Latest update on 5/11/21,

 

Latest news about the covid-19 and the French mandatory 'health pass'

 

Due to recent government policy announcements, all guests more than18 years will be required to obtain a health pass upon arrival.

The coronavirus Health Pass will only be required once, upon arrival.

Once the covid health pass has been submitted on arrival day, guests will be able to use all the facilities (swimming pool, breakfast room, bar, etc.) without having to submit it again during their stay.

 

There are three ways to proof valid health pass:

1. Proof of Vaccination, as long as you have a complete vaccination schedule and as long as you have received your final injection within:

- 7 days after the second injection for those vaccines with double injection (Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca).

- 28 days after the injection for those vaccines with a single injection (Johnson & Johnson).

- 7 days after injection for vaccines for those who have had a Covid history (single injection).

2. Proof of a negative RT-PCR, or antigenic test as well as a self-test supervised by a healthcare professional less than 72 hours old (certified with a QR code readable by the TousAntoCovidVerif App).    

3. A certificate proving recovery from Covid-19 with a positive RT-PCR or antigenic test result that is at least 11 days old and less than 6 months old.

 

For more information, including how to get your health pass, go to the government website https://www.gouvernement.fr/info-coronavirus/pass-sanitaire

 

On September 30, these same conditions will also apply for guests more than 12 years old.

 

These measures are conditional upon further government guidelines.

 

In case of lack of a valid covid health pass, customers cannot use this reason to get a free postponement or cancellation (*) as these changes do not affect the course of their stay and do not fall under any exceptional and unavoidable circumstances or force majeure.  The general conditions of sale and the Tourism Code apply. However, the 'Guaranteed refund related to Covid-19' offer is still in effect (**).

 

Moreover, guests are invited to anticipate and download before arrival the French official application ' TousAntiCovid ', available on : App Store or Google Play in order to help us in facilitating the check-in process, especially in terms of length of treatment, and to allow us to ensure a convenient check-in and that your stay starts as peacefully as possible.

 

Thanking you in advance for your patience and understanding, we remain at your disposal for any further information.

Looking forward to welcoming you,

 

The Direction.
