This building makes a strong impression at first sight. Its architecture impresses with its harmony of forms and exquisite details - each element of the facade seems to tell its own story. It looks especially beautiful in the evening, when the lighting is switched on and the whole area is filled with a special atmosphere.

Been a long while since I have been set in a open pedestrianised square the building is very good. Met by courteous smiling staff who happily point you where you need to go. We were sat in the circle and had a good view of the stage and was able to watch a superb concert by Holly Johnson and his band. What made even more enjoyable was the leg room I have long legs and for once a venue that i didnt have to sit with my legs to my chest. Easy to get to and they have an agreement with nearby q carpark where you get a discount.

Fabulous venue. Never visited before-loved all the stained glass etc. The concert hall was really great- good sound, size etc. Holly Johnson and band were amazing. Brilliant night out.

Lovely theatre based in the heart of the city. Loads of eating places and bars outside so can get very busy at the weekend. Not a lot of interaction with staff as the set out of the theatre is clearly marked. Toilets are clean and tidy. Bar was busy but we were served quickly. Decor is beautiful inside and out. Cannot fault our visit apart from queuing outside and bag searching could be a nightmare on a cold evening.

Have been going to The City Hall for decades. Lovely building with great acoustics in main hall, lower Hall great for smaller events. Concourse is roomy and plenty of loos and bars, nicely refurbed a few years back, staff are always friendly and helpful. My one star is reserved because even though leg room is pretty good, the seats are fairly narrow, even for a venue of this size. Not the venue's fault, but changes in town centre have meant it's more awkward for performers to load in and out and it seems to have led to more dark nights as a result.
