Alpine Ice Arena in Louisville, Kentucky

“I know I've written some joke reviews but disregard those for the time being. This place was a nightmare. The skating rink itself was in horrible condition, looks as if the 'boni hasn't been ran in a week, it's was horrible to skate on. Speaking on the skates, the quality was horrible, they were rusted, and it was very easy to blister by using (as seen). The bathroom was also very dirty, nothing much to say except th”

“My son and I love this place. We go once a week to keep his skating skills on point because it's closer and has much better public skate hours than Iceland. It doesn't hurt that we get the whole place to ourselves every now and then because it's the middle of a weekday. It's old school, but if you're like me it brings me back to being a kid in the 80's going to the skating rink. Love this place!!”

“Alpine Ice Arena was an awesome experience for my first time ice skating! I went with my wife and cousin, and we had an absolute blast. I only fell once, and it wasnu2019t bad at all. The atmosphere was great; everyone was respectful on the ice, so it felt safe for all skill levels. The music was at the perfect volume, adding to the vibe without making it hard to talk. At just $15, it was a steal, especially for such a f”

“Went yesterday with some friends. The ice had bubble-like bumps on the floor from where water was leaking from the roof. My friend fell and busted her ear after accidentally skating over one. She didnu2019t skate for the rest of the time, and we had to get ice for her head. Me and my other friends also had to be cautious to avoid said bumps so we didnu2019t have to worry about falling either. And on top of that, water fell o”

“No frills ice skating with awesome value. $15 for skates and up to 10 hours of skating blows my mind. When we were there it was crowded but still easy to maneuver and didn't feel cramped on the ice at all. Only the second time skating for my daughter and my second time in 20 years and we both had a blast. Will definitely return (daughter wanted to go back the next day). Even the snack bar was reasonably priced! Hidde”

“This was genuinely the worst skating experience I have ever had. The building is super run down and unbearably cold. The ice is super cut up and had blood stains. I couldnu2019t practice like the rink led me to believe. The staff were unhelpful and seemed to not want to be there. I skated for less than 10 minutes and was refused a refund. Iu2019ll take the loss, but I would never recommend going here.”
