Player from the Far East (Hong Kong): we are very impressed in the perfect chess event in Thessaloniki. It is one of the best experiences we have had. With the giant and very high ceiling, and classic and elegant venue, the amicable and helpful staff including the organizers and arbiters, the beautiful 5 star hotel while parents with young children can wait very comfortably in the comfy sofa, it is just impeccably well organized. We just hope more major chess events can be more like this so players from all over the world can truly enjoy playing chess and parents of younger children can enjoy the peace of mind as well. Thank you very much indeed -Enoch Chiu, Hong Kong
