Macy's is the representative of department store worldwide. An icon of capitalism and consumerism, the Herald Square flagship has special meaning for both New Yorkers and tourists. Goods are not particularly expensive as anticipated by many. Apart from the vintage escalator, America's largest department store is also famous for ornate Christmas decoration. Do take a look when around.

We visited Macys to see the famous Christmas decorations and we were blown away. Macys go all out from the building itself, to the windows and the decorations in the store. So much planning and thought has gone into them and they certainly draw a crowd. Well worth a visit if in NY at Christmas time. And of course we did a bit of shopping while we were there, well it would have been rude not to!

Great place to get bargains in all departments. Ralph Lauren clothes were good price as were toys You need to come with lot of time as it’s very big store and you must visit all the floors . The staff were all very helpful Will come back when in NYC next time

Came in to have a look around with the intention of hopefully buying something. A bit of a shambles but I suppose as just after Christmas. More like a jumble sale now. Shop is way too hot and made me want to just get out asap.

We visited Macys just on a whim as we were passing and it’s famous, we actually ended up picking up a few items we needed and others as gifts for family. I loved the traditional wooden escalators. The cashier/salesman was super friendly and when he heard out English accents he started asking about Halloween in the UK (it was a few days away) and how do we celebrate etc he was explaining about the Macy’s Halloween and New Years parades and how different department stores in the uk are to the US. It actually became our go to place on our trip my Wife actually went there every day of our stay in New York. Prices were a little more than you would pay elsewhere but that’s to be expected although we did find several bargains and reduced items. Would definitely recommend

Was walking around midtown Manhattan exploring, so decided to check out the largest Macy's in the world. Didn't do any shopping, just walked around taking in the sights. It's a massive store, something like 6 or 7 stories tall and I believe takes up an entire city block.

For me and my wallet this is my favorite shopping store. Such great deals and so much fun indoors . Helpful staff. We were there around Black Friday, so trillions and of people and not enough changing rooms. Definitely would stay near here next time!!!!

The Menswear and Fragrance department were filled with very attentive staff who certainly know customer service. Obviously I did leave a few dollars poorer after selecting some fantastic deals. Always worth a visit when in town.

You must go to Macys while in NYC! The wooden escalator is so unique!!! I had to purchase something while in the flag ship store- a pair of earrings!!! I was so impressed with all the shoppers while walking around the huge store. A MUST!!
