Just a short sum up:

Motel One: Use this email address to book at Motel One:  berlin-kudamm@motel-one.com. Booking code word is “Photo Summit“. (I have booked at this hotel, and already have my confirmation.  At this stage they don't ask for your credit card number, they simply take your reservation. Buffet breakfast is included in the price. See the details of the confirmation here).

Hotel Ansbach:Use this email adress to book at Hotel Ansbach: info@hotel-ansbach.de The code word is "Norwegian Bear".

Hotel Air:Use this email address to book at Hotel Air: marketing@hotelairinberlin.de. Be aware, that you probably will get better prices if you book the hotel directly from the hotel website. You'll find prices and more info about the hotels in the posts below. If I can be of any assistance with anything, please let me know, and I'll do my best.

When you have booked, please let the rest of the group know by dropping a few words at the Hotel Booking Page.

Good luck with it :-) .

Best wishes

Knut

By the way, if you have some spare time please pass by my new blog on communication. It's called barebones communication. Go find out why. Here is how you navigate it. Lots of good stuff in there already, and some pictures. The blog is going to be quite extensive. You will do me a great favor if you pass the link around to people you know that might be interested. Thanks.

Hello The rooms will not be paid by me, but the individuals that book directly with you. Would that be ok? I also need to know if there will be any price difference if less than 10 people order rooms with you? Best wishes

Hello there 

I just visited your hotel, and had the chance to look at a couple of your rooms. Those were very fine. I have some questions: 

For the periode June 21 to June 24, 2008 I need about 10 single rooms. Alle with separate bathrooms. What will the group price for this be?  

And also: Would be be possible to use your breakfast room for short meeting in that periode. Are there internet connections at the hotel? 

I am looking forward to your answer. 

best wishes
