"Complete Rip Off!"

Hidden costs! No Ice Skating included- complete waste of money! We booked the Chalets “apres skate” the booking ref reads “we will see you on the ice” unfortunately Ice skating is not included, this is not clear upon booking. It cost us almost $100 each (4 adults, 2kids) to book the chalet. On arrival there is a minimum spend of $25 per person when in the chalet, plus tax, plus 20% service charge! Complimentary trip to top of the rock is included for 4 of the 6 who booked. The chalets are positioned with a hedge in front so only the tallest of guests can see the ice without straining their neck! We had to argue with the staff to get to the top of the rock. All in it cost me $220 for 2 hot chocolate and my daughter’s trip to top of the rock (only 4 tickets for 6 people, I didn’t get to go)

"Not worth the price"

I would save your money and skate somewhere else. When we first got there they were going to take a picture and instead of asking us if we wanted one the girl just pointed and said “Go” like we were dogs. They gave my daughter two right foot skates, we went to return them and they once again gave us two right feet. They didn’t apologize. Extremely rude employees. For $380 you would expect at least decent customer service. So go in with extremely low expectations because you won’t be disappointed that way!

"Wonderful time"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5

We had a wonderful time. A morning slot so was lovely and quiet. The only recommendation / suggestion I would have is that it’s annoying when they have to clean the ice in the middle of a session for 15 mins. It would be better if they didn’t this between sessions as it’s really disruptive. Particularly as we only had 10 mins left of our time and then had to come off ice for 15 mins in order to get back on for the last ten mins!!! But overall was wonderful experience.
