When a quote is put together for Hotel & Guesthouse Insurance, we asses your business on an individual basis depending on a number of factors. If you have had claims in the past, we are still able to provide insurance for you, once we establish the whole picture of the risks involved within your business.

Setting in place risk preventative measures and procedures can dramatically reduce the chances of the claimed risk happening again.

If your business employs any staff, such as full-time, part-time, labour-only subcontractors, or even volunteers, then it is a legal requirement for your business to have employers’ liability insurance as part of your Hotel & Guesthouse Insurance package. This certificate of insurance should also be prominently visible or at least accessible electronically to all employees within your business.

Yes, we are able to provide this cover as part of your Hotel & Guesthouse Insurance package. Insurers will be looking at the type of stock you hold, the value, your business location, any security measures you have in place to prevent any unfortunate circumstances. These are some of the factors that can fluctuate the premium to protect you against these kinds of claims.

Regarding general contents, this would equal today’s market value of the items. For stock, this would be calculated on the replacement value to you as the business. This would depend on where you are in the supply chain and various other factors that enable your hotel or guesthouse to purchase the insured goods at your current rate.

The value of your buildings sum insured is calculated based on the cost of how much it would take to rebuild the property to you as the business, rather than today’s market value. This would include the labour and the materials, especially if you are able to source the required work at a reduced cost. Don’t forget to take into account other areas such as design costs, legal fees, professional advice, planning, site clearance and removal expenses.

We are not professional valuers and do not offer that service. We would always recommend that you obtain a professional valuation on a regular basis to ensure that the sums insured are correct, up to date and in line with market conditions to avoid any risk of “under-insurance” in the event of a claim, which could affect the outcome of any payment.

If you are in any doubt regarding the value of your home or possessions, then always seek the advice of an experienced and qualified professional – and if any changes are subsequently required, then contact your insurance broker and/or provider to ensure that the levels of cover are accurate and appropriate.
