The Friends Experience is usually only open for day tours but [Booking.com](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-guest-house-at-graceland) is giving fans of the 90s sitcom the chance to reserve the entire two-storey venue overnight. The Ultimate Sleepover at The Friends Experience gives fans the chance to sleepover in a set recreation of Monica and Rachel's apartment and they'll also get the chance to enjoy a late-night game of Phoebe’s Cab Escape Room, a themed scavenger hunt and coffee and breakfast and Central Perk.

Fittingly, a guest can bring a friend of their own to enjoy the one-night Friends Experience in New York City. To capture the experience, a professional photographer will be available so that fans can see themselves recreating iconic moments from the show.
