"Unforgettable!"
December 2018
Going to 360 Chicago during the week was an excellent idea! We did not have to wait in line and the view of the skyline was beautiful! I have lived near Chicago my whole life and never experienced anything like this! The staff was friendly and the drink at the bar were reasonable and delicious!

I used my international card to buy the tickets but, after the purchase, I received an email that I should call to Reserver Chicago center in order to confirm my identity. It was a trouble.

"Great online prices."
September 2018
The reason I choose to book the tickets form here is great online price. You get the vouchers on the email and they can be redeemed any time at the counter. Sometimes ticket windows close due to rush but if you have a voucher they provide you tickets instantly and you are good to go. This part was great as I visited on Labor Day weekend.

Tip: This is not a fast pass and only voucher. You have to collect the tickets from counter

"Way too expensive for eeehhhh nothing!"
September 2018
You pay a hundred dollars to see the city from a building of which there are many more. Nothing is included, no drinks, not the pictures of 25 usd , nor the window that tilts 8 usd. Ridiculous. Save your money and go to a top floor for free somewhere else

Can't beat the views of Chicago from here, but the glare on the glass made it hard to get good pictures.

"Nothing special"
TripAdvisor user rating 3 out of 5
Reviewed October 11, 2020 NEW
I purchased 360 All acces pass (drink at a bar, tilt, view). View is beautiful. You can’t record or take pictures of yourself on Tilt attraction because they want you to buy their photo of you for $25...At the bar, drinks are not the same like pictures on the website -plastic cup, cheap drink. Staff is not friendly at all. And you can’t even sit with the drink because all tabels are occupied of people who don’t even have a drink.. Yes, even during pandemic. No socail distancing at all. I recommend to buy only the ticket for a view (without Tilt and bar) save your money.

"A Bird’s Eye View of Chicago With Limitations"

Reviewed October 03, 2020 NEW
I visited the Willis (Sear’s) Tower on my last trip to Chicago so decided to give the Hancock Tower’s “Chicago 360” a try. And while you get an extraordinary view of Chicago from 1,000+ feet above the famed “Magnificent Mile,” the reflective nature of the glass (during the day) and the internal lighting (during the evening) made it difficult to get a clear photo of the view. Still it’s worth a visit and you should get the ticket that allows both day and night access.

"Beautiful Chicago Skyline and Tilt Experience"
TripAdvisor user rating 5 out of 5
Reviewed August 29, 2020
My husband and I decided to stop here with two teenage boys to check out all of the "Tilt" hype. We added on the drink option at Bar 94 just to calm our nerves prior to doing the tilt. There is an ice cream stand next to / part of the bar, which the kids enjoyed. We sipped our drinks, enjoyed our ice cream, and walked around the observation deck soaking in the views of the Chicago skyline. This was something new for us to try, and we all had a great time. We would recommend.

"View awesome, but overpriced and drinks terrible"
TripAdvisor user rating 3 out of 5
Reviewed August 03, 2020
With a charge of $30 per person for the "cocktail and a view," we were expecting a much more impressive "cocktail!" LOL. Enjoy a basic domestic beer, cheap wine, or crappy over-sweetened basic "cocktail"...or throw it in the trash because it's so terrible you can't finish it. Awesome view of the city though. We enjoyed it, but think they could be more classy and generous with the drinks included in the ticket.
