Book City River if you want to eat and drink beside a salt-water rooftop pool. The poolside bar takes lunch and dinner orders from 11:00 to 21:30. Swim hours and non-guest access aren't published.

The pool

City River Hotel is a 4-star hotel on Wat Bo Rd with a salt-water pool on the roof. A poolside bar serves cocktails and food, and the hotel lists city and sunset views. The catch is that the floor, the swim hours and the access rules aren't published.

Our take

City River is the only salt-water pool among the hotels on our list that names its water type. Its food service is also the clearest here, with orders from 11:00 to 21:30 at the poolside bar. Homewood, also on Wat Bo Rd, gives swim hours instead and says little about food.

The downside is what's missing. We can't tell you the pool's floor, when you can swim or whether visitors can pay to use it. At 4.3 from 302 reviews on Google, its rating is lower than Homewood's 4.5, though from more reviews.

No day pass, bar-only access or age rules are listed.

Tips

  • Order lunch at the pool any time from 11:00, or dinner up to 21:30.
  • Time your visit for late afternoon if you want the sunset views the hotel lists.

Before you go. Ask whether the pool has set swim hours, because only the poolside food hours are published.
