"It costs ¥50 to visit the observation deck and extra ¥50 to go up some spiral stairs to a revolving cat themed cafe area. This is probably not worth the extra money, although the windows up there are cleaner than the official observation deck. What’s up with that?
There are cats in a large(ish) glass area but it’s closed off and you have to pay to play as it were. It’s a bit weird I guess. As for the food and coffee…forget about it. This is the eighth highest tower in the world, with comparable prices, what are they even thinking. I saw one guy drinking a ten dollar coffee and nobody else going near the cafe service area.
All up, I wouldn’t say 天津广播电视塔 is worth it but I wouldn’t say it’s not worth it either unless we’re talking the cafe."

"Visited on 28 Nov 2024 a weekday in cold season when tourists were only a few but the experience was lousy. 1st of all, there are 2 types of tickets, RMB50 to the viewing gallery and RMB100 to the revolving top which is merely 5 meter more with the same view. So do not need to pay 50% extra. 2ndly was the guides 讲解员 for both storeys, might as well put a tape recording because they were distant, acted atas and rude. For example the lady who was in the lift with me to the viewing gallery was so reluctant to be my guide because she had to be separated with her other two colleagues in a small talk and rushed in after me. She used her phone to check on herself then suddenly put her phone in her pocket and do the introductory part for the tower like a robot. Yes, like a robot and looked at me like a country bumpkin and said everything except introducing herself. The 2nd guide at the revolving tower lagi best, showing some eye tricks installations and distantly said the formality "anything you need please look for me" again without introducing herself so how would i know her name if i were to look for her? She also treated me like a country bumpkin and looked at me up and down. I guess she felt better this way and hope that she will not do this to her fellow countrymen who make honest living and pay good money to visit. The cafe food and drinks were expensive but still affordable in Singapore standard. However, i didn't want to support it because they caged up few handsome cats in a beautiful cell at the resolving tower without letting them interacting with human. The guide kept saying that they will have knock off time yet without telling me when will that be. This is animal cruelly because the cats will feel stressful at high ground with changing view every minute. There was only one lady at the entrance who behaved like a normal human and talked normally. So overall experience sucked, don't need to pay 50% for a few meter more and don't support these self entitled robotic guides."
