Definitely something to see in the holidays ! So much decor to marvel at and you can ice skate under the tree but you HAVE to book way in advance if you want to do that otherwise have a great time walking around there's all the stores to shop at and decorations galore

This is an iconic building.
At the basement you have restaurants and food. I came here couple times to grab food. It is under renovations in the basement at the moment. Also plus Covid, they have removed all the tables and chairs. If you get food here, there is no place to sit and eat. The building itself has that going back to time feeling.
The outside of the building or surrounding the building is quite nice. It is definitely a landmark and a great place to take photos.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - 596212910Apr 24, 2022
Keepin it real out here at Rockefeller Center
Couldn't afford to go to the ice skating normally, got invited by a friend to the Flipper's opening night, felt very special and had to go. It was a lot of fun, not just the roller skating itself but doing it in the heart of NYC inside an open rink. I didn't stop skating for a single minute throughout the night because I wanted to get the full experience. Def check it out.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - 514742226Feb 6, 2023
We only walked around the shopping stores inside so there isn't much to say. It's a very beautiful building and it was fun to see all of the stores and studio areas

Christmas in NYC is truly magical. Usually, I'm not loving the holiday season, but my boyfriend and I were here during it and it changed me and made my spirits brighter. If you are the Grinch, NYC is the place to visit when it is the holiday season.
There are little chalets near the tree and ice skating rink, food stands, and stands selling Coach purse items. There are many people around, but you can find spots here and there to take pictures by the tree and ice skating rink. This is worth the hype during the holidays. Also, the subway station under the center is great.Helpful 9Thanks 0Love this 6Oh no 0 - Paul W.Englishtown, NJ23264Sep 16, 2023

It's a cool area to hang out their are shops and restaurants! FAO Schwarz toy is an interesting walk-in you can find unique in here! Cole Hahn , Kate Spade, Tiffany are all in the plaza!
Tours and visit the top of the Rock if you like! You're also close to St. Patrick's Cathedral. The Ice Skating Rink is getting ready for the up coming season!
Visit the Rockefeller Center for the experience!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Shahada V.Sylmar, CA56023Nov 29, 2023
Christmas Decor is the absolute best I wish I lived in NY just during the holiday season. I would never leave.

Things you'd never think you really need to see. First the building is just amazing to look at, how they light it up and the lay out all together. Then, the Christmas tree. Wow, one of the most pretty sites you'll see that just being Christmas to you. Must see

After going to the Central Park ice skating rink, this seemed pretty small, and super overpriced. Plus, you also feel like you're in a fishbowl with everyone watching you.
If you want to skate there, to be able to say, "I skated at rockerfeller plaza" then so be it. We preferred Central Park. The plaza itself was nice, but so super crowded and no 6 feet social distancing happening because there's no space available.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
