I teach and practice out of the Klaviergalerie a lot and have yet to find something in Vienna more convenient and as cheap for private lessons. The small rooms with one piano begin at only 2,50 per hour. The front desk service and online booking is great and the location is so convenient. Watch out for the 24 hour cancellation policy!

I wish there weren't any "through rooms" where people can actually walk through while you are practicing or teaching, but thank goodness these are only a last resort booking option for me.

Lighting is also a problem because most of the rooms don't have windows. However, I am a frequent booker and until I have my own studio, Klaviergalerie it is!

Need to register online to book rooms, could have better sound insulation, and AC in the rooms would be nice. Gets the job done though.
