Dreadful 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

Clumsy 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.

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.

The 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.

Bit more attention to detail and would be 5 stars Easy to use website with good information about the sort of performance you are booking. Confirmation arrived promptly and electronically. On the evening the arrangements seemed a little amateur eg allocation of an actual seat and while drinks at the interval were mentioned these had to be paid for. The invitation to comment comes with a "20 euro" gift voucher but mine actually says it's for 10 euros. For an extra few euros on the ticket price a glass of fizz in the interval could be included, and the front of house team on the night needs a little more training/support.
