TERMS+CONDITIONS

Terms and Conditions
Cancellation and Change Policy
As a small, independent property, we ask for your understanding in respecting our cancellation, change, and no-show policy. Please read carefully.

If you must change, shorten or cancel your reservation, do so within the timeframe indicated below for a full refund minus the specified change/cancellation fee (per room). If a reservation is cancelled or shortened after the cancellation period expires, the guest is responsible for full payment of the original reservation unless the room(s) is re-booked. Changes or cancellations must be made via phone or by email, and you must receive a confirmation email from Hopkins House Hotel. There are no refunds for early departure.

Inclement Weather Policy: San Marcos is lucky to enjoy 300 sunny days per year. Please understand that we cannot be responsible for inclement weather or other causes for delays and cancellations at your point of origin or the locations you may connect through when traveling to visit us. We strongly advise you to purchase travel insurance if you are traveling during periods of inclement weather or you have other reasons to suspect you may need to cancel your reservation. We thank you for your understanding!

Re-booking Policy: If you cancel your reservation after the cancellation period expires, we will attempt to re-book your room. If your room is re-booked, you will be charged the applicable change/cancellation fee noted below, plus a processing fee equal to 10% (plus tax) of the original reservation amount. If your room does not re-book, you are responsible for full payment of the original reservation. Please note that our re-booking policy applies only to reservations booked directly through the hotel and not through online travel agencies. It does not apply to "Nonrefundable reservations" as noted below.

Cancellation periods and fees
Standard reservation: $25 change/cancellation fee per room if reservation is shortened, changed, or cancelled at any time up to 7 days prior to arrival. If less than 7 days prior to arrival, you are financially responsible for the full reservation unless room is re-booked (see re-booking policy above). 
Stays of five nights or longer, or group reservations of 3 rooms or more: $50 change/cancellation fee per room if reservation is shortened, changed or cancelled at any time up to 30 days prior to arrival. If less than 30 days prior to arrival, you are financially responsible for the full reservation unless room is re-booked (see re-booking policy above). 

Reservation booked through travel agencies and outside sources: Our best rates and most flexible cancellation policies are available when you book directly with our hotel. For reservations booked through online travel agencies or other third-party sources, the cancellation policy that applies will be the policy stated on the booking confirmation sent by the booking agency. 

Full property rentals: Your rental agreement will specify the terms of your rental and the specific cancellation policy that applies. All online booking of full-property rentals are subject to management review and a separate rental agreement is required. Online bookings of full-property rentals will be considered unconfirmed reservation requests until you receive specific communication and instruction from the hotel.

Checkout is 11:00 a.m. We have a small, awesome staff that needs time to prepare rooms for arriving guests. If you require more time, a late checkout can sometimes be arranged with prior notifications for an additional hourly fee. Please submit your request the night before.

Credit Card Authorization and Payment
A valid credit card is required to make a reservation. We accept all major credit cards. Your credit card will be charged for the full reservation amount at the time the cancellation period expires (see Cancellation and Change Policy above for cancellation periods). If using a debit card, please note that your bank will hold your funds at this time; for this reason, bank cards are typically discouraged for all hotel reservations.

Damage to Property
Guests are responsible for any damage or loss they cause to the property.

Group Reservations

Group reservations are limited to a maximum of 10 guests (typically 5 rooms), except in the case of full-property rentals. For full-property rentals, a maximum of 22 guests are allowed. Before booking online, please email us regarding your group's stay so that we can mutually determine if our hotel is a good fit for you. All group rentals of 5 or more rooms will be reviewed by management prior to official confirmation. Therefore, reservation requests submitted online for 5 or more rooms, or individual online reservation requests that constitute a group reservation of 5 or more rooms, are considered unconfirmed requests until personally confirmed by a manager via email.

Our small hotel has eight rooms. One room with a double suite (Frio Double Suite) is located on the ground floor. All other rooms are located up a flight of stairs in The Wood House (main house) or The Thomas House.

Prior to and during your stay, please advise if special accommodation or accessible parking is needed and our team will work with you to ensure you have a wonderful visit.
