hotel

week and returning four days after that. We prefer to have two cosy and comfy air-conditioned rooms with access to beach views.
In addition
, each room should be provided with a hot water supply 24 hours. We are not looking at luxurious rooms. Can you let us be informed of the rent incurred for standard rooms, please?
Moreover
, we like to be engaged in some activities adjacent to the
hotel
. Do you have indoor games available for kids to get engaged? We hope that the
hotel
has a bar attached restaurant.
Although
we prefer to stay indoors, we sometimes like to hang out in some picturesque places beside the
hotel
. We are looking forward to seeing a detailed email from you elucidating all information about your
hotel
and answers to the questions we put forward.

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
