The best NYC hotels with pools solve the problem of where to find somewhere to cool off high up above the hustle and bustle—and usually with a drink in hand. Maybe you're touring the city in the hot summer weather or you're doing a staycation here. Regardless of why you're looking for a hotel with a pool in NYC, we've rounded up the best places with jaw-dropping skyline views and poolside summer drinks at the swankiest pools in the city. From a 75-foot lap pool to a sundeck with top dog DJ bookings, these NYC hotels make a splash.
April 2025 update: We added Virgin Hotels New York, the TWA Hotel, Margaritaville, Ravel Hotel's Summer Club and the Rockaway Hotel + Spa. We ranked these based on vibes and ranked them higher if they are open to the public/have day passes.
