Editor's note
The Hotel Indigo Lower East Side offers a rooftop outdoor pool, part of the Mr. Purple lounge, providing impressive skyline views. While the pool itself isn't a central feature for guests, its connection to the popular bar means it likely gets lively with a social atmosphere in warmer months. However, the lack of positive mentions beyond its existence in the hotel description suggests it's more of an amenity for the lounge than a dedicated swimming or lounging experience.
