Dear Michael
I am very happy to have the help of Travel to Fairs ltd!
They found a good hotel – good value for money - although it was very late
Many thanks
Many thanks to Mr Tom Parker from GoFair throughout the whole process of searching for a suitable hotel. The hotel is located perfectly good- just 10 minutes walking up to the Messe, or several minutes by train. The interior layouts are also very good. The rooms are spacious, comfortable bed, shower room etc...A good room service. The only minus there is extremely poor breakfast that really should be improved.
Great service, great people…
