Accommodation in hotels is in twin/double bedded rooms, the majority of which have private bath/shower and toilet although occasionally this will be shower and toilet only. On cruise ships, accommodation is in cabins with shower and toilet only. Please note that in rainforest, safari and desert locations, accommodation may be in lodges or campsites where standards may vary and toilet facilities may not be en suite. Please note that where we provide details of guest room facilities at hotels in our brochures, we cannot guarantee that all rooms will be equipped with all of these.
Upgraded rooms - Please note that all upgraded rooms are subject to the hotel’s availability at the time of the request and is only guaranteed once we have confirmed this to you. The room facilities and upgrade descriptions are correct at the time of going to print.
Quality rating - Titan ‘T’ ratings provide a reliable standardised rating system for hotels and ships that reflects our interpretation of quality in line with the expectations of a British clientele, and will therefore not necessarily match local ratings or indeed the hotel’s own rating. Ratings ascend up to 5T with T+ denoting a half-grade increase (3T, 3T+, 4T, 4T+, 5T).
Single Rooms - Despite the fact that single rooms carry a supplement, single accommodation is sometimes not of the same size as twin/double accommodation, particularly in Europe due to the age and character of many hotels. Single rooms may not always be in the same area of the hotel as a twin/double, and the single supplement does not necessarily mean a twin/double room will be provided for single occupancy unless specifically stated.
Triple Rooms - When booking triple rooms, it should be recognised that a third person is required to either share existing beds or an extra bed is placed in the room which can be a camp-style bed or a sofa bed. The addition of an extra bed can sometimes make accommodation slightly cramped. Rooms with 3 beds may not be available at all hotels. If a bed share is not appropriate and an additional single room has to be booked, this will be charged as an extra.
Swimming Pools - Where a hotel has a swimming pool, the period when the pool is available is at the hotelier’s discretion and is often seasonal. This may be affected by weather or essential maintenance. These situations are beyond our control.
