Very interesting castle, especially for a musician due to the connection with Haydn. Lots of stuff about him, although I could have probably done without the odd wallpaper in the Haydn rooms. Pleasant staff.

This is just over an hour from Vienna by bus or train ( expect to pay c 25 euros for a return trip by train - 2023 prices). Palace is c 15/ 20 minute walk from the station (slightly uphill) Lots of exhibitions and items of interest. I would strongly advise paying the extra and taking one of the guided tours, particularly if you are a Haydn fan, as you get into areas, that are less open and that are very Haydn related.

I had wanted to visit for about 40 years. The attraction was Haydn.
What a disappointment. Everything was awful.
The booking on line did not work properly and although I got a ticket for the next day at 10pm, the ticket I had received was for the day I had booked. No guided tour available.
The train journey was surprising. A very flat landscape and uninspiring.
The walk up through Eisenstadt was sobering. Very run down and a bit edgy.
The Schloss was badly organised and the Haydn 'explosion' was completely awful in every way. The objects were badly displayed, had little authenticity and set within atrocious decor. If you are interested in Haydn and his music please do not go.
The Schloss exhibition was a random collection of items from the family. It made no sense, was badly organised and I could not wait to leave.
The redeeming features:
None, although the lady in the shop who sorted out the ticket was helpful.

We have visited the castle several times and were excited to see if there was anything new. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. You can see the state rooms and the wine museum as well as the Joseph Haiden Museum, and the Linda exhibition is still the same. There was nothing new. But the entrance fee has gone up considerably (19.-)
