This was surprisingly lovely and wasn’t just a boring building as I had expected! We arrived at one of the first slots of the day and so it wasn’t too busy and we got in quite quickly! When inside there was a great museum section about the history and there were lots of photo opportunities. There was a gallery of movies and shows the building has been in as well. There is actually a King-Kong arm coming in to the building which you can pose with! When we got to the highest point of the building you can go on the views were amazing!! There was a flower wall where we could take photos and it was all lovely. The building is a great family friendly attraction and is actually great!!

We had a great time on the 86th floor. We were able to go at 8:45pm so it was still sunset. Great views of the city. We really enjoyed it.

On July 31st 2024 at approximately 130pm my family of 4 purchased tickets to go see the Empire State Building. We go thru check in and security all fine and the staff was very friendly. After observing the 86th floor, we went to go see the 102nd. I threw away our tickets not knowing to keep it and the Black/African older gentleman at the elevator was very rude about it, telling me to go look for it. Not guiding me after I told him we are first timers here. He answered my questions about getting a copy of our tickets extremely rude and impolite. Another employee saw this incident and help guide me and my family to the next step so we can have an amazing time and honestly any views is all the same from the Edge or from the Top of the Deck Observation views and the Empire State Building is nothing but the same. We decided to leave and not even cared about going up to the 102nd floor because of that one rude employee. Words of advice: RETRAIN YOUR STAFF ON POLITENESS and HOW TO TALK TO TOURISTS/VISITORS on when they have questions about their tickets.

Had a great experience at the Empire State Building sun rise experience. They allow you lots of time at the top and we were also provided with a hot drink and pastry. If you hate the crowds this is the best way to do it but it is on the expensive side as for 2 people it was £240
