From the reviews
First and foremost, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The space is beautiful, but the size is a little deceiving. It looks huge, but there aren't as many routes as you'd imagine from the looks of it. It was not crowded when I went after work, but the gym just opened.
We celebrated my son's 5th birthday here at Gravity Vault Hoboken. The climbing party was a lot of fun for all! Most, if not all, kids are first timers but that didn't present any issues. They were all excited from the moment they wore the harnesses.
A great place to do some rock climbing before trying it on a actual mountain. Never been to such a place and the experience was amazing. The staff is very hospitable and they are generous enough to offer us Rock Climbing and Bouldering both under the same price for a friend’s birthday.
I recently visited The Gravity Vault in Hoboken, and it was an awesome experience! My belay was super helpful and kept encouraging me to push myself and try more climbs. The staff were all really friendly, and the prices were pretty reasonable too.
