📖

Full description

Piscina delle Rose is one of Rome's few public outdoor swimming pools, located in the planned EUR district and dating to the 1960 Olympic era. It gets heavily used by locals during summer weekends, and reviewers note that finding a sun lounger can be difficult at peak times given the lack of alternatives nearby.

English-speaking staff and a generally pleasant atmosphere are mentioned favourably despite the crowds. It offers a straightforward, budget-friendly way to cool off away from the more touristed parts of the city.

Reviews

Great Olympic pool if you have time and are looking for a swim during the week. Avoid at weekends. Facilities are clean and well looked after. Good bar and helpful staff. Prices are very high at €10 for 1h30 or €17(!!) for 3h00 with umbrella and sun bed. I politely mentioned I thought it was excessive at the entrance…
