It's that time of year again! The time when staff with five or more years service are rewarded for their loyalty at our annual Long Service Awards.
This year was a record, with 60 staff members invited to a Champagne and canapés reception, in recognition of their service to Ashdown Park and Elite Hotels. Those reaching a 5 year milestone each received a celebratory gift. The awards were presented by the Managing Director of Elite Hotels, Graeme Bateman.
