All excellent. No hiccups other than the fiscality of access in adhering to the exact time of the attendants sending us back to the back of the line at 4:55 pm. It is true that the booked time was x 5 pm but the intransigence was not so taxing when the notices of impending closure started at 5:40 pm.

The range of art on show, the organisation of the display, including the information panels about the original use of the Palace rooms. The only negative was the size of font on the panels giving info on each painting. For those with glasses it was tricky to read some without leaning over the security rope.

I visited the Upper Belvedere Palace. It's a magnificent palace, the interior is a must-see (sublime architecture and very interesting works) and the gardens are also very pleasant. I highly recommend this place if you're visiting Vienna. However, some of the people at the reception desk were not at all pleasant.

A very good experience, buying tickets was quick and easy. The museum is vast and complete, and I don't think a guide is necessary.
