Red Lion Hotels Corporation (“Red Lion”) guarantees that our lowest rate, displayed exclusively on Red Lion branded web sites, will be the best online room rate for any Red Lion branded hotel (“We Promise or We Pay” Rate Guarantee). This guarantee applies to reservations for guest rooms at Red Lion branded hotels in the United States and Canada.  Red Lion branded web sites include, but are not limited to, www.westcoasthotels.com, www.redlion.com, and www.redlionrandrclub.com. For a claim to be valid under this guarantee it must satisfy all Terms and Conditions contained herein, and be submitted in compliance with the claims processing procedures described below.
Terms and Conditions

• If you find and advise Red Lion Hotels Corporation of a lower, published, available room rate that is viewable and bookable for the same hotel, for the same room type and amenities, and for the same dates and number of adults (the “Competing Rate”), on the same day of making a confirmed reservation of the lowest non-qualified rate (a rate that does not require a membership or a Government traveler) on Red Lion branded web sites (the “Original Reservation”), Red Lion will make each night of the stay associated with the original reservation (up to 2-nights), complimentary, and provide a $100 gift certificate to be redeemed at any Red Lion hotel for any future Non-Qualified Rate reservation (defined below) or service amenities (i.e., food and beverage) provided by the hotel.
• Red Lion Hotels Corporation will validate the Competing Rate within 48 hours of receiving the “We Promise or We Pay” claims processing form and notify you of the results through the e-mail address you provide. Because the claim must be processed before check-in, your reservation must have an arrival date at least 72 hours (3 days) prior to check-in. The “We Promise or We Pay” Rate Guarantee only applies to Competing Rates found on the following web sites: www.expedia.com, www.hotels.com, www.orbitz.com, www.travelocity.com, and www.travelweb.com (“non-opaque Online Travel Agency [OTA] channels”).
• The “We Promise or We Pay” Rate Guarantee does not apply to the following rate types: (1) Rates that are not publicly available, such as negotiated corporate or group rates; (2) Discount rates offered only to members of groups or individuals who meet previously specified criteria, including but not limited to AAA members, seniors, government employees, or Red Lion R&R Club members; (3) Package rates that include the room and other components such as travel, car rental, entertainment, and/or non-breakfast meals; (4) Rates negotiated for stay extending beyond 30-nights; (5) Rates that are available on auction web sites; and (6) Rates available on opaque web sites, such as www.priceline.com and www.hotwire.com, that do not disclose the hotel brand until the reservation is complete;(7) Additional promotional coded offers provided by that site as an additional discount; hereafter collectively referred to as “Qualified Discount Rate.”
• Rate comparison will be made net of any taxes, gratuities, or any other fees associated with the room rate (for those sites that place the charges for a 3rd and 4th adult in a separate section, or label an extra adult charge as a “fee,” we will make the rate comparison on that total which applies for the equal number of adults).  Rate disparities solely attributable to fluctuations and/or differences in currency exchange rates are excluded from the “We Promise or We Pay” Rate Guarantee (Note: Red Lion Inn & Suites, Victoria BC rates are quoted in Canadian funds on www.RedLion.com).

Claims Processing

• A claim must be submitted on the same day of making the original reservation through Red Lion branded web sites. An original reservation refers to the initial reservation made through Red Lion branded web sites and does not include modified or cancelled reservations.

The $100 Gift Certificate can only be redeemed against your total hotel folio at check-out in any subsequent stay to the original reservation, so long as it is within 6 months from the check-out date of the original reservation. If you consume less than $100 of goods and services, you are not entitled to a cash refund or a credit balance re-issuance.

• If you cancel your reservation after confirmation of an approved “We Promise or We Pay” claim, you forfeit all benefits associated with such a validated claim, including but not limited to the complimentary room nights, $100 Gift Certificate, and the credit re-issuance of the one night, non-refundable deposit booking requirement.
