The pool
Hilton Barra sits at Av. Engenheiro Carlos Carvalho 1430 in Barra Olímpica, with its rooftop pool on the 9th floor. A rooftop restaurant serves its daytime menu by the pool, with snacks, salads and sandwiches. Who can swim isn't published.
Our take
At 9 floors up, it beats Fasano's 8th, the only other published floor on our list. The two are different trips: Fasano is on Ipanema's seafront, while Hilton Barra is in Barra Olímpica. If you want to be near the beach districts in Copacabana or Ipanema, this is the wrong address.
The downside is that the hotel leaves non-guest access and cost unstated. Treat it as a guests pool unless the hotel tells you otherwise.
