1. Who we are
City Rooms by Hiive is operated by 15 New Street Trading Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 16973194), registered office Tudor House, 16 Cathedral Road, Cardiff, CF11 9LJ. The hotel is at 15 New Street, Worcester, WR1 2DP. Contact us at our contact form or 01905 964700.
2. These terms
These terms apply to bookings made directly with us through hiiverooms.com, by phone, by email or by message. Bookings made through third parties (for example Booking.com, Expedia or Airbnb) are also subject to that platform's terms and the rate conditions shown at the time of booking. The specific conditions of your rate are shown in the booking engine before you confirm, and in your confirmation email. If they differ from these terms, the rate conditions apply.
3. Book Direct benefits
When you book directly on hiiverooms.com at one of our direct rates (the 10% direct discount rate or the Non refundable rate 15% off), you get:
- Guaranteed early check-in from 1pm (standard check-in is from 3pm)
- Late checkout until 1pm (standard checkout is by 11am)
Free cancellation applies only to the 10% direct discount rate, as set out in section 6. These benefits apply to bookings made under these direct rates and are included automatically, with no code needed. They cannot be exchanged for cash or transferred to another booking. For guests who booked elsewhere, early check-in from 1pm costs £30 and late checkout until 1pm costs £20, subject to availability. See our Book Direct offer.
4. Check-in and checkout
- Standard check-in is from 3pm and standard checkout is by 11am, unless your booking includes the Book Direct benefits above.
- Check-in is by smart lock. We will send your access code before arrival to the email address and phone number on your booking. Please make sure these are correct.

- Staying beyond your checkout time without agreement may be charged at the late checkout rate.
5. Payment
