As a Canadian, there's nothing quite like sitting by an outdoor skating rink on a sunny Vegas rooftop in a t-shirt, sipping on some drinks in the middle of December. It's free to enter and explore the area. Some sections are by paid reservations only. You get a great view of the strip, the setup of the chalet and bar are quite nice. Very family friendly on the ice during the daytime. If you're not bringing kids, it's much better to chill on the sidelines with or without the heat lamp on with your hot chocolate or snacks than trying find some space on the ice for 30$ skate rentals. The only downside if you do choose to skate is that the rink isn't large, so it'll get crowded pretty quick.
I love that you can ice skate on the strip on a rooftop with a great view AND it snows! Just another thing to love about the Cosmopolitan and Las Vegas! And what a way to get you into the Christmas spirit! The rink is so much fun and they also have skate aids that are pretty cool that look like dolphins if you want to push your child around or if you need them to help you skate for a minute. I let my best friend push me around for a minute! Was so much fun! They also have a few cute spots where you can sit around a fire pit and order cocktails that are themed and different delicious food items! Including s’mores! I tried the Jack Frost cocktail it was so good and delicious! All of the people there were very helpful and treated us nicely. Shoutout to bartender Chad! Very cool photo op spots as well! Decorated nicely for the season! Overall this was such an amazing, unforgettable, and fun time! Can’t wait to go back again!
It's a yearly tradition for my friends & I to rent a fire pit & ice skate at the Cosmopolitan as the beautiful ice rink oversees the Las Vegas Strip with beautiful lights & there's so much to celebrate with the month of my birthday & Thanksgiving holidays. This year I rented a fire pit for 12 people @4:30 PM & it was $500 for 2.5 hours. The $500 excluding gratuity, service fee, & sales tax is used towards food, beverage including cocktails, and skates voucher credit. The skate vouchers are also an exclusive offering for reservation guests that include access to the rink & skate rentals for $15 per person which is usually $30 daily or $20 for locals with valid ID so that was a great deal. The servers were also super sweet & constantly checking up on us to inquire if we needed anything. In the end she used my remaining credit to give us bottled waters. I also highly recommend emailing their cabana sales team as they were efficient & answered all my questions/concerns promptly, as well as providing the menu & other information beforehand. Cons: - The snow showers are supposed to happen every 30 minute but we did not see it once during the 4 hours we were there this year. - It also gets busy after 6 pm so I recommend going a little earlier considering the ice rink is quite considerably small & it gets really cramped.
Highlight of our weekend in Vegas. Kids loved the skating, adults loved the fire pit. Highly recommend reserving the Fire Pit for the 2.5 hours. Went from 4-6:30 and was perfect - twilight and not crowded. Was also nice to be outside with fresh air.
If I’m being honest, it is such a beautiful Vegas winter vibe. But that’s about it. I guess it’s nice for locals to just go up there at least once in their Vegas residency for a winter Vegas vibe but if you live here and want to actually skate, definitely go somewhere else. The rink is small and packed so it’s just best if we leave the rink to the tourists. And this is the part that made me want to give it 1 star, MY FEET nasty blisters from the skates. I’ve skated many times, I know how skates should be properly on, but I’m used to the laces one it’s probably to make a lot of affordable ones for one time a year but these skates definitely feel cheap. My other friends also had blister problems. Moral of the story, it’s nice but packed, shoes are thumbs down to the max, and it’s just worth going to another rink for skating even if it’s time limited.
Such a cool place to come spend some time outdoors in the cool winter weather. There are also so many activities for all ages.
If you can only do one this Christmas this your do this magical
I would give this 4 stars but it's not necessarily their fault. It's a converted rink, so it's small. Therefore crowded. Prices aren't bad to rent skates. Maybe they could Zamboni more often but I get why once every 1.5-2 hrs is enough in their eyes. I'm giving them 5 stars because they really care. I fell twice. HARD on my butt one time my beanie fell off, and within seconds someone was there checking on me. I really appreciated their thoughtfulness. I was okay. My butt hurts lol. I definitely bruised my tailbone, but that's not their fault. I'm just not an experienced skater. I'd recommend this if you have the time during the holiday season on the strip.
This was a super fun experience! A little pricey for the fire pit but it was nice to have a place to sit down and eat. Great views! Wonderful staff.
The ice rink is located on the fourth floor of the Boulevard Tower. The pool is turned into an ice skating rink from November before Thanksgiving until January after a few days of the new year. The rink is the size of the pool ,so it's not as big as other ice skating rink. The cost is $20 for all day and $10 for locals and hotel guests. You may bring your own skates. There's snow scheduled to drop starting at 7 pm. We did not get to see the snow, because we were not there at the right time. There's fire pits that you can reserve. The location of the the ice rink is great for viewing the strip. Beautiful photo ops available.
