| - So I'm honestly pretty terrible at ice skating. Mainly because I have a fear of pain, and the idea of falling on ice doesn't seem too pleasant. My boyfriend wanted to do something different, so ice skating seemed like a solid idea.
Upon arriving at the ice rink, which is located directly at the top of the Cosmopolitan (look for the sign that says floor 4 boulevard pool), the staff was immediately helpful and friendly. If you're a local, the admission and rental fee will add up to be $15, for non-residents it'll be $20.
After receiving our skates, I immediately fell in love with them. The style of skates allows you to adjust the individual clips so it's tight enough for you to walk around and skate comfortable.
The ice rink itself was small, but comfortable. It allowed enough space for you to skate around without being jam packed against the other skaters.
After you've had your ice skating fill, head over to the bar and get yourself a drink and even food! My boyfriend and I chose to get a s'mores kit for $10. It included a pack of graham crackers, 3 Hershey bars, a pack of marshmallows, giant skewers, and even wet naps! The kit was definitely worth the price and made the whole experience even better.
If you're looking to bring a date, be sure to check out the ice rink on Monday nights. They have a special date night theme where they show scenes from various holiday movies. On Thursdays, it's throwback time! Eat s'mores, drink, and skate all while listening to some classics from the 70's all the way to the 90's.
The ice rink at the Cosmopolitan is definitely something they should continue to do every year. It adds some festive family fun to Vegas during the best time of the year!
