A great help from Ellie. She really was very careful with our trip. The hotel is more a guest house that a hotel, but for our needs was perfect - in a quiet area, near to the tram station, near to a good restaurant. We got the boarding pass in time and everything was ok. Thank you!

Yes we are back from our trip and happy for you to pass on the below regarding Ashleys Gardens
We could walk from the venue to the Messe Dusseldorf exhibition centre which was a big advantage for us. So the location was key and a big tick.
The hotel is of course very old and the rooms are very small with no lift so up 2 flights of stairs with bags for everyone.
Restaurant is popular with the locals and often cannot fit you in for dinner and wont let you charge back to the rooms.
Staff are friendly and breakfast is good.
All the best.

Dear Megan,
I hope you are doing fine.
Thanks for asking: Vitafoods Europe in Barcelona was great. Although I wasn't there in person, I can share what my colleagues reported: It was a fantastic trade show, we had many visitors and a lot of good conversations.
Your support regarding the organization has been a big part of our success. Our team really liked the hotel, and your coordination with the hotel restaurant for the menu was very helpful to us. Once again, I sincerely thank you for your great support.
We look forward to receiving your offer and continuing the good collaboration with you!
