Dip Into These 8 L.A. Hotel Pools Without A Room Reservation

The Roosevelt

How To Access: Spend $40 at cafe table, which guarantees you a maximum of 2 hours of pool time. Like a giant Swiss Family Robinson treehouse, the Roosevelt Hotel is home to many hidden surprises. From the Spare Room speakeasy with two bowling lanes to the Beacher's Madhouse carnival somewhere down below, the Roosevelt holds quite a range of bars. The Tropicana Bar is hard to beat, though. It's the one with the giant David Hockney-painted pool. With an above-water patio wrapping around the swimming zone, Tropicana boasts lush foliage, firepits, tables, couches, and lounge chairs, and is a friendly host to the children of Hollywood and their summertime parties and night swims.
