Hotel to repay BD4,140 after failing to deliver paid services
TDT | Manama After paying BD25,000 for paperwork that never arrived, two clients have won just BD4,140 from one of Bahrain's best-known hotels in a ruling by the High Court of Appeal. The hotel had agreed to arrange guarantor permits and temporary residency documentation. While the full fee was paid upfront, the services were not fully delivered. Represented by lawyer Essam Al Tayyib, the clients took legal action to recover the value of what was left undone. A lower court threw out their claim but the Appeal Court reversed that decision after Al Tayyib submitted a letter signed by the hotel's own representative admitting the debt and proposing a partial settlement. Judges treated this as an implied acknowledgement of both the contract and the amount owed. Al Tayyib argued the initial ruling failed to take key evidence into account. He referred to the letter dated 11 August 2024 which the hotel had never denied. Under Bahraini law, silence on such a document adds weight to its content.
