The pool
NOPSI Hotel's pool sits on the 9th floor, on Baronne Street in the Central Business District. The hotel lists sweeping skyline views over the city, and the Above the Grid rooftop bar serves cocktails, beer and light bites. Heating isn't published.
Our take
NOPSI sits in the same price band as Le Méridien but costs $5 less for a day pass, and it publishes its floor, which Le Méridien's own pages don't. The Barnett is the other 9th-floor pool on our list, though its day-pass price isn't listed.
The catch is the missing heating information. In the cooler months (average highs of 18.2°C in December and 16.9°C in January) ask the hotel before you pay $35 for a swim.
Good to know
- 9th-floor pool, floor published
- Day passes from $35 on ResortPass

The catches

- Cabana price isn't published
Best forGroups who want a swim, a drink and skyline views from one 9th-floor spot.
Skip it ifWinter swimming matters to you, since the hotel doesn't publish heating.

Tips
- Live performances and DJs happen as the sun sets, so book an evening pass if you want music.
- Ask about the poolside cabana when you book, because its price isn't stated.
Before you go. Check that the pool is heated before you buy a pass in winter, since the hotel doesn't say.
