The modern and superb Epic Sana hotel is found in the upscale area of Amoreiras, and this property offers one of the most impressive rooftop experiences in Lisbon.

Probably the most spectacular view you'll get from a rooftop pool in Lisbon. And that's why we love it so much. The spacious terrace is set over both the 8th and 9th floor, and holds a fantastic and heated rooftop infinity pool, a stylish rooftop bar, and a wide range of comfy daybeds, sofas and sun loungers.

Overview
In short:
On the banks of the Tagus River you find the luxurious and fantastic Altis Belém Hotel & Spa which has a small but very stylish swimming pool on the rooftop. What makes it so unique is the great view of the river flow, the 25 de Abril Bridge, and the minimalist design spa.
What we say:
After our visit here, what we loved most relaxed and private vibe. While the indoor spa with sauna and turkish bath is fantastic, it is something special being out on the open-air terrace.

In short:
Located in central Lisbon, close to Park Eduardo VII, the modern SANA Reno Hotel houses a charming rooftop pool, where you can enjoy refreshing dips high above the city rooftops.

Available to guests staying at the hotel from 9am in the morning to 9pm at night (until 8pm during off season). A great spot to cool of in between exploring the city.
