Thanks to Tom who was a great help for us in finding an alternative hotel during the show after we heard at the last minute that our hotel was being used for refugee shelter. Every request for additional rooms was handled accurately and professionally. It is very pleasant to work with Tom.

Many thanks. The B&B Hotel was very nice actually. Fairly basic, but perfect for business travel. Clean, efficient and helpful staff, and a decent location overall.
Many thanks for your help.
Best,

Hi Tom,
The Mercure was a good hotel and we are happy with stay. It was a very big improvement from the terrible Comfort Hotel which I don´t you should recommend to anyone.
Best regards,
Stig

Enjoy Hotel well located and easy to join through the public transports. A little cold the 2 first nights according to our collegues but th problem has been solved with the heating. Great thanks to George and T2F for their help and kindness
Nice and comfortable hotel, very close to the exhibition.
Good day Tom,
Yes, we have checked out of the H4 Hotel Hannover Messe and we have already successfully returned home! Now there is a lot of work to do with the contact we gained during LIGNA.
As for the hotel, everything was great! Rooms were very clean, beds were soft! We really liked the pool and sauna which was available for the guests - it was a great relaxation after a long day at the exhibition! The only minor issue we ran into was during the check-in. For some reason our bookings was marked as to stay in rooms with one double bed. Thankfully upon our arrival the hotel was not full and employees of the hotel were quick to resolve the mishap with the beds!
Thank You for the great service and we will for sure keep in touch for LIGNA 2021!
All went okay, hotel was good and we were satisfied.
