Hi Ben,
We all loved the ZT The Golden Hotel Barcelona.
It was a very good stay and we would choose it again if we would go to Barcelona.

Good morning,
Thank you very much for your services. We were very satisfied with the hotel.
The only problem was the lack of parking - we had to use offsite car parks. We need to take this into account in our future arrangements.
Pozdrawiam / Best regards

Dear Megan,
The hotel all in all is good. Rooms are fine with good beds and bathrooms. Breakfast is very good for a hotel of this size. A small thing, but it would have been good with more English speaking TV channels.
It is ok to use public transports to the exhibitions ground, but it would have been even better to have a similar hotel along U78 north of the city centre when exhibiting at the Dusseldorf Messe.
Best regards,
Ingrid/Group Marketing Manager

The Hotel receptionist man, Swen was very very nice to me, more than helpful and was a real pleasure to deal with him. Alexandra, his colleague also she was very nice, even tough I only deal with her for several hours, before I left the hotel , back to Romania.
