Booked your wedding but now the venue is closing? Wendy has some advice to help you out - a podcast by East Coast Radio

The Hilton Durban Hotel closed its doors last month, another COVID-19 casualty, and one of 1000 Hilton hotels to close since the start of the pandemic.

Jan Van Der Putten, who is Hilton’s Vice President Operations - Africa and the Indian Ocean, told me that it’s a temporary closure and that the hotel will re-open, but that doesn’t help those who’ve made bookings for events in the meantime.

People like Tracy, who booked a Hilton Durban function room for her February 13 wedding for 80 guests, and paid the hotel R28,690.

Take a listen to find out what Wendy has to say about this type of situation and where you should start in an attempt to get your hard-earned cash back.
