Wonderful venue, rooms were had everything we needed. The staff there are lovely and helpful, at reception and the staff assigned to our rooms. The coffee machines available are great, as was the food. They catered to all our groups needs.

Excellent venue for meetings, food was very tasty and had so many options. Such friendly and respectful service, very quick to respond to any queries, and helpful in catering for specific dietary requirements.

Great for internal events, ie if you don't need to impress anyone like clients. We were in adjoining rooms1202 or something like that. Very low tech. No plugs for lap tops at the tables, no lectern and when it arrived it didn't have an integrated microphone, and the speaker's computer would slide off so they had to leave it on the table next to them and bend over to read. No lapel microphones so the speakers had to hold a big microphone the whole time. It's a tired old building but it's been tarted up well enough. The toilet seats have deteriorated and smell like old plastic akin to BO. Staff were great, food was pretty good, nespresso machine is always a bonus! Chairs were decent for a 6 hour day. Great location. Really well lit, so you don't feel like you're in a time warp.
