Crowne Plaza fits guests who swim early. Its outdoor rooftop pool is heated all year and open 6am to 9pm daily, with reclining sun lounges. The floor and non-guest access aren't published.
The pool
Crowne Plaza's pool is outdoors on the roof of the main hotel building, on Spencer St in Docklands. It is heated all year and open 6am to 9pm daily, with reclining sun lounges. The hotel doesn't publish the floor or any day-pass rules.
Our take
Crowne Plaza matches Vibe Docklands on area and on being outdoor and heated, but it opens at 6am against Vibe's 6:30am. Vibe sells day passes, and Crowne Plaza lists none.
That is the catch. With no published floor and no access rules, you can't judge the height, and a non-guest can't plan a visit. Because the pool is outdoors, December to February gives the warmest air, though the year-round heating keeps it usable outside those months.
