What guests say about the pool
In their own words
To top it all off, the rooftop bar was phenomenal. The views alone were breathtaking, but combined with the excellent service, it became one of the highlights of our stay.
The rooftop bar was amazing with such a great atmosphere, and we even received drink vouchers, which was such a nice touch.
This 5-star boutique hotel features stylish, contemporary rooms, a rooftop pool and bar with city views, Mediterranean dining at Fauna restaurant, and thoughtful amenities including a social hour with complimentary wines.

One of the only proper rooftop pools inside the Gothic Quarter.
Why it's not higher
Plunge format and tight deck limit the experience for longer stays.
