“The Empire State Building’s recently reimagined Observatory Experience is an authentic, must-visit attraction with a brand-new, immersive museum and unmatched views from the heart of New York City,”

said Jean-Yves Ghazi, president of the Empire State BuiIding Observatory.

“We are so pleased that Tripadvisor’s user generated reviews have acknowledged our Observatory Experience as the best of the best not only in New York, but throughout the country. We are grateful to every single member of our Observatory team, without whom this experience and recognition is not possible.”

The Empire State BuiIding Observatory Experience recently underwent a $165 million, top-to-bottom reimagination that added a dedicated guest entrance, a digital and tactile museum that celebrates the icon from the moment it was conceived to its current place in pop culture, and a completely re-imagined 102nd Floor Observatory with unmatched, 360-degree views. Visitation to the deck continues to improve relative to 2019 levels as travel restrictions are lifted.

“Congratulations to the 2022 Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best winners,”

said Kanika Soni, chief commercial officer at Tripadvisor.

“The Travelers’ Choice Awards recognize the best of the best in tourism and hospitality according to those who matter most: your guests.”

To celebrate this esteemed recognition, the Empire State Building lit up its world-famous tower lights in Tripadvisor Green on June 15.
