    Is the £400 refund because they will not be able to use the hotel full stop and have to book one themselves.
  • Are there any nearby hotels where you could *cough cough* use their pools?
    I have done this a lot in Spanish hotels - if the pool in my hotel is full or too noisy try next door.
    (Although this will mean he will have to pay for his drinks).

    Yes I suggested this in a similar thread a few weeks back and was admonished for suggesting it because, apparently, everyone in Spanish pools uses towels supplied by the hotel and they will suss you quickly, which is clearly nonsense.

    But yes he won't be getting free drinks that way.

    Before abusing another hotel's facilities, maybe ask reception if they have an agreement with another hotel about gaining access to a pool.
