"Something about a rooftop in downtown Houston feels fancy—even more fancy when you add an infinity pool, a Texas-shaped lazy river, multiple cabanas, a full service bar, and an expansive view of Discovery Green park’s lake and trails below. Feel on top of the world (or at least the sixth floor) and book a day pass to the Marriott Marquis Altitude Rooftop & Pool. It’ll set you back around $90 with tax, but you can use the pool until 10pm and enjoy all of the Tex-Mex snacks and frozen daiquiris you can stomach. " - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
