- Vincent TomDecember 13, 2013It is quite expensive but u have to do it at least once. If u have ur own skates I suggest u use those that way u save urself skate hire monies. Bring ur own lock as well for the lockers.Upvoted 4 days ago
- The Corcoran GroupMarch 1, 2013Make sure you stop at the bank first, they only accept cash! Try and get there at the start of the session for the nicest ice.Upvoted 3 weeks ago
- Jorge Díaz LargoDecember 4, 2014It's truly a gift to have an ice rink in Central Park surrounded by skyscrapers. The rent the skates if you don't have them and there's no limit in time: you can skate until the rink is close.Upvoted Oct 5
- Ice skating in Central Park, a true NY holiday experience. Not as touristy as Rockefeller Center or Bryant Park rinks and has way more space. Best to visit in November when the trees are still alive

- Jeff ChaDecember 30, 2014Nice on paper, a zoo in person. Good for a few a few spins and some Central Park pics, but that's about it. Also cash only.

- Fernanda ObregonMarch 24, 2014Skating during the day is beautiful but... you will have to deal with all the children who do not have traffic notions. ;)
- Ailie ChangDecember 13, 2014Cash Only! There is an ATM inside...don't walk around Central Park looking for one like I did...

- Landon HowellDecember 21, 2013Keep an eye on your scarves, mittens, and earmuffs. Sticky Bandits afoot.

- Andrea CiancarelliJanuary 8, 2011Absolutely to do! No long line (as Rockefeller Center) and a better view of the city!
