Incredible!

We couldn't decide between this and top of the rock but we are so pleased we did Empire State Building. It was higher up and we loved the Art Deco feel inside the building, the whole experience was brilliant!

Amazing!

We arrived on a Wednesday around 930 and there were no queues, the staff were friendly and very chatty and we had a great time up on the 86th floor. It was such a clear day we could see as far as the eye would...More

Excellent

The best view in NYC is in the empire state building to the north, South, East and West. The service was the best.

Pretty

I came with my school this past week. The view was super pretty, especially during golden hour and the sunset, and the atmosphere was very welcoming. The only thing was that it was very crowded.

Excellent view and great night show! It was amazing! The employees were so nice and kind that I was in love with all!!

It was great to go twice a day. The view at morning was glorious and at night there was a jazz man that makes the atmosphere so romantic despite the wind and cold weather!

We did not book Empire State Building in advance. We were not there at a peak time. I could see where it would help to already have tickets if there were long lines. I think the New York Pass depends on how many days... More

Hi, I booked online tickets to visit the empire state building in April this year. I got the online ticket as PDF via E-Mail. In the PDF I see the two tickets but I noticed that the QR-Code is partly above the printed letters, so the QR-Code does not stand alone at least the top part of it not. In the back are the printed letters. I wonder if the ticket can nonetheless be read from the scanners or should I order a new one? Thank you for any help.

I just bought tickets for me and my girlfriend for the Empire State Building, but there is "Ticket valid only for: Seweryn Nowicki" on both of them. Is it a problem? Should I buy another ticket only for my girlfriend?

Hi nowicki07, Thank you for purchasing tickets! If you will be visiting at the same time as your girlfriend, she will have no issues using the ticket with your name on it. We look forward to your visit!
