Schloss Esterhazy
This tour introduces you to personalities from the past and brings their moving and fascinating stories to life. You will also discover the mezzanine storey, where the personal servants of the princess once lived. Another of the many tour highlights is the 17th-century palace chapel. The organ in the chapel partly dates from the time of Joseph Haydn and was regularly played by him.

The castle has a rich Hungarian-Austrian history. The tour was - monolingual German - professional. There was a wedding going on, so the Haydn Hall was not accessible unfortunately. The guide was genuinely interested in the histories of residents, Burgenland, its relation to the Empire.

Very bad: Despite waiting for hours, the highlight was not to visit the Haydn Hall because of rehearsals. We were not advised of this when making a telephone ticket reservation. Conclusion: One day and just under 50€ entrance fees for 2 people pointlessly screwed up. We can only clearly advise against a visit!

Nice day trip from Vienna. Beautiful village on the border with Hungary, Eisenstadt has a nice old town with period houses that are worth a walk. At the beginning of the "course", stands the Esterhazy palace, which is definitely worth a visit, would be better guided because the audio guides do not offer explanations in Italian (hence the reason for the 3 stars). It is very interesting to visit the basement of the palace that houses the wine museum. The castle does not offer furniture to admire, some paintings, some musical instruments, but not to be missed is the Haydn theater Visit a little disappointing because there are rooms that without a guide you can not visit. Date of experience: December 2024

The guide was excellent and happy to answer any questions. There was also an interesting exhibition on the history of Jewish settlement.

We were going to visit the castle at 2pm today. Without a guided tour it is not possible to join a Hungarian tour and gave us some DinA4 sheets. Unfortunately, the guide was very rude. She spoke German, but only used it to show us that we were disturbing. YOU couldn't even look at things from the description. Go to the next room, I want to show the group a picture here... She stopped where to explain. You can already go to the orangery... The same was closed today, or we got lost without a tour.

We took the castle guided tour and our guide was fantastic. She tried to provide as much info as possible during the one our tour. The building is nice. Ticket was 18 euro per adults

We booked the 1 hour guided tour. The guide proved to be a proven expert of the House of Eszterhazy, the European High Nobility and made the tour extremely engaging for our children as well.

Very nice destination near Lake Neusiedl. A visit to Lake Neusiedl on a rainy holiday is ideal. The tour of the areas of the castle and the wine cellar are absolutely worth seeing.
