Swedish hoteliers give refunds to couples who divorce within a year of their stay
All the hotels require to make a refund is proof of the stay and a copy of the divorce papers
This hotel reckons it is so romantic, it can cure troubled marriages.
Countryside Hotels in Sweden has pledged to refund the cost of a weekend break if a married couple split within a year of their visit.
The couples have to book their stay online using the code “relationsgaranti,” which translates as “relationships guaranteed.”
If the couple then divorces within 12 months of their stay, they can then get in touch to reclaim their money.
All the hotel requires to make a refund is proof of the stay and a copy of the divorce papers.
Of course, the couple would already have to have made some inroads with their divorce proceedings when they booked the stay, in order to meet the 12 month deadline for claiming refunds.
The hotel chain hopes that any warring couples who do visit one of their venues while in the midst of a divorce might be able to work out their problems.
The chain is a collection of privately-owned boutique hotels across the country, in old manor houses and farms.
Petra Fagrell Jansson, who runs one of the hotels, told the the Swedish NWT news website: “Everyone needs a bit more time for their relationships and a little break from everyday life.”
