Original Hôtel and very nice.
Hello,
Thank you for your email and services. Indeed my colleagues have come back and are very satiesfied with their visit.
Also we have learned the lesson and knowing that we may be going to the IBC2020, we are thinking of making a very early booking. Is that possible?
What options you can provide, it can include the Olympic Hotel, as they were satisfied, but also other similar options close to RAI.
Looking forward to your answer,
Ieva
Dear Tom,
The trip went quite well. We only had one issue because our team was late for the check in on Friday and they couldn’t reach the hotel by phone.
There was just an answering machine in German and that was not useful, but they had no problem checking in in the end.
They’ve told me the hotel was nice and everything ran smoothly so thank you for all the support.
Best regards

Dear Ellie,
Motel One was very appreciated by my colleagues, but it’s really early for us to consider any options for next year.
We will likely start to make the necessary arrangements during Summer.
