Every destination, package and service offered has been carefully selected to ensure an unparalleled travel experience. Furthermore, our expert team is always on hand to assist you at every stage of your journey, ensuring that every detail is taken care of to perfection.
-
Are the prices always the same even if the date changes?Prices vary based on various factors which may be seasonal, day of the week, occupancy status of the hotel, promotions, particular fairs in the city and more. The advice, to see the prices, is to enter the dates of your stay and make your own comparisons.
-
Is breakfast always included?No, it depends on the rate and whether the structure is organized to offer it or not. Check carefully before booking what is included and what is not and what type of service is offered.
-
Can I make special requests?Of course, when booking you will have a field where you can write directly to the property and make your requests. These will be evaluated by the Hotel who will respond directly to you. MeTour is not responsible in this decision-making process.
-
What types of beds will I find in the room I booked?The type of bed is usually specified in the room sheet. If you have any special requests or needs you can indicate them at the time of booking by writing them in the "special requests" field which will be forwarded directly to the property. In this process MeTour is not responsible.
- What is Paga in Structural and what are Payment Pre-Authorisations?
When you book, some facilities offer the possibility of paying directly at the facility. In these cases you will simply be asked to insert your credit (or debit) card to guarantee the booking, but without any charge. The sum will be taken from your credit card only in the cases provided for by the policies and conditions relating to your booking. In other cases, when the Partner does not adopt automatic availability and booking systems, but confirms reservations "manually", then you will be asked to insert your credit (or debit) card to guarantee the reservation, and then be directly charged at the same time as the Partner confirms the booking (within 24-48 hours). At that moment you will receive an email with the booking confirmation and payment.
-
How do I know if my card has been pre-authorized?By consulting your credit card balance you will see that your available balance will be temporarily reduced by the amount of your booking. In other cases and depending on the policy of your credit card circuit, you may also find an entry in the monthly summary of card movements: "pending operation". The pre-authorization block, depending on the situation, will be maintained according to the policies and terms and conditions of what has been booked.
-
How can I cancel or change my booking?Easy, enter the customer area with your credentials and from there you can modify or cancel your booking. Remember that changing dates or canceling with a refund request depends on the rate you chose when booking.
-
Can I transfer my reservation to another person?For this request, contact the property directly which may have a specific policy in this regard or may need further data on the person to whom you want to transfer the booking.
-
How can I get help with my booking?Enter the customer area with your credentials and from there you can contact us or by writing through our contact form specifying your booking number and the reason for the contact request. We recommend that you also leave a telephone number where you can be reached in case of need.
-
Are there taxes, local charges or extras to be paid directly on site?They are normally clearly indicated in the property sheet or added during the booking phase depending on local regulations or the facility's policies. But even if not clearly indicated, payments may be requested directly to the facility for any tourist taxes, local charges or extras not included in the rate. The advice is to read everything carefully before booking or writing to us through our contact form.
-
Are small pets allowed?It is often clearly stated in the property sheet and for this reason we invite you to carefully read their policies. Where not indicated, we invite you to contact us through our contact form for more information.

Covid 19 Reservations/Cancellations/Changes of Dates/Refunds:
-
For reservations made we advise you to keep in mind the risk related to Coronavirus (COVID-19) and related government measures. If you book a rate that is not “flexible” or “non-cancellable” or “non-changeable”, you may not be entitled to a refund in the event of cancellation or to a refund. Any requests for cancellation or date changes will be handled based on the policy of the rate chosen at the time of booking and any consumer protection laws. In uncertain times like these, MeTour recommends booking with rates that allow free cancellation or date changes, so that if you have to change plans or restrictions arise, you can cancel for free up to the deadline set by the structure.
-
Covid-19: travel restrictions and adviceMeTour encourages its Partners to follow a careful prevention policy towards the Covid-19 pandemic, promoting those structures with strict sanitization and control protocols and monitors any contagion situations by blocking reservations towards those structures or places that are particularly affected. However, since we cannot intervene directly on the structures, which are independent from MeTour, the advice is to check whether there are travel restrictions in place before booking and reaching the structure. In fact, travel may only be authorized for specific reasons and, in particular, travel for tourist purposes may not be permitted. We recommend that you visit the government websites of the various countries in the world of destination, the website of the WHO (World Health Organization) and local government bodies, official information sites and, last but not least, the website of the Booked Facilities. . MeTour is not responsible for the content of the aforementioned sites, but recommends consulting news that is as up to date as possible.

The Kings Arms is a great spot to go for lunch. The menu has a very wide range and it's reasonably priced the food always comes out nice and hot. The staff behind the bar are very welcoming and warm. The nice thing about this Pub is you know you're always going to get the same level of service

Lack of attention
3 for brunch.
One tea pot turned up without lid. Surely they have other tea pots? Nice tea though.
Gluten free bread completely inedible . Was left completely and no one asked why.
Vegetarian breakfast more expensive than full English. Seriously what’s that all about? And don’t blame it on the teaspoon size dollop of avo! And tastes like it’s been cooked next to or even on top of the meat. Marco Pierre couldn’t even make a mushrooms taste like that without cooking it with the meat!
Underwear and outline of buttocks show when staff member adding logs to fire. Not needed at brunch time.
Cleared away one glass from table after we had finished.
Staff member just walked away and vanished leaving payment machine on bar for last person to pay. Had to ask another member of staff for receipt.
Lack of attention to detail? Or just lack of attention….

Not as toasty as we’d hoped
We came to the Kings Arms as we thought it would be warm and toasty with the log fire and everything. The fire was on, but it didn’t feel like there was much other heating on. I sat on the bench and touched the radiator behind which was on but very low. Even with the fire on in front of us it was too cold to stay too long so we headed next door to the Crown.
Choose how to pay. Always in a safe way.
