Beautiful space. Lovely acoustics. Always a good experience. The view i had wasn't the best but different and the sounds were just as magnificent. My biggest issue is the bathroom. It seems that maybe in some of the male bathrooms there are not as many stalls compared to the ladies.

First visit to this spectacular venue. The building is so beautiful and I'd definitely recommend anyone to visit. We prebooked the tour of the venue which we turned up late for and the wonderful Tom met us at the gift shop and gave us a short private tour before taking us to join Tony who was showing the rest of the group around. It was quite overwhelming how huge and beautiful the venue actually is. We got lots of photos and after the tour had a meal at the Verdi restaurant (wonderful - left separate review) then saw Brassed Off Live in the auditorium. Absolutely fantastic. The atmosphere was amazing, sound exceptional. All staff wonderful, polite and friendly. Toilets immaculate. £5 for 2 bottles of water in the bar (Card only) which we didn't mind. All in all a memorable perfect visit that we will never forget 😁😁😁😁

Wow what a place, would have loved to give it 6 stars! I'd never came here before and on this visit we went for a behind the scenes tour followed by afternoon tea. The tour was hosted by a passionate and really friendly woman. She was so knowledge and had an amazing memory. The afternoon tea was delicious, there was an amazing range of sandwiches, scones and cakes. Everything was delicious and good portion sizes. Even got cake to take home.

Finally got to see George Benson here after covid reschedule. Well worth the wait. Beautiful historic setting, large enough for a good atmosphere but small enough not to feel miles away from the action. In fact our seats were at the front behind the stage, interesting view as you see what the performers see, and we were cheering loud enough to get a personal acknowledgement! Fabulous performance, every song a hit you could sing along to, everyone was up and dancing. George Benson still has a wonderful voice and the band were great too. Must also mention Sunny War, a delightful singer who got everyone in the mood. Albert hall is a 10 minute walk from South Kensington tube and a great venue.

Designed, as the name might suggest, by Queen Victoria's husband, Prince Albert. He built it as part of the complex of museuns in the area - to encourage and enhance culture for all people. It still stands as a major player in the many theatrical venues in London. It is so much more than a concert hall and is regularly transformed into a venue housing dance, spectacular and theatrical events as well as concerts for all types of music. There are several places to eat inside as well as just beverages. The hall boasts a magnificent musical instrument in it's organ and is one of the most aesthetically pleasing and beautiful buildings in London. All levels of pricing allow everyone to be able to experience the splendour of the treats inside. Well worth a visit. Recommended.

The Royal Albert Hall is magnificent! It's huge and beautiful. I went for a musical concert and was in awe of its grandeur. It has different floors that lead to each side of the gallery depending on the seat you want to take. The staff are on ground and ever ready to help with directions. If you ever have the chance to visit, take the opportunity!

A place to visit at least once every year. The sound system in the building is very good, especially this Christmas event, which is audience participation and a great way to end the year. There is a convenient place to get in and out of your car. In good weather it is a nice walk through Hyde Park to get here. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas🎄💕
