Empire State is a stunning, gracious 'old lady'. The exhibitions and film clips are interesting and give a great insight to her construction. I especially loved the King Kong corner and the movie clips from movies based around the building. The employees also deserve a mention - they are great!

It was very well organized and you could get some amazing informations about the surroundings and its history. We really enjoyed it and it's worth visiting.

The Empire State experience is just that, an experience and not just an elevator to a floor with lookouts. The dynamic displays and historical information is a worthy complement.

First time going all the way to the 102nd floor. Have been to 87th three or four times before, as far back as summer 1965 while attending the World's Fair. ESB is my favourite building in the world!

Me gustó mucho el archivo histórico que forna parte de la muestra. Es muy buena idea mantener vivo el recuerdo de los orígenes del edificio así como también recordar la ciudad de primera mitad del siglo 20. Ciudad y edificio crecieron juntos. Muy bueno todo. No puedo dejar de mencionar la amabilidad del oersonal, siempre listo para guiarnos.

I loved the tour of the Empire State Building. What I didn't like was the fact that the tickets kept disappearing from the Headout App. I had to keep going in (at least 4 times 0 to bring up the tickets based upon my invoice number. Good thing I brought that piece of paper with me or else I would have been shut out of this experience. Why didn't my tickets remain on the Headout app after I put them up there? I've never had this issue with other ticket apps in the past.

The first person I dealt with refused to allow me to charge my phone, so I could locate my tickets in order to access the venue. The person was wearing a uniform and was completely unprofessional when I arrived. The second person, also in a uniform, was rude on the 86th floor, when we asked for directions. I paid for both observation decks and was not impressed by the customer service of the guides at the elevators. I loved the views from the top deck .

All the employees were very friendly. It is not only a viewpoint but a museum that shows the construction of this building in a pleasant and entertaining way.

It was amazing. I've been during the day but be er at night. Let me say that the city lights from the Empire State look absolutely stunning. I highly recommend.

The visit itself and the overall experience were fantasic - an iconic buiding steeped in history and legend. The views were superb and we preferred this to the Rockefella buiding. Only issue was - I bought "skip the queue" tickets but they actually didn't - they just "skipped" going to a machine and buying tickets - so actually for me, no value whatsoever - despite extra cost. This should be made clear on purchasing websites.

Everything very fast and expeditious. The visit to the US was very good and the trip was very agile. Just be prepared to go through an airport check point. Best not to carry bags or anything. Dress warmly.

Love the building but workers rushed us through to get to the top so we weren't able to enjoy the experience as much as we would have liked.

We got tickets ahead of time and didn't have to wait. It was a little foggy the day we went, but still could see a lot.

It was an amazing experience just being able to see such a beautiful place. We were told it was not open on the top & we could reschedule our tickets due to the weather but we decided to stay & do our tour. The lady there was kinda harsh in her time of voice though. Ended up that it was open by the time we saw everything & we were able to go outside. Overall great experience

Ticketing experience was very easy and convenient, and we really enjoyed the empire state building. It would have been better if tickets were available for the 102nd floor.

Loved visiting this iconic building and seeing/reading all the history behind it. Views from top were 👌🏼 and heaters outside were an added bonus 😁
