Offering the best in bleisure With South Africans having to tighten their belts due to the VAT increase, it’s not surprising that a survey conducted by a local corporate travel agency has found that 50 per cent of business travellers who add a leisure component to their trips, do so as a way to have a holiday while saving money.
W
ith Midrand being located at the heart of the country’s economic capital, Tony Rubin, General Manager at Premier Hotel Midrand, has noted an increase in the combination of bleisure travel amongst guests. “While the VAT increase may play a part in this, I believe that it is largely due to our ability to offer guests the best in both business and leisure.” He explains that the centrally located property, situated only 24 km from OR Tambo International Airport, is equipped with four conference facilities capable of seating up to 280 delegates. “We also provide free Wi-Fi, a business centre and in-room work stations to ensure that corporate travellers can get their work done in comfort during their stay.” “Because all work and no play make for a dull time away, guests can take advantage of an array of activities and attractions both on- and off-site,” adds Rubin.
