Any Hongkonger will tell you that the summers in this high-rise city can be brutal. Blazing sun, insufferable humidity and torrential rain are just a few of the factors that leave us all feeling drenched and sticky.
But what better way to beat the heat than a dip in one of the city’s awesome pools? Whether you’re looking to do a few laps or just relax with a good book, we have found the best pool-hotels in Hong Kong that will leave you refreshed and ready for more.
If you’re in the mood for a leisurely swim, head to the stunning outdoor pool at Four Seasons Hong Kong. This breathtaking infinity pool offers iconic views of the skyline and Victoria Harbour. And it’s also heated so you can take a dip year-round. You can lounge and relax, or try a few laps in the 25-metre lap pool. There’s even a hot and cold whirlpool where you can soothe your muscles after a workout.
Another cool option for a dip is at the Morrison Hill Swimming Pool. This large open-air pool is surrounded by lush greenery and features a water playground for kids, a wading pool and a slide. And if you’re feeling hungry, there is a cafe near the pool where you can grab a bite to eat.
For a more active pool experience, check out the Victoria Park Swimming Pool. This massive facility is home to a 50-by-25-metre main pool, a diving platform, two teaching pools and an outer area that includes a second swimming pool and sunbathing space. And with adult admission costing HK$17 on the week and HK$19 on weekends (and public holidays), it’s as affordable as it gets for a quick dip in some cool water!
HK Pools, or Hong Kong pools, is a popular form of gambling that’s played by millions of people each year. It’s a lot like the lottery and works by having players choose a set of numbers and then hope that they will be drawn in the winning combination. While the odds of hitting the jackpot are slim, HK pools is still a fun and exciting game to play!
