Mumbai's best swimming weather runs October to December, when daily highs sit between 32.2°C and 33.8°C by late year. Eleven hotels are on our list, and none publishes a day pass: two (Hyatt Centric Juhu and Fairfield Mumbai Airport) are guests-only, and the other nine don't say who can swim.
Our first pick is Taj Lands End in Bandra West, which pairs a large outdoor pool with a temperature-controlled lap pool, a children's pool and a poolside bar. For the easiest way near a pool without a room, The Orchid Vile Parle runs a rooftop bar facing the airport runway that is open to visitors from 6 pm to 1 am.

Hotels you might expect here, and why they're not
Several well-known Mumbai hotels don't have a rooftop pool, including The Taj Mahal Palace, The Oberoi, JW Marriott Juhu, T24 Residency and Bloom Hotel Worli.
The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai. None of the three sources mention a swimming pool at this hotel. The hotel's restaurants page mentions rooftop restaurants, but not a rooftop pool.
JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu. No source says any pool is on the roof or a top-floor terrace. Sources describe a beachside, multi-level outdoor saltwater pool, an Olympic-size pool seen through the lobby glass wall beside lotus-pond gardens, and a getaroom mention of three outdoor pools. Status is not-rooftop on the evidence available, not a confirmed negative.
T24 Residency. None of the four sources mentions a swimming pool, rooftop or otherwise. The Google Maps listing gives only category and address, and the hotel's pages cover dining and contact details.
Bloom Hotel - Worli. Neither source mentions a swimming pool, rooftop or otherwise. The Google Maps listing gives only the category and address; the hotel's site excerpt covers ID requirements and structured data (amenities: Wi-Fi, air conditioning, restaurant and café, mineral water). No pool is stated, so status is not-rooftop.
The Oberoi, Mumbai. The hotel's own site says the pool is in a private courtyard, not on the roof or a top-floor terrace. No source places it on the roof.

None on our list publishes a day pass. Hyatt Centric Juhu and Fairfield Mumbai Airport are guests-only, and the other nine don't state who can swim. The Orchid Vile Parle has a rooftop bar open to visitors from 6 pm to 1 am, but the hotel doesn't say visitors can swim.

Which Mumbai hotel has the highest rooftop pool?
We can't name one, because none of the 11 hotels publishes its pool floor. Taj Lands End is described as roof-level, and the Radisson Blu Airport, Holiday Inn Airport and InterContinental Marine Drive all list rooftop infinity pools.
Which Mumbai rooftop pools are good for families?
Yes, two stand out. Taj Lands End has a children's pool, and Holiday Inn Airport provides a lifeguard to watch over kids at the pool. Moxy Andheri West lists a wheelchair-accessible pool. No hotel on our list is published as adults-only.
Where can I swim in Mumbai for the lowest price?
INR 100 per day on weekdays at the Prabodhan Goregaon Olympic-size pool, and INR 120 on weekends. That is a public pool, not a hotel, and the source doesn't say if the price is for adults.
Does Fairfield by Marriott charge extra for its rooftop pool?
Yes, a surcharge is listed for the rooftop pool, but the amount isn't published. Fairfield Mumbai Airport is guests-only, so ask the hotel for the price before you book.
