NOTICE

LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO GUESTS’ PROPERTY

UNDER the Innkeepers Act 1968 , an innkeeper may in certain circumstances be liable to make good any loss of or damage to a guest’s property even though it was not due to any fault of the innkeeper or any servant in the innkeeper’s employ.

This liability however:

(a) extends only to the property of guests who have engaged sleeping accommodation at the inn,

(b) is limited to one hundred dollars to any one guest except in the case of property which has been deposited, or offered for deposit, for safe custody,

(c) does not cover motor-vehicles or other vehicles of any kind or any property left in them, or horses or other live animals.

This notice does not constitute an admission either that the Act applies to these premises or that liability thereunder attaches in any particular case.
