Choose this for the most resort-style deck on our list: palm trees, private cabanas, fire pits and a hot tub next to the water. Floor and access rules aren't published.

The pool

Fairmont Pacific Rim's rooftop pool sits at 1038 Canada Pl in Central Vancouver, among palm trees, cabanas and fireplaces, with a hot tub alongside and beach umbrellas. Floor and access rules aren't published by the hotel.

Our take

Set against L'Hermitage, this is the pool for sitting out rather than swimming laps. The deck has private cabanas, fire pits and a hot tub, and no pool length is published.

Detail is thin. Floor, hours and day-pass terms are all missing, so confirm each before you plan around it. Pan Pacific is on the same stretch of Canada Pl and shares that gap.

Good to know

  • Hot tub alongside the rooftop pool
  • Private cabanas and fire pits
  • Palm trees, fireplaces and beach umbrellas on the deck

The catches

  • Floor isn't published
  • Access rules and day passes aren't published

Best forCouples who want a styled rooftop deck with fire pits and cabanas.

Skip it ifYou need a lap pool or a published day-pass price.

Getting in

Assume the pool is for staying guests unless the hotel confirms otherwise. Access rules aren't published and no day pass is listed for sale.

Cabanas are listed among the deck amenities. Whether they cost extra isn't published.

Tips

  • Email or call the hotel before your trip to ask about cabana booking and pool hours.
  • Swim between June and August, the three best months, to get the most from an open-air deck.

Before you go. Confirm pool hours and whether cabanas are bookable, since the hotel publishes neither.
