Usually not. The building is a commercial events venue and offers no regular tourist tours. It may open on heritage open days or rare public events, but planning around that is impractical. Check the concert programme if you want to see the chamber.
They vary. Some of what runs in Vienna's historic rooms are short visitor-oriented shows at high prices, and some are serious concerts for a local audience. Check the programme and the ensemble before booking, and the general rule is to avoid what is sold on the street.

A historic palace on Herrengasse in central Vienna, for centuries the seat of the assemblies of Lower Austria, and today an events, conference and concert venue. Its most important room is the Landtagssaal, an eighteenth-century Rococo assembly chamber preserved as it was, with ornamented walls and a painted ceiling. The room carries real historical weight: the provincial estates met here for centuries, and administrative decisions governing the region around Vienna were taken in it. A decisive practical point: this is not a museum. The building is a commercial events venue with no regular tourist tours and no published visiting hours. Getting inside means attending a concert or a public event held there. The music programme is the practical route: the palace hosts classical concerts regularly, and attending one gives you the historic chamber and the music together. The facade is free to see from the street at any hour.

Without an event there is nothing to enter — this is not a place you visit in passing.
