Interrupt constructively and keep the thread
Nachfragen, ergänzen und zum roten Faden zurückkehren
Distinguish a clarification from an added concern and postpone discussion without dismissing it.
A short interruption may be necessary to understand the next part of a presentation. The first colleague asks what Anreisezeiten means here. The answer separates expected group arrival from room readiness. The second colleague introduces a distribution problem, rather than asking for the meaning of the same word. The presenter acknowledges that concern and temporarily returns to her planned sequence. Ich nehme den Einwand auf is credible here because she later returns to it and assigns clarification. A polite delay alone would not prove that the problem has been solved. The lesson practises both the wording and the follow-through.
Darf ich kurz ergänzen?
May I briefly add something?
Bevor wir weitergehen, möchte ich den Begriff klären.
Before we move on, I would like to clarify the term.
Das ist nicht automatisch die Freigabe des Zimmers.
That does not automatically mean the room is ready for use.
Den Einwand nehme ich auf.
I take that objection on board.
Ich komme nach der Übersicht darauf zurück.
I will return to that after the overview.
Die Zuständigkeit muss noch geklärt werden.
Responsibility still needs to be clarified.

Anreise can describe arrival or travel to a destination depending on context. In this exchange the time window is expected group arrival, not guaranteed room availability. Zurückstellen is postponing a point, not necessarily rejecting it.
Bevor introduces a time clause with a final verb. Darf ich kurz ergänzen? requests a turn. Auf einen Punkt zurückkommen means to return to a topic. Einen Einwand aufnehmen means to acknowledge and consider it here, not to record audio.
Write 250–300 words in German revising the proposed hotel message and explaining your choices to colleagues. Distinguish group arrival and room readiness, state the unresolved forwarding issue, and formulate a brief response to an interruption.
