Nick Lloyd is very helpful, and friendly. He replies to questions quickly and informatively. We did not end up booking anything due to other reasons, but I would recommend Nick Lloyd to anyone wanting to book accommodation for conferences.
Hi Tom,
Just a short note to thank you again for your assistance with accommodation for the guys – they had a good trip.
Now… to plan in advance, can you possibly help us with rates for hotels, preferably closer to the fair, for 2025. 3 rooms, single occupancy please.

Very pleased with your help. All went very well. Nice and clean hotel.
All went well. The hotel rooms were very small, but the staff friendly and the breakfast was very fine.
Hi Jack,
The vicinity of the hotel was excellent and the people were friendly enough and the room was clean.
I did miss no air conditioning and there was only 1 power point which was nowhere near the desk which seemed strange.
The service from Jack was perfect and he kept me informed all the way so if I come across again I will use you guys again.
Regards,
Steve Turner

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!
Convenient location to the Messe Duesseldorf and to the Airport. Next to the KAMPS bakery who opens at Sunday morning.
Dear Ellie, Thank you for your assistance. The Hotel you suggested was fine for my son and collegue, Szabolcs Török. He was satisfied. It would be a good hotel for him for the next Frankfurt Book Fair. Best regards on behalf of Szabolcs, too, Margit Gruber/DS Budapest Kft
The hotel was perfect with reasonable access to Messe Frankfurt. The rooms are new and clean and very ergonomic. The best breakfast that I could ever had.
Dear Christine,
The Novum Hotel Madison Düsseldorf Hauptbahnhof was fine: good service, large rooms and bathrooms.
A bit old-fashioned and a 3 star hotel in my opinion rather than 4 stars.
Breakfast was fine.
Best regards
Dear George,
Thank you for the assistance!
I am happy with your service and plan on using it again.
Kind regards,
