Visibility never great in stalls that aren't raked. Seats pretty hard.

Very good unobstructed view. Great seats.

We could see the majority of the performance, but I knowingly purchased restricted view seats, so these were as exactly advertised.

Seats not so good. We were 5 seats on the end of row E. 3 of the seats had very limited visibility of key parts of the action as they are under the balcony seats above and have an obscured view of the stage.

even though we were at front side seats could only see 75 percent of stage

A bit difficult to see as there was a lot going on on the left of the stage - we were stalls left

It is worth double checking that you have good visibility from your seat. They are a bit hard by the end but not enough to worry about.

I had two separate full priced seats but the box office staff got us two excellent ones together. They made our evening. Thank you so much Mr Aladin 😊

View of the stage was perfect but seats K16 and 17 were very uncomfortable.

Some of our group of 5 found them uncomfortable. I thought they were fine

The stalls weren't too full when we visited, so it was possible to box and cox the seating to get a good view of the stage. However, there is not much rake, so to try to avoid sitting behind a six footer.

We were in the middle at the sides of the balcony and there was restricted viewing. 1/4 of the stage was obscured.

Wilton's Music Hall is a wonderful place, full of atmosphere and small enough to be intimate with the performer. We were two rows from the front, on the side; we were warned that there was a column that might obstruct the view, but it turn out to be a spindly upright that interfered in no way. There is a balcony, and honestly, I wish we'd been up there, not because it would have made the performance better, but because it just looked so magnificent, and would have afforded a better view of the hall itself. Honestly, I can't imagine a better venue for this production--the shabby chic interior was perfect for the memories of a by-gone era. There is a small bar as well, but we didn't partake there. An amazing night.

We were in AA up in the balcony. We like it up here even if you have to lean forward as there is no one in front of you.

Booked late and right on the edge of row F. Not bad but would have been more central out of choice

We sat in row C - very close to the stage. In terms of position, they were ideal for a great view of the stage. The only reason I rate the seating at 3 stars is because the chairs are so very uncomfortable and, because they are linked together, they are also squashed too close together. I was glad the show was only 1.5 hours long for that reason.

The balcony seats were fine, we are both tall ladies , I dont know if it would be so good for anyone not so tall. W were in the balcony seats facing the stage and the stage view was very good.

We were in the middle of the 2nd row and, as the stage was quite high, we did get a stiff neck and I would recommend sitting further back.

Great view! Just slightly uncomfortable chair!

My seat was next to restricted view: ie full view, full price; but with no sight of the live musicians, and missing B when she moved about; I feel that these seats should also have been marked restricted and therefore reduced. The live music and 'smoky' atmosphere was integral to the show and it was a shame to miss it all.

Whilst the seat was exceptionally good value compared to usual London prices, it was not the most comfortable I have sat in, but the view was excellent.

We chose to sit up in the balcony on this occasion, just to get a different perspective on the architecture of the place. Actually, the seats are more comfortable and more spacious up there, so it was a good choice.

Balcony seat on side - not great but only ones available. Softer seat this time which is great. Love love venue but always busy when trying to get drink/something to eat.

Quite hard and very close together - but play was sufficiently entertaining to render this a minor complaint

We were in the gallery and at the side, so did need to lean over, acoustics not brilliant from there, suggest centre seats if you can

Under the balcony meant that occasionally the acoustics were not perfect and the odd word could not be heared clearly.

The seats were the only drawback to the evening - it was like sitting on a box without any cushioning.

Rows M and N of the stalls are old benches with four allocations to a bench. This is fine for a mix of adults and children or small adults but not for 4 full sized people! By the end of the first half I had a really painful back and neck from having to sit in one (fairly uncomfortable) position for and hour and a quarter. Fortunately, for the second half I was able to transfer to a seat in a wheelchair position which hadn't been sold so was absolutely fine from then on (as were the other 3 occupants of the original bench seat). There was also a small issue of the sound from the rear speakers in the hall (above the bench seats) drowning out the dialogue from the stage a couple of times.
