Choose Aston La Scala if you're staying and want a rooftop that keeps going after the pool closes. The pool is guests only, 10:00 to 17:00, and the Moon Bar upstairs stays open until midnight.
The pool
The pool and solarium sit on the 8th-floor rooftop terrace at 12 Av. Félix Faure, with palm trees, sunbeds and 360-degree views across the city and the Mediterranean. It is open June to September, weather permitting. The pool isn't heated.
Our take
Aston La Scala and Splendid are the two guests-only 8th-floor pools on our list, and Aston publishes a tighter window: 10:00 to 17:00, June to September. Splendid opens April to October and is free to guests.
The downside is the season and the lack of heat. The hotel says the water is naturally pleasant May to October, but it only opens the pool from June, and outside that there is nothing to swim in. The hotel mentions the eighth floor, though another page says seventh.

- 8th-floor pool and solarium with 360-degree views

Tips
- Swim before 17:00, then go up to Moon Bar for dinner. The hotel recommends reserving the rooftop restaurant on +33 04 92 17 53 09.
Before you go. Check that your dates fall between June and September, since the pool is closed outside that window.
