Can the hotel get compensation for power failure?

Legal analysis: According to our country's legal practice, it is very difficult to claim for hotel power failure, and there is no compensation standard for the claim. The most important thing is the reason for the power failure. It will be very difficult if there is a large-scale power outage in the power sector. If the power failure is caused by internal problems in the hotel, you can claim compensation from the hotel. In addition, guests can check out, cancel their accommodation contracts and ask for a refund. In addition to requesting the termination of the contract, you can also refund the room rate through an agreement with the hotel, and there is no legal basis for the rest. According to the actual situation and loss, make compensation and ask for a refund.

Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Article 577 Where a party fails to perform its contractual obligations or fails to perform its contractual obligations in conformity with the contract, it shall be liable for breach of contract such as continuing to perform, taking remedial measures or compensating for losses.

Article 590 Where the parties are unable to perform the contract due to force majeure, they shall be exempted from liability in part or in whole according to the influence of force majeure, except as otherwise provided by law. If the contract cannot be performed due to force majeure, the other party shall be informed in time to reduce the possible losses to the other party and provide proof within a reasonable time.

If force majeure occurs after the delay in performance, the parties concerned shall not be exempted from the liability for breach of contract.
