We earn a commission if you book through some links on this page. It doesn't change your price, and hotels can't pay to be listed. How we make money.
Jakarta is warm enough to swim all year: average highs run 32.8°C in November, 32 in December and 31 in January. August to October is the best stretch. Ten hotels on our list have rooftop pools. One sells day passes, three are guests only, and six don't publish who can swim.
Our first pick is Hotel Indonesia Kempinski, the one hotel on this list selling non-guest access: a Daily Pass on kempinski.com that also covers the spa, though the price isn't shown. If you'd rather stay and swim at no extra cost, Kemang Icon's 16-meter overflow pool is free for guests and long-stay residents.

Cheaper ways to swim in Jakarta
If you only want to swim, Jakarta has public options that are likely cheaper than a hotel day pass: Cilandak Sport Center, Gelanggang Renang in East Jakarta and the Atlantis Water Adventure water park in Ancol. No adult admission price is listed for any of them here, so check at the gate.
Cilandak Sport Center swimming pool. Listed in a Lifestyle article on Jakarta swimming pools. The stated figure is a starting price, not labelled as an adult admission price.
Gelanggang Renang East Jakarta (Gelanggang swimming pool, East Jakarta). A public pool in East Jakarta. The source describes a one-off fee waiver for city anniversary days in June 2026, which has already passed as of today.
Atlantis Water Adventure (Ancol, North Jakarta). A water park in Ancol, North Jakarta. The source gives no admission price for it.
Hotels you might expect here, and why they're not
Two hotels people often expect to find here, ASHLEY NEWAIR Menteng and Sawana Suites, aren't on the list because their pools are described as indoor, semi-indoor or ground-level rather than on the roof.
ASHLEY NEWAIR Menteng. Both sources describe the pool as indoor or semi-indoor. Neither says it is on the roof or a top-floor terrace, so it cannot be confirmed as rooftop.
Sawana Suites. No source places the pool on the roof or a top floor. Sources describe an indoor pool (hoteljakarta.org, hotels.com) and an outdoor pool with direct room access (Lemon8), so the pool sounds ground-level. The sources conflict on indoor versus outdoor, and no hotel-owned page was available.
