We went first thing in...

5.00We went first thing in the morning and there was no crowd. Being entirely inside, unlike Empire State Bldg or the Edge, there was no wind and the view was less scary

4.00One World Observatory delivers an unforgettable experience. audio-visual presentation is available. The main observation deck is fully enclosed in glass, offering seamless, 360-degree views. you get unparalleled lookouts over the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges, the Statue of Liberty, and the rolling expanse of the Hudson and East Rivers. I would suggest reach there around sunset time to get beautiful views before and after sunset.
One World Observatory - A Wonderful Experience!

5.00This was my second time visiting One World Observatory and the One Dine Restaurant. Both times have been a wonderful experience! The views by day and night are beautiful, with 360 degree views of the city, including the Statue of Liberty. The sunset from above is gorgeous! Every employee from the door and elevator greeters, to the waitresses, and the supervisor on duty at One Dine (Matthew) was very attentive to details to make sure that every guests needs were beyond satisfactory from the moment they entered until the time they left. The food was also magnificent! (Make sure to try the cauliflower appetizer! You won't regret it!) Be sure to put the One World Observatory on your agenda when visiting New York City!
Meh

3.00It’s something to say you’ve been to top of the tallest building in the country, but otherwise this attraction is just okay. The views are nice enough. The ride up the elevator with a quick history of NYC is best part. But with no outdoor space or interesting view perspectives, this is just so-so. Definitely not enough pizzazz for my 9 year old niece.
One World Observation Deck - at eye level with the clouds.

5.00A remarkable experience of the highest class - I cannot describe it any other way. However, the visit should take place between 12 and 5 PM, then the visibility should still be good. I was on my way to the observation deck around 6:30 PM. Until then, the building was shrouded in clouds, providing only a limited view of New York. All in all, an experience that is highly recommended.
Beautiful and delicous!

5.00well worth the visit, we had pre booked a timeslot, but arrived and entered early. Very friendly employees, and of course the views were stunning.
Stupid

1.00The whole presentation business is stupid. they just show you live screen videos of the street outside in New York that you've just been walking in. They're also few comfortable chairs to sit on while you have your refreshments. they try to get you to stand at tables . they don't think to put chairs near the window so you can relax and look out at The View which of course is wonderful.
