Reviews
literally the coolest observation deck of all the ones i've visited. + most of it is indoors, except for the path to the exit. which was perfect for taking pics in winter in a controlled climate environment. also, it literally makes for the most insane pics and videos.
Perfect location to see most famous buildings and central park! The balls are balloons haha so a bit underwhelming honestly. Don’t expect it to look like a museum, it’s not that special if you ask me.
100000/10. BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!! Highly recommend if your wanting great views and pictures. We made reservations for 10 pm on a clear night. Breathtakingly beautiful & we got amazing pictures ❤️❤️❤️Worth every penny!!
used for the first time for my trip to New York. I immediately found myself comfortable with the choices of places to visit. Easy and fast reservations with immediate response via email. Highly recommended
I thought Summit One Vanderbilt is not different from the rest of the observation towers in NYC. I have already been to Empire State, The Edge, Top of the Rock and One World but each of them caters differently. I enjoyed the view, silver balloons and mirror concepts that they have put into their effect. overall, I was awesome and fantastic!
A very interactive visit to the summit, be prepared that it’s really bright in there so you will have to wear their shades, if you prefer you can bring your own shades too! but it’s really pretty to take sights of NYC from up there 🇺🇸 since it’s glass floors, girls do try to wear jeans and avoid skirts or dresses
It’s a must to visit when you’re in NYC, and the views are gorgeous! We had to queue up before going in which took quite a while due to the security checks, but once we were up there, we were in awe! Great experience and worth every penny
had a really great time even though there are lots of people! haha but the view on top is spectacular. you can line up like 10mins before your booked slot because there are too many people inside and they limit it. they provide sunglasses in case you forgot to bring. wear a lot of sunscreens if you will visit in the middle of the day because the sun is blinding!
Very Good Experience, Worth the money and time, Amazong views , you can enjoy the views of entire Manhattan. get dressed to have good pictures taken.
A very unique experience fit for all types of travellers - whether solo or group or with children. A child friendly place and they’ll enjoy the balloon area. Good vantage points of the city as well
