Empire State Building: Express Entry
About this experience
Visit the Empire State Building with Express Entry. You’ll skip the lines to see the museum and observation deck, starting with exhibits on the 2nd and 80th floors about the building’s construction, its roles in films like _King Kong_ and _Sleepless in Seattle_, and its cultural history.
Then head to the 86th Floor Observation Deck, the highest 360º open-air deck in NYC, for views of Manhattan, Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, and more. You can upgrade onsite to the 102nd Floor Observation Deck, which has floor-to-ceiling windows and views that can reach up to six states.
The Express Ticket is useful for visitors who want to save time, including families and international travelers.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
