Conference · 250 guests
The staff were welcoming and helpful. They were attentive to our requirement on the day. Prior to the event, there was clear communication maintained between the event manager and the key links from our organsiation.
We needed access the previous day for 4 hours and it proved very expensive. Perhaps a better package would have been helpful.
