They suited our meeting needs perfectly and the staff and room set up was very professional. I suggest that you specify any catering requests as our morning tea was not really touched by attendees – cheesecake was an odd choice for morning tea and in hindsight we should have requested a savoury item.Oventus Medical LimitedOventus Medical Limited ★★★★★ Phillip G BirkettPhillip G Birkett ★★★★★ Great facilities, lunch room well stocked with coffee machines,tea options. ..snacks and lunch were plenty .

The venue was great and the staff were awesome, they were SO helpful and incredibly quick to assist with all our requirementsOnly small problem was that we had intermittent issues with the public wifiJenny BrookesJenny Brookes ★★★★★ Booked the venue for a workshop last week. I have presented there before. The staff are always really helpful, the food is good and plentiful and the rooms are set up well. Plus for the CBD the low price is also a deciding factor. Very happy with all the above. One problem that I hope they attend to is the disabled bathroom facilities. I have presented there in a wheelchair and a participant this time was in a wheelchair. The only toilet is nowhere near the conference room and very difficult to access. For somewhere offering so many rooms they need to better cater for people with disabilitiesKaren SKaren S ★★★★★ James MillerJames Miller ★★★★★ James MillerJames Miller ★★★★★ Dave PerryDave Perry ★★★★★ Great facility.
