Hemingways Casino (Southern Sun Hemingways)
Overview & Capacity
Hemingways is East London's casino-hotel conference leader - an 814 m2 pillarless ballroom to 750 cinema or 400 banquet, divisible in two, backed by a 120-room hotel, a casino, cinemas and the adjacent mall. It's the biggest single banqueting room in Buffalo City outside the ICC, and the Tsogo Sun operation runs it with tailor-made catering. The casino and mall handle delegate downtime without a transfer. B&W books it for a regional conference or awards gala to 400 where the entertainment-complex convenience closes the pitch.
