Disney's Hotel New York ice rink is closing

[Slimy yet satisfying]

Ewww! I dont like that at all...reminds me of a cheap fairground. If they wanted to have a racetrack they should have made it cars themed and put it at the santa fe instead. The whole point of an ice rink being outside the new york with the giant christmas tree is to make it resemble times square i was led to believe...im pretty sure that go carts arent part of a new york christmas!

What a mistake to be making. At Christmas time it is a great feature to have, my kids (and adults in our party) love to go on the ice rink. They won't want to do things like quad bikes as just not Disney, esp outside the hotels even if they will be like the theme.

I thought it was meant to be The Rockerfeller centre, either way you're right. No go carts screaming round a New York Christmas.

Yeah you can find these in most amusement arcades and all over every sea front in the uk!

I never used the rink but it made for a beautiful setting over the winter months.

We only ventured over to the HNY in Feb for the first time, to see the ice skating, although at 10-15Euros each we didn't partake in the end.  It looked good though, I thought, and it would be a shame to lose this feature.

Where's the petition to sign??

Last time I was there, I went in those giant inflatable (zorb?) balls! quite fun, but undeniably cheapens Disney.... i thought they replaced the 'real' ice rink a few years back with that plastic ice stuff?
