Terrible Dinner in Hotel Breakfast Area I bought 2 tickets for Dinner + Vienna Mozart Orchestra / 1870 Restaurant Terrace / Musikverein - GoldenHall. The 1870 Restaurant is on the top floor of the Grand Hotel Wien. When I arrived the staff told me that the restaurant was booked for a private event and to proceed to the 1st Floor. The staff seated us at their hotel breakfast buffet area. We had a choice of fish or chicken. I chose the chicken. The plate was brought to me with 3 chicken nugget size pieces of chicken thigh meat and a lemon half to squeeze over it. There was nothing else on the plate. I tried to eat it but it was too greasy. I don’t write bad reviews, but this was a total rip off. I paid a lot of money to have a nice dinner with my wife at a nice restaurant. What we got instead was seating in a loud hotel lobby and an entree that wouldn’t meet McDonald’s standards. They even charged us $9 Euros for the bottle of water we drank. The soup and desert were fine and we enjoyed the concert, but don’t buy the dinner!

Royal 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?

An amateur concert…disappointing This was very much an amateur concert in terms of the music itself with a range of ability of the musicians themselves, the cello player being the excelling musician. Whilst the booking process itself was simple, for the price, the standard of the performance did not meet expectations which was particularly disappointing as the tickets were a special gift for us. We had printed off the tickets but the venue had a record of our booking. The venue for the Mozart concert was beautiful and the room was warm. We were welcomed by the hosts.

Vienna Concerts May 2019 During my visit to Vienna in May 2019, I registered for 3 concerts through ViennaConcerts.com. All were first rate. Each had a unique setting/venue that only added to the quality and atmosphere of the performances. If you have the opportunity, be sure to see Mozart’s Requiem at Karl’s Kirche.

Two 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.
