SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Sir / Madam,
I am a student at Mason College and I would like to enquire about the event hall that you own in the city centre.
My friends and I are trying to establish a weekly dance club session and have been on the lookout for a suitable location. The dance club will be focused on Charleston and Rock’n’Roll dancing, which are becoming increasingly popular at our college.
Having inquired at the city’s town hall, I have been given your contact information and would like to ask whether it is possible to rent your hall and what the conditions would be for this. We would need the hall every Tuesday from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. During public holidays and college semester breaks, the hall will not be needed. I would be happy to meet you at the hall one evening after my classes to discuss the possibility of this rental.
I hope to hear back from you soon with a positive reply.
Yours sincerely,
