From its drab concrete exterior, you’d never know the Revere Hotel Boston Common hides this discreet, lively treat on the roof of a seventh-story outcropping. Between dips in the glass-enclosed pool, the sun-soaked scene’s cast of firm, tan, day pass-toting beach bods recline in crisp white cabanas amid lush greenery and quirky contemporary art sculptures, where they’re plied with tropical cocktails and light, refreshing bar bites. This roof is on fire.
