How to choose a hotel pool

Ask about the temperature

Few hotels publish it. Babies and toddlers get cold fast in a cool pool.

Shallow water matters

A kids' pool or zero-depth entry beats a bigger pool that starts at 3 feet.

Check the hours

Many pools close at 10 or 11 PM and some open late in the morning.

Slides have rules

Pool slides often run only at set times or when a lifeguard is on duty.

Count the extras

Free breakfast and a fridge or kitchen save more than a cheaper rate.
