 18 years or over.
For all group bookings, Nitra Glycerin Hostel must have a direct mobile telephone contact with the Lead Person whilst travelling, and a contact email address.
On arrival at the Youth Hostel the Lead Person is required to sign all relevant registration documentation. The Lead Person is required to present a full list of participants to Nitra Glycerin Hostel staff.
The normal arrival time at Nitra Glycerin Hostel is no earlier than 15:00 hours. Luggage storage for early arrivals may be available, but this should be checked with our staff in advance.
Groups wishing to arrive later than 18:00 hours on their arrival day should notify the hostel prior to arrival to retain the accommodation booked.
The Lead Person may be liable for damage caused by the action of their party members and/or be asked to remove their group from the hostel if behaviour is unacceptable. Any damage to the hostel or its contents will be charged to the group.
Leaders accompanying a party must agree to be responsible and accountable for the behaviour and actions of their party. Hostel policy states that any member of a party found misbehaving or contravening hostel rules jeopardises the stay of the whole group. The leader(s) are liable for all damages caused by the actions of their party. To this end a security deposit of €200.00 must be paid on arrival.
This deposit will be refunded in full if no damages are caused by the group while staying at the hostel. Damages and expenses incurred by the hostel due to the actions of the group will be deducted from the security deposit. Any expenses incurred beyond the limits of the deposit will be sought from the group leader(s). It is a condition at booking that the group leader(s) accept this liability.
For group bookings a 30% non-refundable deposit of the full booking value must be paid to confirm the reservation. The remaining will need to be paid at least 1 month before the group arrival date.
Please note that our group cancellation policy is 14 days before the group’s arrival. A refund cannot be given if notice of cancellation is given after outside of this period.
We will do our best to accommodate a change in the number of guests providing if it does not exceed 20% of the total number of guests in the group and as long as it requested at least 1 month before group arrival.
We will accommodate the number of people in the room types pre-confirmed by you. In the unusual circumstance that more people arrive with your group than have been booked with us, we will try and accommodate the extra people but they will be asked to pay out single booking rack rate at check-in.
Please keep in mind that we cannot always accommodate groups all on the same floor because of the layout of the buildings and the room type chosen, but we will always try and do our best to accommodate groups close together.
Please ensure guests have adequate travel insurance. We do NOT take responsibility for any lost or stolen property. Please inform your groups.
In the event of Force Majeure (governmental action; fire; flood; insurrection; earthquake; power failure; riot; explosion; embargo, transportation interruption of any kind; terrorist attack; acts of God… ) affecting your booking, the company reserves the right to receive any outstanding payments in connection to your confirmed booking.
All bookings are subject to availability and Nitra Glycerin Hostel reserves the right to decline any booking at its discretion.
