The best top roof pools in the world









Where could be a better place to relax after a day of work, shopping or sighsteeing?
These are my favourites which I consider to be the most amazing pools.

Have I forgotten any cool pool on the list? Please help me to complete the list by leaving a comment here and let me know of more fab pools with extraordinary views.

1. For the tough girls & boys who are not afraid of heights...
Marina Bay Sands, Singapore.
OMG. I am not sure I would dare this one. Swimming in the roof top poool on the 55th floor. The pool seems to end by the edge of the building...
It is supposed to be the largest outdoor pool in the world at that height.

2. For music-lovers, With underwater music!
Hotel Gansevoort, NYC, USA
A heated rooftop pool with underwater music, a bar and great view of NYC. Life is good! Swim and enjoy a 360 degree panorama of the city.

2. Cool pool
Radisson, DubaiThere are so many excellent places in Dubai. I just love the desert!
Dubai is labelled the "shopping capital of the Middle East".
After the hot desert & hot shopping it is nice to cool down poolside. Why not at the Radisson Blu in Dubai. I stayed here last year and it was so nice.
The view of the city is fab.

3. Look down on the street below through the pool floor
Avalon, Gothenburg, Sweden
Wow what a place! Stay at the hotel Avalon in Gothenbrug. Swim in the pool on the roof and look down on the street, 50 meters down, through the glass floor in the pool. Scary or lovely? It is up to you... We had a nice lunch in the restaurant, the food and service were good.

4. Pool with 5 star chic lux & pop stars
Berkeley, London, United Kingdom
If you want a five star chic luxury alternative choose The Berkely in Knightsbridge. It has a roof top pool and the Blue bar turns into a chich nightspot in the evening. (book a table in advance). The hotel claims on their website that the Blue Bar is Madonnas favourite but I did not see her there when I stayed there.

5. Members only... sorry
Soho House, New York
A place with a heated pool & bar with views over the West Village and the Hudson River. Only for the members, situated in Manhattan's Meatpacking District.

6. A pool cabriolet - with a rectractable roof
Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo, Japan, at Chinzan-so
A spa in a garden setting featuring traditional Japanese cedar baths indoors, and a heated swimming pool, with a retractable roof.

7. A Swedish sign of StockholmClarion, Stockholm, Sweden
Another hotel with a roof pool in Sweden is the Clarion sign in Stockholm.
The hotel has a spa on the 8th floor with a outside pool on the roof. What a view!

8. Nice in Nice!
Radisson Blu hotel, Nice, FranceIsn´t this nice? Ok, sorry, that was a bad joke. But the place looks nice... The colour of the blue sea is truly amazing.
9. Take my breath away, Berlin, Germany
Hyatt, Berlin, Germany
Enjoy the spa, thai chi and yoga before you jump into the the spa & Fitness club heated swimming pool. Relax with breathtaking views over Berlin.

10. Swim in the night during the light show
