Hello Megan,
Thank you for reaching out! I'm pleased to inform you that the hotel at IFFA was wonderful, just as it always has been. We had a great experience there.
At the moment, we don't have any upcoming events in Frankfurt. Nonetheless, I'll definitely keep the name of the establishment on my list for future reference.
Thanks once again for your support and assistance. Looking forward to working together again!
Best regards,
Juliette
IFFA - 2025

Hello, My contact person was Tom Parker and our communication from the past year was just perfect. He helped us to book rooms for our whole team. When I had issues/questions, etc. Tom always replied immediately. He offered us several hotels, as well the Pentahotel where we stayed. This hotel was lovely. Personnel was very friendly and helpful, rooms were nice, breakfast was good and we had the opportunity to eat in our hotel for diner which was amazing after such a long day at the airshow. Had a very good experience and will certainly work with you again for upcoming fairs.
Kind Regards
