Hello George,
Everything was amazing at Anuga 2023, thanks for your support.
Anuga 2023
The hotel was really really great and was located in a nice area and the place in general.
The services provided by George were perfect and he was very friendly.
Breakfast was superb.
CPhI Worldwide 2023
Nice house and nice location to fair ground.
It’s very convenient that the supermarket is just across the street.
The host is also nice to help for transportation to train station.
Only disappointed that the electric kettle is not clean.
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 Christine,
I’ve appreciated your service and in particular your flexibility. We usually don’t know which staff will be attending our exhibitions until very near the time, and your flexibility with this is important to us and much appreciated.
The rate for the hotel was reasonable. It was near the upper end of our budget, but good value I think, considering the following feedback from staff:
“Hotel was fine, rooms were good and had no problems. Only potential issue was the limited parking, but this didn’t affect me last week.”
“Would definitely stay there again. Staff were really pleasant and helpful, food was good and the location was pretty good too.”
“I would stop there again no problem good rooms good food and good location for city centre.”
Many thanks again for your help.
Kind regards,
Rachel
Hello Michael,
Thank you for reaching us. I confirm that we received a very good service from Tom and also from the hotel. We will go back to Nuremberg Toy Fair next year.
Hi Christine,
your support and professionality has been very appreciated by us. Always available and ready to answer.
Hotel rooms were not that good at least the standard room was too small and old and very noisy as well; bed not comfortable. I guess that for that price at least superior rooms should be the perfect deal with an hotel like that. Good position close to metro and exhibition very easy to reach. As well not so far from center. Receptionists were not so prepared as they always ask to pay our already included breakfast and their german or english language wasn't always that good.
Hope for a better deal next time!
Hi Megan,
Thanks for your effort to help us arranging our exhibition hotel, and we appreciate it. Everything went smoothly and successfully.
Best Regards.
Dear George,
Thank you for the assistance!
We were very satisfied with the location and the service.
Thank you!
Hello Mr Turner,
we would like to thank you for the excellent recommendation of the Best Western Hotel der Fohrenhof * * *.
The stay was pleasant and we really appreciated the restaurant's cuisine: the opportunity to have dinner in the hotel was providential given the long travel time of just 15 km separating the hotel from the fair (45-60 minutes).
For us the exhibition was successful and we have already signed up for the next edition in 2026: any possibility for you to find a more convenient solution? Better if reachable on foot or well connected by public transport.
Thank you and best regards
