We were certain that we made the right decision hosting our 10thanniversary in Istanbul. This is such an incredible and vibrant city which exudes lifestyle. We selected the Lazzoni Hotel as we felt it was very important, for our first event in Turkiye, that we partnered with a Turkish brand and they did not disappoint. The team at the Lazzoni Hotel is very well versed in the events sector and their expertise further assured a very successful night. This is testament to the high level of Turkish Hospitality. I wish to thank Mr Gurhan Sayar, GM of Lazzoni Hotel and his team for their efficiency and professionalism. We look forward to many more years in Turkiye!
