Stay here if you want to swim at odd hours. The WET Deck pool on Level Four is heated and open 24/7, and AWAY Spa treatment guests can use it too. The rooftop bar takes walk-ins.

The pool

W Brisbane's WET Deck is an outdoor, heated pool on Level Four, with sun loungers and views of Brisbane City. It is open 24/7. The catch is that swimming is limited to people staying at the hotel and AWAY Spa treatment guests.

Our take

W is the only pool on our list that publishes 24-hour swimming. Voco, a few doors along North Quay, closes the pool at 9pm, and Emporium closes at 10pm.

The downside is the level. Level Four is lower than the 21st floor at Emporium, and no water temperature is stated, only that the pool is heated. Non-guests who want to be there can book an AWAY Spa treatment, or walk into the WET Deck rooftop bar for drinks.

Good to know

  • Open 24/7
  • Heated for swimmers' comfort
  • Walk-ins welcome at the WET Deck bar
  • AWAY Spa treatment guests get pool access

The catches

  • Guests and spa treatment guests only
  • Level Four, with no water temperature published

Best forSwimmers who want early or late hours, plus spa visitors after a pre or post treatment dip.

Skip it ifYou want a high floor or a pool you can buy a day pass for.

Getting in

People staying at the hotel can swim, as can AWAY Spa treatment guests, who get WET Pool access before or after their treatment. No day pass is listed.

The WET Deck rooftop bar welcomes walk-ins, though no opening time is stated. The hotel doesn't publish an age rule for the pool.

Tips

  • Book an AWAY Spa treatment if you aren't staying, since it opens the pool for a pre or post swim.
  • Don't confuse the AWAY Spa vitality pools with the WET Deck pool. They are separate.

Before you go. Ask which treatment you need to book at AWAY Spa before you count on pool access.
