The superb rooftop pool at The Joule hotel in Dallas
If you find yourself singing the lyrics to The Lovin' Spoonful's “Summer in the City" during the dog days of summer, ride out the heat wave at one of these great urban hotel pools, set in popular cities across the United States. Our editors have dived into all of them and surfaced to recommend six rooftop pools with a view, two hotels with beachside pools, one resort pool with its own waterslide, and one indoor lap pool with whirlpool. While they may not drown out their city's hustle and bustle, these cool city hotel pools definitely make a big splash with their guests. So, come on in: The water's fabulously fine.
