GBA wonderful musical experience It was a great musical experience, music rendered by four talented young women, set in one of the most beautiful opulent rooms in the world. I will always think of this evening in Salzburg in the marble hall of the palace listening to Mozart being played in his own city, fond memory of which will linger on for a long time to come.

ATRoyal Orchestra Venue Deception While order and getting our seat was easy enough. The advertised event was far from what we actually experienced. We went and saw the Vienna Royal Orchestra. All advertisement was that the venue was supposed to be in the House of Industry or Niederoesterreich Palace.; however, after getting our tickets and arriving at the address it turns out the venue is now a school gymnasium (I wish I was making this up). While the quality of performance was decent, it doesn't nearly make up for the 59 euro/person we paid based on the website images. Will be contacting for any reconciliation. Have another concert tomorrow....cant be worse can it?

GBDreadful pre concert meal We booked a package with pre concert dinner at the Grand Hotel Wine and concert at the Musikverein with the Vienna Mozart orchestra. We had an execrable meal in the 1870 restaurant terrace at the Grand consisting of watery soup followed by chicken thighs in a tired room with poor service. The concert was musically very good although the seats were hard and the lighting uncomfortably bright. Enjoy the concert, eat elsewhere

ATTwo splendid evenings... We experienced two evenings with Vienna Concerts on a recent trip to Austria, once in Salzburg and once in Vienna. On both evenings, we were well looked after and the meal was most enjoyable but it was the music which made the evenings special. This is particularly so with the Mozart concert in Salzburg.

HRClumsy administration. Excellent concert As indicated in your preamble, this rating is given only to the administration of the concert. I booked in advance, and printed what I was stated to be an e-ticket. When we arrived, we found we had to queue, so we could receive another ticket after handing in the original. This took some time. We were told that unless we had the second ticket, we would not be ‘in the system’. I am not able to stand for long periods and there was nowhere to sit while my husband obtained the second ticket. I consider this to be terrible organisation, although the staff were polite in the circumstances. Fortunately this experience was not carried through to the concert itself, which was memorable.
