Question: Delegate, who planned to attend the convention of Political Party, reserved a room at Hotel for the seven days scheduled around the convention at the drastically reduced rate of $100 per night. The reduced rate was a special offer made only to delegates who reserved their rooms by paying $400 as an advance deposit for a full seven-night booking at Hotel.

Delegate timely paid her deposit. What statement is most true result if Hotel is destroyed by fire the day before the convention?

None of the above statements are true.

Delegate, if she comes to the convention, is entitled to recover from Hotel the difference between the price for which she contracted and the cost of her reasonable substitute accommodations at another hotel, regardless of who or what is responsible for the fire.

Hotel can escape liability to Delegate for breach of contract because its performance is impracticable, regardless of who or what is responsible for the fire.

Hotel can escape liability to Delegate for breach of contract because its performance is impracticable, so long as Hotel is not responsible for the fire.
