"On behalf of the conference committee I wish to take this opportunity to thank Shantytown for the excellent service and quality of food that was presented at our recent function.  Our conference was a complete success and your professional approach towards catering and service played a large part in this."  Nicola Neame, Conference Convenor, Solid Energy

"The recent National Conference of @Home New Zealand (the New Zealand Association of Farm and Home Hosts), held at Shantytown, was a huge success, and this was in no small part due to service and venue provided by you and the staff at Shantytown.

I was surprised and very pleased to find how easy it was to stage a conference at Shantytown.  All it took was two or three brief meetings and the exchange of a few emails and the whole conference was up and running.  I am grateful for the helpful suggestions and guidance in organising the conference.  Any requirements we had were met!'  Kevin Piper, Conference Convenor, @Home New Zealand National Conference 2005
