While there are plenty of swimming holes in Arizona where you can make a splash on a hot day, sometimes, a bit of luxury is just what the doctor ordered. If you’re looking for a slightly more upscale summer adventure, nothing quite compares to the Lylo Swim Club at Rise Uptown Hotel in Phoenix. By and large one of the best hotel pools in Arizona, this exclusive swimming spot is a must-visit.
The only boutique hotel in Uptown Phoenix, Rise is a mid-century paradise boasting in-room record players, neon signs, and an overarching sense of nostalgia that will whisk you back to yesteryear.
