The hotel was really really great and was located in a nice area and the place in general.

Breakfast was superb.

The Novotel was a comfortable, clean, modern and efficient location for attending the Ligna show.
Depending on the group attending the Ligna show, another option would be Hannover Old Town which is a short walk further and adds a historic German/European experience. Most evenings we walked to this area for dinner from the Novotel.

Dave

ADIPEC 2023
The service received by Mrs Ellie Stone can only be praised. She is professional, fast handling and 100% engaged in providing prompt and satisfying answers to customer needs and requests. All this in a very pleasant way. As to the hotel I chose, the location was great, the breakfast very nice, the rooms are quiet small, but clean and cozy. Only the bar should be looked at, as there is not much choice, neither in food nor in beverage. All in all a good place to stay during a fair.
Good morning Tom
About the hotel, since I have been there, and its not my first time in Radisson Blu Garden, it was super nice, kind people and good service, thanks. Very good choice.
Have a nice day
