WELCOME FROM THE MD

Executive fun

Members of NH The Lord Charles Executive Club got together on 17 November 2011 for their final cocktail evening of the year – as usual, the evening was a mixture of relaxed banter, laughs and warm company, and a great time was had by all.

NH The Lord Charles is tops!

We were very pleased and honoured to receive a Tourism Award from the Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry at the recent 2011 Annual Business Awards.

The Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry is an internationally recognised service organisation that provides information, training, business opportunities and representation to its members. The Chamber hosts numerous networking events throughout the year, where members can meet up and talk business – no matter how big or small. It is also the first point of contact for international businesses in the Western Cape.

Join them for the final event for this year on Thursday, 15 December, with Muratie Wine Estate.
