Looking for a hotel with pools?

‘Does it have a pool?’ is arguably one of the most common questions when booking a stay in any location. These hotels offer a great way to keep active during your holiday without having to hit the gym. Indoor pools allow you to practice your backstroke come rain or shine, whereas outdoor options allow you to relax on a sun lounger after swimming a few lengths.

Our room was cleaned and house keeping made our bed every day which is much better than the more expensive hotels we’ve stayed in!! Waffle House next door is AMAZING!! Staff were polite and friendly. Our room had a bathtub which was a lovely treat after a long flight. Ice machine in a good location.
