Choose Aquila Atlantis if you are staying anyway and want a rooftop pool included. Guests only is the rule here, so day-trippers should look at Capsis Astoria.

The pool

A 5-star hotel on Igeias Street with its pool on the roof. Access is for hotel guests only. Floor, hours, season and heating aren't published.

Our take

Aquila Atlantis suits a stay, not a visit. Capsis Astoria sells day passes and Aquila doesn't, so if you aren't checking in, the choice is easy.

The catch is how little is published. There is no floor, no hours and no heating information, so ask at booking. The hotel's Google rating is 4.5 from 2690 reviews, the largest sample on our list after Capsis Astoria's 2062 is passed.
