Hi Tom,
Thank you fro getting back to us. We had a great time at the Park Plaza Vondelpark. Service was good and the rooms were clean. The only two thinks we were quite surprised about was that there was almost no light in the rooms and that there were no parking spots exclusively for the hotel. Thank you very much again for your great support and flexibility! We are looking forward to working with you again in the future.
Best regards,
Kathrin Sauter Head of Marketing & Communication
Dear Tom,
As usual, you helped us a lot to solve the changes in our bookings. It was an excellent job.
As for the Hotel Flandrischer Hof - it is a good hotel with normal services, biggest advantage is the little distance to the fair area.
