Working with Michelle from Travel to Fairs is pure pleasure. We had the opportunity to cooperate on several trips to the fair and all the hotels in which we had reservations met our expectations. We feel well taken care of and we will definitely use their services in the future.

Our visitors for the event


Good Morning Tracy,
how are you?
Just a quick feed back about Gideon Hotel.
Excellent, confortable, good cleaning, lovely position in the center of Nuernberg, good connection with the exhibition center.
Katharinenhaus parking place for the cars was just round the corner 5 minutes walking. Very good.
Breakfast not so much to be honest.
Check in a little bit complicate after 08.00 pm.
Generally speaking it was good.
Thank you so much for your co-operation.
Keep in touch.
Best Regrads.

Great service, great people…

Hello George,
Everything went well, the hotel was okay.

Good morning Tom,
Bauma went well and the hotel was really nice and very well located! We will certainly give positive feedback.
Regarding next Bauma we would like to see the prices for Hotel Hoelzer Braeu but, since the next edition will be in three years, we need maximum flexibility regarding changes and cancellation.
We would also like to see other options so that we can figure out the various offers.
Thank you very much,
Have a nice day

Dear Ellie,
Everything went well, Hotel Montbrillant (4) is good.

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.
Regards,
Dave

Dear George,
Thank you for your e-mail.
During our stay at AXYHOTELS InnStyle in Milan, the hotel staff took great care of us. We were very pleased with the cleanliness of the hotel, its location and the free refreshments provided throughout the day. We would like you to know that if we were to travel to Milan again, we would choose the same hotel.
In addition, George has always been very attentive to us. We have been very happy to work with him over the years. He makes a great effort to solve all our problems and requests with the same courteous approach.
On behalf of our company, we sincerely thank you.
