​

These Booking Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern all bookings made through the Skyline Penthouse instant booking form at booking.skylinepenthouse.com. By completing a booking and submitting payment, you ("Client") agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms apply to Productions and Off-site/Meeting bookings made through the online booking form. Event bookings are subject to a separate booking agreement.

​

1. BOOKING & PAYMENT

Productions and Off-site/Meeting bookings may be completed instantly through our online booking form. Your booking is confirmed upon receipt of payment and issuance of a booking confirmation email.

1.2 Payment Schedule

  • Bookings starting more than 14 days from the date of booking: a 50% deposit is required at the time of booking. The remaining balance is due 14 days before your booking start date.

  • Bookings starting within 14 days from the date of booking: full payment is required at the time of booking.

1.3 Damage Deposit
A Refundable Damage Deposit may be required depending on the total booking amount:

  • Amount equals half of the invoice total, rounded up to the nearest $500

  • Collected at the time of booking alongside the rental payment
