The pool
On the roof of the Old Fourth Ward hotel is a heated outdoor pool, open year-round to registered guests and FORTH Club members. Moonlight, a rooftop bar with panoramic views, is on site, and the floor is not published.
Our take
Forth and Nobu are the two year-round heated pools we list. Nobu sells outsiders a cabana from $120. Forth sells nothing, so the only ways in are a room or a Club membership.
The other limit is space. Chairs are reserved through the front desk for a 2.5-hour slot, and weekend availability is limited. Elektra, a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant, is poolside.
Good to know
- Heated and open year-round
- Chairs reservable up to 3 weeks ahead
- All ages welcome
The catches
- No day passes, guests and Club members only
- 2.5-hour chair limit, tight on weekends
Best forGuests who want warm rooftop water through winter and will reserve ahead.

Getting in
