The Pool at The Berkeley

"Discreet and rejuvenated hotel with rooftop pool and opulently decorated bedrooms"

"Other winning touches are the top-floor pool—it has a retractable roof that opens in fine weather—with stunning views across Hyde Park and beyond; two famed chefs in eponymous restaurants (Marcus Wareing and Pierre Koffmann); and the Blue Bar, with its "Lutyens blue" palette (a lavender shade) by designer David Collins"

"Convenient for Knightsbridge shopping, the very elegant Berkeley is known for its renowned restaurants and luxuries that culminate—literally—in a splendid penthouse swimming pool"

"Not the best-known of London’s luxury hotels, rebuilt in the 1970s, but the Berkeley offers an exceptional range of opulent services (including free Wi-Fi) – with the rooftop pool and spa as a crowning glory"

"Don’t miss the top-floor swimming pool (one of only two in London); it perches above Hyde Park with a roof that slides open in good weather"

"Chic design mixed with art deco details and classic touches distinguishes this Belgravia luxury hotel, which also features restaurants from noted chefs Marcus Wareing and Pierre Koffmann plus a rare rooftop pool with a sliding glass roof and solarium"

"Next to the pool, the Secret Garden is decked out with loungers, where, among the jasmine, rosemary, thyme and fig plants, it’s a world away from the bustle of Knightsbridge below"

"What remains untouched is part of what makes The Berkeley special: the glorious rooftop swimming pool (open to the sky on nice days), the ultra-relaxing Bamford Haybarn spa, and Marcus Wareing’s fine two-Michelin-star restaurant"

"The rooftop pool and small garden are one of the hotel's attractive highlights, and they have wonderful open-air views across Hyde Park"

"The Berkeley Health Club & Spa include a rooftop pool an the decadent Bamford Haybarn spa"
