We were there for Hostex 2020 and the Barista Championship hosted by SCASA. The venue is grandly designed and I especially appreciated the art features. Very large spaces for exhibitions. Very professional and efficient staff

This is a huge center that has capacity for meetings and events of large scale and high complexity. Hosted Africa Investment Forum 2019 which I attended with about 2000 delegates and multiple sessions and networking running in parallel.

Conveniently located in the business city center in the vicinity of Gautrain station with a direct connect to JHB airport.

Conveniently located via a skywalk to both the sandton sun hotel and mall. Easy access via Gautrain. Waiters at banquet evening could have been friendlier and more attentive.

The venue is centrally situated, spacious and modern.
It would be helpful for a restuarant on site, especially when catering to huge amounts of people.
More attention could be paid to the cloakroom facilities.
More visable signage for area of the convention centre would be great.

This is a very specious and modern venue for small and large conferences alike. The sound proofing is brilliant. Once you are in a conference room, you essentially lock out the rest of the world.

The location is brilliant with the Gautrain station being a mere short walk away. The venue is surrounded by at least 6 quality hotels in every direction and is connected to one of Johannesburg's flagship malls Sandton City.

The staff are very helpful. This is definitely the best conferencing venue in Johannesburg. Well done!!
