Thank you Max
We booked a theatre package for my mum`s 60th birthday through hotel direct. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances outside of our control, we were no longer able to travel from Ireland to England on the dates we had booked. Thankfully, we were able to speak to Max, who kindly looked into amending our booking, despite our late notice. He was a pleasure to talk to on the phone and was able to change our dates. We are so grateful for the help Max gave us and are really looking forward to our trip to London. Thank you Max!
Excellent package
This is an excellent package going to see starlight express show which was spectacular. The hotel was wonderful, comfy with great staff and facilities and right near the theatre at Wembley and the show seats were excellent and so well priced. The hotel direct staff are so helpful and courteous i would not hesitate to book with them again.
