    The palace tickets were fine - the restaurant gives them to you. But the restaurant experience was terrible. I thought it was high tea but it was just three cookies, water and one cup of tea from a tea bag And service was as indifferent as possible. I placed an order for additional food and drinks and waited for 30 minutes and it turned out they forgot to put my order in and hardly cared.

    I arrived at the time slot chosen on headout which was 3:30pm. We had to go to the cafe first to collect the tickets, and they said we have our drink there and then proceed to the venue afterwards. At 4:30 we we started the tour and were told that there was only 30 minutes left for the tour???!!!! Some rooms we were refused entry due to the time as well. This is outrageous because we spent a huge amount of money on this only for it to be a 30 minute experience.
