Choose 54 on Bath if you're staying and want a pool next to a sunset bar. The pool is on the Level 4 terrace, guests only, and the Level Four Bar next to it admits non-residents.

The pool

The outdoor pool is on the Level 4 terrace at 54 Bath Ave in Rosebank, beside the recently refreshed bar. The hotel lists African sunset views from the terrace. Swimming is for hotel guests only.

Our take

This 5-star hotel keeps its pool for guests, and non-guests can't use it. If you aren't staying, Home Suite Hotels Rosebank is the Rosebank option that sells day passes. What you can do here is drink at the Level Four Bar & Terrace, which is open to non-residents.

The hotel states no start time for the bar and doesn't publish pool hours or heating. At 4 floors up, it's also lower than Southern Sun Sandton's 9th-floor pool.

  • Bar open to non-residents

The catches

Tips

  • Guests can add the rooftop garden picnic, which includes bubbly, finger foods, croquet and a mini gazebo.
  • Visiting only for a drink? Phone ahead for the bar's opening time, because the hotel doesn't state one.
