At the Bubble: Hotels with Amazing Hot Tub Views

“There’s just something about bubbly hot water. It’s hard to pin down, but, for some reason, when it comes to luxury splash-out essentials, a hot tub is a must-have. But if you really want to max out the splurge factor, there’s only one way to top it: a proper stunner of a view as you relax. These five hotels deliver the goods, with amazing views from their hot tubs – from mountain vistas to sprawling cityscapes (glass of fizz optional).

The Merchant Hotel, Belfast, Northern Ireland
———————————————-

Stay at the five-star Merchant Hotel in Belfast and you’re well set for a spot of pampering. Right in the city centre, the hotel gives you three different restaurants to choose from, as well as a cocktail bar, a champagne lounge and a pub. The spa offers a range of treatments, while up on the roof you’ll find not only the art deco gym, with sauna and steam room, but also – the piéce de résistance, of course – the open-air hot tub with views across the river Lagan to the Albert Clock and the landmark cranes of the shipyards.

Hilton Checkers, Los Angeles, USA
————————————–

The Hilton Checkers is an upscale boutique hotel in the heart of Los Angeles Downtown and within walking distance of the Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Staples Center and the Microsoft Theater.

Hotel Le Crystal Montreal, Montreal, Canada
————————————————

The spa is the star at the Hotel Le Crystal Montreal, up on the 12th floor. It offers you various treatments and therapies, a heated indoor pool and the sundeck hot tub. The tub is open all year round, and the striking views of Montreal’s downtown make it all too easy to while away hours just looking down at the city – but when you do feel like exploring, the hotel is just a short walk from the Rue Ste-Catherine shops, the Centre Bell cultural centre and many of Montreal’s most popular things to see and do.
