Pick this for a heated pool you can use without a room. Non-guests buy a day pass on ResortPass, and it includes a daybed cabana for up to four people with Camelback views.
The pool
The pool is at 7117 E 3rd Ave, in the 5th Avenue Shops & Boutiques area. It is heated, with loungers, cabanas and daybeds, and views of Camelback Mountain and downtown Scottsdale. The hotel doesn't publish a floor, and the day pass price isn't shown.
Our take
AC Hotel is one of two heated pools on our list, with Senna House. That matters from December to January, when average highs run 18.1 and 19.2 degrees Celsius, against a best swim season of June to August.
The catch is cost clarity. ResortPass shows the pass but the hotel gives no price, and the cabana is the product, so check what the pass covers for your group. It suits a group of up to four better than a solo swimmer.
Good to know
- Heated pool for cooler months
