Hotel Avianto
AREA
The sleepy Magaliesburg area seems to have skipped the surge of development which has occurred an hour away in Johannesburg. This area makes for a wonderful weekend getaway or a good place to host an event as your delegates too can enjoy the points of interest close by. The Cradle of Humankind is a World Heritage Site and well worth a stop. Also in the surroundings is the Hartebeespoort Dam which like to Vaal has become a bit of a playground for water sports enthusiasts.
​
DESCRIPTION
Nestled in the hills of the Swartkop Mountains in the serenity of Kromdraai Valley, Misty Hills Country Hotel, Conference Centre and Spa embodies the spirit of South Africa. Surrounded by forest and grasslands, this charming Johannesburg hotel is spread over 60 magnificent acres in Muldersdrift. Set on the edge of the Heritage Site, The Cradle of Humankind, Misty Hills is 25kms from Johannesburg and 15 minutes from Lanseria Airport.
​
Avianto consists of the Village Hotel, the well-known Banquet Hall with its charming and beautiful non-denominational Chapel, a magnificent Ballroom, the Fireside Room for a more intimate function, and the state-of-the-art Conference Centres, consisting of six separate conference rooms and a lounge. A magnificent Qolf Course and Club House and newly built Cafe Cielo complete the picture.
​
CONFERENCING AND ACCOMMODATION
The Hotel at Avianto is set slightly apart from the main function venues. The communal nature of the village is designed to connect people for the duration of their stay – not separate them into numbered cubicles filled with their escape mechanism of choice. The village by design makes each guest into an individual, living in a personal space with its own character and yet intrinsically part of a community, a team. This is a subtle but important message which will contribute positively to any corporate brainstorm and team bonding process.
​
The Village Hotel can accommodate 68 delegates in 29 luxury rooms and 5 suites.
Avianto offers you a choice of excellent venues to host your particular conference; Two Conference Centres as well as the Banquet Hall, Ballroom and Fireside Room can cater for small, medium and large conferences. The largest Qolf Course in the World along with a list of activities that will offer Teambuilding solutions to ensure your itinerary offers the perfect balance between work and play.
​
Avianto has built a solid reputation in the conference arena.
The village that Avianto has become is set along the Crocodile River in Muldersdrift. The ambience at Avianto inspires creative thought, camaraderie and positive action.
