Once a credit card is lodged payment can also be made by WeChat.

All prices quoted are in NZ dollars.

Bond:  For all bookings up to three months a credit card is required to be lodged with Quinovic Viaduct in lieu of a cash bond.  This card is held in our system for the entire time of your stay and automatically deleted from the system ten days after departure.  Stays of over three months require a bond equal to 4 weeks rent which is held by the NZ Bond Centre.

Any extra utility charges will be invoiced monthly once these bills are received.

Additional charges relating to other services such as extra cleaning for excessively dirty apartments upon departure, lost keys, or damage caused during occupation will  be debited to the credit card which has been submitted for bond unless suitable arrangements have been made with Quinovic Viaduct.

By booking this apartment/townhouse/house (accommodation) I understand that if I default in my payment obligations to Quinovic Viaduct the information about that default may be given to Veda Advantage and other debt collection agencies whom may give that information about the default to other Veda Advantage customers or other Debit Collection Agencies.  If at the end of the tenancy there is a debt owed by the tenant then the tenant agrees to be liable for any costs of recovery of the outstanding debt, which includes the collection costs by the debt collection agency, legal fees, court filing fees and any disbursements.

Cancellation Policy

For a 50% refund, cancellation must be made seven full days prior to local check in time (2:00 pm) on the day of check in, otherwise no refund.

For example, if check-in is on Friday, cancel by Friday of the previous week before check in time.

If you cancel less than 7 days in advance, the nights not used are not refunded. If you arrive and decide to leave early, the nights not used are not refunded.

All apartments, townhouses & houses available are privately owned and sometimes can be withdrawn by the owners for personal reasons.  If this occurs Quinovic Viaduct will offer an alternative apartment of similar quality, facilities, and value.  If the tenant is not happy with the alternative offered Quinovic Viaduct will refund the rent in full, as long as the booking is cancelled prior to occupation.
