Managing Director Stephen Taylor states "The training conference facilities are superb with the latest range pf presentation media – essential in our nature of a training organisation. Our delegates are delighted with the high quality venue, the excellent central location and the conservation village of Melbourne. They also appreciate the climate control, comfortable/welcoming atmosphere and the fact that they can help themselves to a variety of quality branded teas, coffees and drinking chocolate – including Earl Grey Tea and Columbian Coffee. Our clients and delegates much prefer this superb self-contained venue, rather than the formal atmosphere and facility which the corporate hotels offer. We have used a variety of conference facilities over the years of varying standards. We were always unable to find a facility to meet our high standards and in an attractive and affluent village location with the required facilities. Consequently, we decided to build our own state of the art facility in the heart of the conservation village of Melbourne. All local amenities – shops, newsagents, restaurants, cafes, accommodation etc are within walking distance. The conference centre site adjoins the Melbourne Hotel/Bar/Restaurant (which we also own) and therefore delegates can take advantage of the facilities on offer and enjoy a well earned drink at lunchtimes or after the courses have finished in the evening."
