Went on the New York roller coster on my own, seemed a little dear to start with but i wanted to go on it so i paid the $15, the views were great but you can tell that the coaster is old because it bashes you about in the cart. If you love roller coasters as much as me i... More

Dear all, please do not do this ride if you have only just had breakfast or you will hurl over your fellow passengers...it was a great experience and despite not emptying my pockets completely which was dumb, albeit nothing fell out, it did mean that I held my pockets closed whilst being flipped around. Great fun, but only the once... More

As someone who had been to Disney,universal,sea world and many other parks with roller coasters.... Boy is this one Poooor and very jolting. It sputtered up and down and around to give you a very jarring ride. The scenery during the ride was nice, but the ride was not good. Save your money and walk around to see the sites... More

When in Las Vegas this is a must ride. We paid $14 which is a little pricey but it is Vegas, short queue time and its a fun roller coaster ride which takes about 3 minutes

Great roller coaster! We were in Vegas when it wasn't very busy, so we walked right up and got a ticket and got on. No waiting! The coaster has ups and downs and twists and turns. I didn't see very much of the scenery, but the ride was fun. I would do this again, and probably buy the multi-ride pass.... More

I convinced my boyfriend - who hates roller coasters - to go on this with me, and sit in the front row :-). Even he liked it. $14 each is a bit steep, but it's Vegas. I like how it goes around the whole hotel and you can see a lot of the strip. It's a fun ride!

It was a fun ride. Very jerky however!! We were able to split up our party and those who did not want to ride and my little one played in the arcade. I would do it again.

If you are in Vegas the NY NY Roller Coaster is an attraction not to be missed. For only $14/ pp you will get to ride a spectacular roller coaster on the strip.

Was surprised this coaster can rival that of any amusement park. We went mid-day and had almost no wait. There was 5 of us, so we paid for a package that included free photos with the purchase of 4 tickets. The photos were row by row only, if you wanted the whole car shot, you had to pay extra.
