Since Hong Kong summer can be so hot and muggy, it can be tempting to cool off in a pool. And staying at one of Hong Kong’s hotels offering their own pool can provide an unrivalled experience; not only can you soak up some sun but many Hong Kong pools also offer stunning cityscape views!
At W Hong Kong’s 76th floor rooftop pool is one of the highest outdoor pools in the world, encompassing breathtaking views of Hong Kong from every direction. Boasting everything from sunbeds for lounging and sunbathing deckchairs for sunbathing to cocktails on order and high-speed Internet access – guests are usually reserved a place in this oasis but guests of outsiders are invited every weekend during summer for free access!
This spacious complex offers a great spot for swimming and training, featuring a 50-meter main pool complete with spectator stands that can hold 1,200 people, plus training/teaching pools as well as two kid-friendly ones complete with water features, sprinklers and other fun features. Furthermore, this pool was created with sustainability in mind and was the first one in use of Birdair’s translucent insulated tensile membrane technology for insulation.
Although located right by the shore, this pool remains remarkably quiet and popular among both locals and visitors. Designed with a circular shape to take full advantage of the view while interior decor features plants for peace and serenity, heated water keeps temperatures consistent all year round for added convenience.
Sai Kung Pool, Hong Kong’s largest public pool, offers the ideal place for leisurely swimming and taking in its magnificent surroundings. The complex comprises two pools – 50m indoor and 25m training pools plus a diving pool – fully enclosed within a fully fenced environment and with lifeguards on duty from 6am-8pm for your safety while swimming here.
There’s also a jetty where you can enjoy swimming while watching yachts sail past. And for when hunger strikes, there are numerous food offerings on site.
