An astonishing seat. The view was absolutely amazing. Occasional loss of view to left of stage. This did not spoil the enjoyment of the performance. The seats are bench style. Very hard. No armrests. There is a small backrest. Adequate legroom for a smaller individual. Wonderful view of the orchestra, which was a lovely bonus! Such great value and a fabulous experience.

Level 1 stalls circle at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden London. Superb view - almost level with stage. Easy sight of surtitles. You have to pivot slightly in seat to face the stage but totally comfortable. Could see all of stage.
Fantastic seat. Stage view is very good considering the seat position. Excellent tiered seating. Seat is padded and comfortable. No armrests. Sound was clear. Ample legroom. The auditorium was extremely hot. Would definitely sit here again!
Great seat, cheaper than its neighbouring seats in row A amphi due to restricted legroom. The restriction in question is a bar protruding towards your knees, but sitting with legs slightly spread solves that issue for people around my height (5'5").
Would have been a fine view had the director not blocked so much action on the front square meter of of the stage. Sound was good, balance was good, decent value for world-class opera. Extremely tight seating, felt worse than an Economy airline seat.
a pretty good view all around, on the top level so a little far away but sound is still good might miss out on some details if the performers come to the far front (may have to lean) in the corner but otherwise good view of the stage overall

Very good view, bang in front of stage. Quite limited leg room as with most amphitheatre seats. No arm rests but fairly comfortable.

No leg room! There’s a wood column right in front of this seat, takes up half the leg room. The view was great otherwise, and there’s a small bar just outside the doors for quick drink service during intermission.

Section Orchestra Stalls
View is much better than it appears from the photo
Very good seat, great view of the stage, just infront of an exit so not impeded by someone very tall right infront of you! Decent leg room.
Great view, comfortable and spacious
Section Orchestra stalls
Good view
Section 5D
Great seats. Pretty much a perfect view
Section Amphitheatre
Good view, slightly obstructed but worth the cheaper price
Was surprised by how much I liked this seat. It felt much closer than it looks and I could even make out the dancers' facial expressions fairly well.

Not bad

Great view and reasonable price. Not too far into the nosebleeds

Great seat to see all the stage
