HI Christine,
I have just returned from my trip as I went to London after the fair. The hotel was great. Really close to the fair and easy to get to each day by walking.
We did really struggle to get taxis each night during the fair from the hotel to the city centre as there were no restaurants around the hotel. The hotel restaurant was good but expensive and you didn’t want to eat there each time.
Kind regards,
Jackie

I had been looking for a hotel for our employees for the Agritechnica fair for a while.
By chance I came across the traveltofairs site and got in touch with George.
Very nice and clear contact and quick answers made sure that a hotel was booked very quickly.
Definitely more than satisfied and also the hotel was definitely okay! I will definitely contact traveltofairs in the future.

Everything was okay. Nice staff. Clean room, very quite place, no street rush, perfect breakfast. Not enough parking spaces but it was not a problem to park in the street few metres from hotel. Perfect hotel for few nights for business trips. Not far from Messe Stuttgart - only 10 minutes by car. Without any traffic.
