Italian term or phrase: il buon lavoro svolto al fianco di
This is the first sentence of a marketing document directed toward hoteliers. It goes on to talk about several hotels and how they have used the services of this company to promote their businesses on the internet. The first hotel they mention is in Palermo, but that doesn't help me understand this sentence any better. I have tried to translate this sentence in a way that makes sense, but I am having a hard time. Any insight would be appreciated.

Explanation:
I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest changing it completely to something like:

Palermo is just another example of our immense satisifaction with all of our hard work along side hoteliers.

Perhaps not a great first sentence but at least it has the feel of the Italian sentence without being too clumsy and is a good starting point for you. Also, not sure about the "our" but you can decide if it's appropriate or not from the rest of the text or reword.
