We worked with Tom Parker at Travel2Fair and couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. He was most professional and responsive and wouldn't hesitate to use him again.

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.
Hi Michael and Tracy,
Thank you for follow up.
Was a nice hotel, although it was placed a long way from our originally booked hotel in the center of the city – so it had an extra cost for taxi’s.
Besides that we had some good days and the hotel was nice – we were all named Ronni, which gave som challenges as that is not our names, and they could not change the names at the hotel.
Best regards/Med venlig hilsen

We are very satisfied with the service provided by the hotel and your company's service. We are very happy and everything went well during the exhibition. It was pleasure to work with you and we would love to continue working in the future with you!
Thank you Tom.
All went very well. Thank you again for your assistance.
Kind Regards,
Dear Tom,
We had a good stay. The hotel is clean and people are friendly and helpful but it is really very old fashioned! The furniture and decoration 1970, could become very fancy again in a few years maybe? I recommend to take your own body wash etc with you while theirs isn't good quality. Breakfast is very correct Have a nice day and I will certainly contact you again for a next fair.
Best regards

Dear Tom,
This was for A+A 2023. Your customer service is very good. Fast, nice and polite. But the price per night seems quite high...
