Pool day passes in Lisbon give you rooftop access across the city for the day, without booking a room. Four hotels sell non-guest pool access, from an infinity pool facing the Tagus River in Belém to a morning swim-and-breakfast deal for €25 in the city centre.
Prices range from €25 to €95 per person depending on the hotel and time of day. Most passes include a sunbed and towel. Pricier options add food, drinks, or full spa access including jacuzzi, sauna, and hammam.
Book SUD Lisboa weeks ahead in summer; it sells out consistently. The other three hotels are more accessible, and some stay open through autumn and winter.
- SUD Lisboa (€45–€95 / about $48–$100). Tagus-facing infinity pool with DJ sets. The city's most exclusive pool venue.

Can non-guests use hotel pools in Lisbon?
Yes, but the options are limited. Lisbon isn't a beach resort city, so fewer hotels offer day passes than you'd find in coastal destinations. The four hotels above all sell non-guest pool access directly through their websites. Booking in advance is essential for SUD Lisboa; the others are generally easier to access, though weekend availability can be tight in peak season.
Where to stay in Lisbon
Chiado and Bairro Alto are the most enjoyable central neighbourhoods to be based in: cobblestoned streets, independent restaurants, and an easy tram down to Belém. Bairro Alto Hotel is a design-forward boutique on one of the city's best streets. For river views and the SUD Lisboa day pass nearby, staying in Belém or Santos is sensible; Memmo Príncipe Real is a rooftop-pool boutique in Príncipe Real above Bairro Alto.
Alfama suits those who want to be in the oldest part of the city, but the streets are steep and the taxis less convenient. Most pool day pass venues on this page are within a 10-minute Uber of anywhere in central Lisbon, so the choice of base comes down to what neighbourhood atmosphere suits you best rather than pool access.
SUD Lisboa
SUD Lisboa is the most high-profile pool day pass in the city. Located in Belém on the waterfront, it has an infinity pool facing the Tagus River and the 25 de Abril Bridge. DJ sets, cocktails, and a well-dressed crowd make it a see-and-be-seen venue rather than a quiet swim spot.
Full-day passes run €95 and include the pool, sunbed, towel, locker, and snacks and drinks at set times. Half-day options at €45 appear in the lower season from October to March. Reservations are essential; walk-ins are almost never accepted during summer.

For more options within Portugal, Porto has a growing day pass scene worth exploring. The resort hotels in the Algarve offer larger pools with ocean views and are well set up for day visitors. Cascais is just 30 minutes by train from Lisbon and has a more coastal feel if you want sea air with your swim.
