From Our Guests

Please thank everyone involved with Saturday nights party. Each year we seem to have bigger and better parties and this year was no exception!

We just had our first meeting since the event and everyone was very happy overall. I really enjoy working with you and truly appreciate your dedication to your job.

Virginia

Our event last Friday night was a huge success and I couldn’t fault Shane and his team. Thank you again for your help to coordinate our EOFY party and I look forward to working with you in the near future. Please keep us in mind for any new up and coming venues, as we are always on the lookout. Have a great weekend.

Lucy

Well what a night.  We had an absolute ball.  In the end we had over 80 guests coming from all over Australia, our biggest turn out in 8 years.  We benefitted greatly from reminiscing with old colleagues and I am sure (knowing Navy culture) the Transcontinental did as well with the bar takings.  Thanks heaps for organising the space for us.  We will keeping this location in mind for future events which do happen yearly around the same time.  Also a big thanks to the staff for attending to our thirsty needs and in particular the young lady with weird Halloween contact lenses who took some group photo’s for us, her name eludes me.  Please pass on my thanks to your team.

I’ve been meaning to contact you to thank you for everything you and your team did to ensure our Trivia Night was a great success. We all had a really good time and people had so many complimentary things to say about the Trans (particularly the food – huge props to your kitchen team).

Lara Soldi

Just wanted to pass on my thanks to yourself and the staff at the Transcontinental Hotel for your assistance in organisation and preparation of our event, and for the smooth running of the event on the night. Having had very little experience in organising something like this, I really appreciated your patience in answering my questions, explaining run sheets etc in the lead up to the event.  Similarly, I also owe a big thank you to Alex for assistance on the night of our event, as well as to all the staff who were working the event who could not have done more to ensure our event ran smoothly. Our event was a huge success, raising over $2,000 for our chosen charity (Headspace).
