Among the leading countries that participated in the edition were France, USA, UK, Netherlands and Austria.
TASTE 2023 improved upon the success of the previous iteration. It occurred as a live trade exhibition between the 4th and 6th of February 2023 in Fortezza da Basso. It did not feature coronavirus safeguards due to the removal of the country's pandemic restrictions. The iteration was attended by more than 10 000 visitants from over 50 nations, including over 7 000 trade ones and around 600 foreign buyers. They examined the wares of 538 exhibiting companies.
TASTE 2025 occurred as a live trade expo between the 8th and 10th of February 2025 in Fortezza da Basso. It presented the wares of 770 exhibiting firms. The event was attended by more than 12 300 visitants (8 500 purchasers) and over 600 media specialists.
The location of the hotel was great since it was all walking distance. Facility was not as nice as I expected but the maintenance was good enough. However, although I booked for the twin bed, I got the room with a double bed. Nevertheless, again, the location was great. There was a supermarket right next to it and a nice cozy cafe across the street. I would stay at the same hotel again.

Dear Megan,
Great news.
Comments on this hotel was that the location is perfect, design is interesting, but the Internet connection was horrible. Having in mind that we have all been travelling for a business purposes, this was a real issue. Anyway, thank you for your support and patience in working with us, it was a really big group to handle. 🙂
Over the next couple of weeks, we will review our participation in Hannover and decide on our next show. I will keep you updated once we have more information about our upcoming trip to Hannover.
Best regards,

Hello Megan,
Yes, I have been told by colleagues that the hotel was very good in terms of facilities, rooms and breakfast. The hotel was a great success, so close to the fairgrounds that they could go for a short walk. Thank you very much for your great choice 😊
Thank you!
All was fine at the end and we didnt had any problems. There were some delays with the bookings but Ellie fixed them.
The hotel was good and clean and breakfast good. We enjoyed the service provided by the staff.

all went perfect and smooth thanks
HI Christine,
I have just returned from my trip as I went to London after the fair. The hotel was great. Really close to the fair and easy to get to each day by walking.
We did really struggle to get taxis each night during the fair from the hotel to the city centre as there were no restaurants around the hotel. The hotel restaurant was good but expensive and you didn’t want to eat there each time.
Kind regards,
Jackie
Hello Megan,
Here is the feedback I got from the guests:
•Nice, clean rooms
•Breakfast OK
•Good parking facility
•Bar : no ice, red wine in fridge, white wine not chilled….
Very pleased with your services; always fast and to the point communication. Best regards, Heidi Van Haute Office Manager
Dear Tom,
the fair went very well and the colleagues were happy with the accommodation.
Only a small remark on Hotel Am Augustiner Platz: the position was wonderful, but my colleagues remarked that the rooms were not tidied up (they spent two nights there).
I thank you very much for your professional assistance and always kind and positive service.
Look forward to working with you again!
Have a nice day
