Dear Nick,
I'm sorry I could not answer the phone. I was not in business last week, so I'm in a big crowd.
He wants to thank you again for your accommodation.
In Frankfurt, we were very nice. The hotel is close to the fairground and the city center. Rooms are very nice, clean and neat.
Frankfurt is arranged. I hope we stay in touch, and maybe we will be back together with the accommodation
Great regards, Amela
My colleagues were satisfied and the position of the hotel was fine to reach the fair.
It wasnt a top standard hotel but for the price we paid and the quality we received we are okay with it.

Hello Megan,
Thanks for your mail, I see you are “monitoring us”, like CIA / FBI …. J J J We have positive feedback about Euro Park Hotel, all went fine, as scheduled. Anyhow, no problems, we decided to confirm in advance and it is OK, it was our decision. Hotel people were good and friendly, rooms clean, hotel in general was OK. Maybe just a little remark: missing real coffee, maybe better coffee maker is appreciated more (the one available was not good…..but this is our taste, maybe others are appreciating).
Keep in touch Megan,
Bye now, Enzo
Price / quality ration very good, spacious and clean room. Breakfast simple but more than enough. Nice lobby and friendly staff. Only negative point is the noise at night in the rooms facing the street, very difficult to rest. I was lucky to face the interior areas but my colleagues had trouble sleeping.
Dear Brian,
Thank you for your email and please note that we have been very happy with accommodation during ITB.
With very best regards,
Matea Jeric
Executive director Perfecta Travel Croatia
All went well, we liked the location of the hotel, right in the historic center of the city with many restaurants around, no problems at check in!
Good day Megan,
Thank you, we were delighted with the hotel and its proximity to the fair,

I recently used Travel to Fairs to help me search for a hotel for a group of colleagues attending Bauma 2022 and my whole experience was very positive. Michelle Adams, my agent gave some very good suggestions and options for hotels near to the venue and in the centre of Munich. Michelle's communication with me was excellent and always very helpful. I would highly recommend t2f to anyone booking for an event.
Dear Tom, Dear Tess,
Thank you for your service, all went well. The only remark is that the hotel does not dispose of many parking slots, so we might reconsider it for next year.
Thanks
Best regards,
