SOCITY is a summer-only choice. The rooftop pool is open May to September, weather permitting, and guests can reserve a sunbed through reception ahead of time.

The pool

SOCITY Hotel at St Rita Steps in St Julian's has its pool on the rooftop deck. The hotel pitches it as a break from Paceville, with sunbeds and views over Malta. The floor isn't published.

Our take

SOCITY is the pick if you travel in peak season and want to secure a sunbed. Few hotels on our list publish a sunbed booking step. Here, guests contact reception to reserve a spot.

The catch is the season. Swimming runs from May to September only, weather permitting, so the pool is out for winter trips, when December highs average 17.1°C. The hotel also doesn't publish access for non-guests or the floor.
