We look forward to returning to the Hodson Bay Hotel in the near future.' Chairman, National Supervisors Forum (NSF), Nov 2009.
Testimonial from the Fianna Fail Conference Event in Sept 2009 at Hodson Bay Hotel:
"Thank you to all of your staff for the wonderful service you laid out for us all and the very good atmosphere you provided for us all once again.....the view from everyone that it was an excellent venue with excellent service and food and good quality bedrooms. The real focus of all the praise and admiration was the quality and the professional service which everyone of your staff gave everyone of us.... I have never seen such a high quality of service as was in the Hodson Bay for those few days - not alone just service but service with friendship and a smile and such a pleasant manner each one of your staff has... Thank you again Tim it was just a great success and such a revelation to everyone who stayed there." Letter to General Manager Tim Hayes, from Mary O'Rourke TD, Sept 2009
