Verified reviewexcellent

The Venue was absolutely amazing, the staff were so accommodating and so helpful. From the front line staff right through to the security and maintenance staff were friendly and inviting. Not only did the venue exceed the expectations that I had they blew it out of the water and i will definitely suggest it to anyone looking for a venue and will definitely be sure to use the venue in the future

We had our first Conference for Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalys-South Africa at venue.Our people with wheelchairs had easy access all over the venue,which is great most places do not have it.Feedback from attendees,doctors and commercial representatives that the food was top class most places do not serve a wide variety.They also commented that the staff in venue everywhere was very friendly and helpfull.I would utilise venue again and recommend it to others.
