GBMisrepresentation I went to the Mozart house concert. The music was good - but it was not in Mozart's house! The entire purpose of the concert was the ornate decorations and history of the venue. Instead, we were in an abhorrently decorated modern room where they didn't even bother to unwrinkle the carpet the musicians were playing on. I have no recollection of them telling me it wasn't in the normal venue before purchasing - if they did, they must have sneaked it in somewhere where the customer doesn't see it. Awful rip-off, praying on tourists. It was hard to even enjoy the musicians when I was so disappointed I had fallen for their ploy like a shmuck - and then they have the audacity to charge for water in their swelteringly hot modern building that despite it's being at least fifty times younger than the actual building, does not have air conditioning. Better to call ahead and double-check everything before dealing with this vendor.

GBWe’d bought tickets online and… We’d bought tickets online and collected them at the venue on the evening of the performance . This was easy and straightforward. The actual concert was amazing - the venue is great and the performances of everyone was so professional. The underground back to our hotel was easy as well Vienna is without doubt a beautiful City and we enjoyed everything it had to offer - museums, Christmas markets, coffee / tea houses, the fair and Ferris wheel, ice skating, transportation, and food and drink very well priced. Can’t wait to return

ITThe expectation was very high ..... The expectation was very high for what the concert really was. I spent the past September 19 listening to the interpretation of "The Four Seasons" by Antonio Vivaldi and there was not a single minute in which the orchestra was tuned. Mainly, the first violin. He never tuned. And well, being a concert in the city of Vienna, the least one expects is a tuned orchestra. Very bad the concert.

GBGreat experience! Great experience! Finding and buying tickets for an event I was interested in was easy and efficient. I didn't realize I was supposed to print my ticket, which I didn't do before I arrived in Vienna. But the people at the event were accommodating so it was no problem! Really enjoyed the concert. I would use Viennaconcerts.com again!

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
