Dear colleagues,
thank you for helping me find a hotel for my clients. Unfortunately, the hotel was a little farther than customers expected, but everything was done without blame.
You may have the opportunity to collaborate and make more orders

Dear Tom,
I have already granted 5 stars. We received an extraordinary service and everybody was happy with the hotel.
We can organize the new group of rooms for the next year in Barcelona. If the Eurohotel is available, that is the option to pursue.
I look forward hearing from you, oh by the way. Is George back because I received an email from him. If so, please let’s continue with the planning for next year in Barcelona.
Also, do you have the Aloft Seaport in Boston?. That would be also an option for the SENA next year.
I look forward working with you again.
Have a great week.

Hi,
The average opinion of our people was: The rooms were really o.k., good bed, enough space etc., and there was an easy access to the public transportation. What they did not like was the poor breakfast. Further two of them noticed empty bottles on the room at their arrival, that have not been removed during their whole stay. That's no good room service.

Dear Ellie,
Indeed, our overall satisfaction was great as it was very close to the fair (walking distance 10 min max), with a decent breakfast and 24-h available reception.
The room was very clean and the bed was super comfy although it would be perfect if there was a table and chair. We got a free room cleaning service for staying every 4 nights.
The hotel was very close to the train station, and to a very big mall which has Carrefour and a food court. Easy check out as well.
Have a great day ahead,
Best regards,
Dimos Maligiannis

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
