Manhattan Midtown Hotel Offers Visitors a Spectacular View From Top of the Rock

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Aug 2, 2013) -  In New York City, having a great view -- from the Hudson and East rivers to the towering skyscrapers -- is essential. While most visitors spend their time on the ground, looking up at the Empire State Building and across the busy streets to the greenery of Central Park, the New York Marriott East Side is offering a hotel deal in Manhattan that gives them a bird's-eye view that encompasses it all.

With the Top of the Rock package at this Midtown Manhattan luxury hotel, guests receive two tickets to the Top of the Rock Observation Deck at Rockefeller Center. The three-level Observation Deck, located on the 67^th, 69^th and 70^th floors of the iconic building, offers an amazing view of the city.

On the 67^th and 69^th floors, outdoor terraces are surrounded by safety glass, making them a great choice for families. On the 70^th floor, however, a completely open-air deck offers an unobstructed, 360-degree view.

These complimentary tickets gain access to the Observation Deck, but those who want the complete experience can join a tour ($17), which runs every hour starting at 10am. For a little over an hour, guests are led by guides who take them through Rockefeller Center's buildings and along streets and past landmarks, with a focus on Rock Center's art and architecture. While each tour is different, all of them take in the murals of Jose Maria Sert and Sir Frank Brangwyn; sculptures by Isamu Noguchi, Michio Ihara and Paul Manship, including the iconic Prometheus statue; and historic relief sculptures by Lee Lawrie, Gaston Lachaise, Attilio Piccirilli and Leo Lentelli. Tours also include the Channel Gardens, Skating Rink and the GE Building (30 Rockefeller Plaza).
