Pick The Laura for a Downtown Houston rooftop swim without booking a room. The day pass is $50 per adult on ResortPass, $30 more than the Marriott Marquis, and cabanas cost extra.
The pool
The Laura is in Downtown Houston at 1070 Dallas St, and its rooftop pool is open to day-pass buyers. No floor number is published. Food and drinks are on sale, and the pool is wheelchair accessible.
Our take
The Laura costs $50, the same as the Westin Memorial City, and well above the Marriott Marquis at $20, which is also Downtown. The Westin gives you the 18th floor for that money. Here the floor isn't published, so you are paying for the Downtown address.
The catch is the stack of extras. A cabana costs more on top of the pass, and food and drinks are bought separately. Budget past $50 if you want shade and a meal.
