1Overview

This Cancellation and Refund Policy applies to all hotel bookings made on https://www.stayyoo.com, our mobile site and the StayYoo apps (together, the "Platform"), operated by VPROVE SOLUTIONS PRIVATE LIMITED ("StayYoo", "we", "us", "our"). It forms part of our Terms and Conditions.

You can cancel any booking free of charge until 11:59 PM, two days before your check-in date. This is your free-cancellation deadline.

Before you pay, the exact deadline is shown on the Hotel listing and at checkout. It is also shown in your booking confirmation and in My Bookings. All dates and times are in Indian Standard Time (IST).

2Fully refundable and non-refundable periods

Each booking has only two periods:

When you cancelStatusRefund
Before the free-cancellation deadlineFully refundable100% of the booking amount (room rate and taxes). The convenience fee is not refunded
After the free-cancellation deadline, or no-showNon-refundableNo refund. 100% of the amount paid is deducted

The time we receive your cancellation request decides which period applies.

StayYoo's convenience fee, and the GST on it, is charged for the booking service and is not refunded when you cancel. It is refunded in full only if the Hotel or StayYoo cancels your booking, as set out in Section 8.

3Example

DetailValue
Booking date25 Sep 2026
Check-in28 Sep 2026, 12:00 PM
Check-out29 Sep 2026, 11:00 AM
Free-cancellation deadline26 Sep 2026, 11:59 PM
  • Cancel on or before 26 Sep 2026, 11:59 PM: you get a full refund of the booking amount. The convenience fee is not refunded.
  • Cancel after 26 Sep 2026, 11:59 PM, or do not arrive: no refund.

4Non-refundable bookings

Some bookings are non-refundable from the moment you pay. This applies when:

  • you choose a room rate marked "Non-refundable", where a Hotel offers one at a lower price; or
  • you book after the free-cancellation deadline has already passed. For example, a booking made on 27 or 28 Sep 2026 for a check-in on 28 Sep 2026 is non-refundable.

In both cases, the Platform clearly shows "Non-refundable" before you pay. If you cancel such a booking, or do not arrive, no refund is given.

5How to cancel

You can cancel a booking in any of these ways:

  • go to My Bookings on the website or app, select the booking and tap "Cancel booking"; or
  • email support@stayyoo.com from your registered email address, with your booking ID.

You will receive a cancellation confirmation by email, SMS or WhatsApp, showing the refund amount, if any.

6Changes to a booking

Changes to dates, room type or number of guests depend on availability at the Hotel. A change is treated as a cancellation of the original booking and a new booking at current rates. The cancellation of the original booking follows Section 2 of this policy.

7No-shows, early check-out and denied check-in

  • No-show: if you do not arrive at the Hotel and have not cancelled, no refund is given.
  • Early check-out: if you leave before your check-out date, no refund is given for unused nights, unless the Hotel agrees.
  • Denied check-in: if the Hotel refuses check-in because you do not have valid ID, exceed the occupancy limit or do not meet the house rules shown on the listing, it is treated as a no-show and no refund is given.

8Cancellations by the Hotel or StayYoo

If the Hotel cancels your confirmed booking, or cannot give you a room on arrival because of overbooking, a technical error or any other reason not caused by you, you will receive a full refund of the total amount paid, including the convenience fee. If you prefer, we will help you find a similar alternative Hotel, subject to availability.

We may also cancel a booking if we suspect fraud, or if it was made at an obviously incorrect price. In such cases, you will receive a full refund.

9Refund method and timelines

Refunds are made only to the original payment method: the same card, UPI account, bank account or wallet used for the booking. We do not refund in cash or to any other account.

StepTimeline
Refund initiated by StayYooWithin 2 business days of cancellation
Refund credited to your accountWithin 5–7 business days of being initiated

The final credit time depends on your bank or card issuer. If you have not received your refund within 10 business days of cancellation, contact support@stayyoo.com with your booking ID.

10Exceptional circumstances

In cases of natural disasters, government travel restrictions, or a serious medical emergency supported by documents, StayYoo will work with the Hotel to offer a refund or credit, even after the free-cancellation deadline. Such requests are decided case by case, and a refund is not guaranteed.
