The Lucerne Hotel will accept packages for all arriving and in house guests. Packages should not be sent to the hotel until three (3) days prior to guest arrival. All packages should be addressed to the guest whose name is registered on the reservation. Packages that are received without a matching name to a reservation will be returned to the sender.
All guests who are tax exempt will need to bring their New York City and State Tax Exemption forms fully signed. These forms may also be faxed directly to the accounting office at (212) 362-9531 with the confirmation number and name of the guest. In addition to providing the tax exempt documents, the tax exempt organization must pay for the stay in order for it to be tax exempt. This can either be prepaid with the organization’s credit card (credit card authorization form required) or a check can be sent from the organization at least 10 days prior to check-in. We would then apply payment for the room charge and set up the tax exemption in the hotel system so taxes do not run.
If the stay is not prepaid and a guest claims tax exemption at check-in, they need to present the tax exemption documents and the exempt organization’s credit card that belongs to the guest.
If the guest paid on their own without a tax exempt form or pre-payment on arrival, then the guest will have a 90 day window after check-out to present proof of tax exemption and payment from the organization (credit card authorization form required). Once we receive it and the payment is applied, we will refund the guest’s charge in full.
