Can victoria Hotels supply a cot or crib for my room when I travel with children?

Pre-authorization of your credit card is technically a "hold" on your credit card credit line from a purchase placed there by a merchant (such as any victoria Hotel Group hotel) who has initiated a charge, but not completely processed it. When the merchant finalizes the transaction process, the pre-authorization amount will be replaced by an actual charge to your card. Important points: Participating victoria Hotel Group hotels only accept credit cards for pre-authorization. We swipe your credit card at check-in to ensure that sufficient funds are available to settle your final bill –- and we hold this amount throughout your stay. The amount we check for will depend on the length of your stay and which hotel you are residing at. The member of staff checking you in will explain this process clearly. No money is taken from your credit card, however, it will show as a pending transaction. The authorization of your card will last the length of your stay and it will take up to five days after your departure to be released. You can use a different card to pay your final bill. If you have any questions about pre-authorization, please inquire at the check-in area.
