Art Ovation Hotel

Very pretty, quiet, discreet rooftop pool. Towels, water, and food/drink menus available. Can change in ladies' room. Not the best for families with kids - better for couples, friends, or even by yourself.

Great, quiet, pretty

The pool is nice and clean and the atmosphere is great.  

Great atmosphere 

Everything was painless. Pool was busy enough to be fun but not overly full. Few kids, which is fantastic. Food and service were good too :). I will be back. Thank you! 

Very chill

Relaxing Day 😎

Beautiful rooftop pool and bar.  Glenn is amazing and ran his butt off all day in the heat!
Beautiful hotel and pool

Location 

Wonderful view, inviting pool, drinks and a wonderful lunch

Great location

Would 100% go here again.  Was easy from the moment we pulled up to Valet our car. There was a separate bar area - that made it easy if you wanted to drink or eat there instead of by the pool - but they had staff that would come around & take  & deliver your orders to you as well.  The lounge chairs were very comfortable & the umbrellas were great for when you wanted some shade. The pool was the perfect size & easy entry.  Which was great for my guest who has some mobility issues.

I would recommend getting there early - as the lounge chairs got taken early.

Lovely...

The view and drinks were great! It was a bit hot and small of area.  I enjoyed but would probably look for another place next time.

Nice view

We live locally but wanted to do something different to celebrate our anniversary. We enjoyed our day so much and we truly felt like we were on vacation for the day while our kids were in school. We can't wait to go back! 

Awesome day out!
