Top 9 Hotel Pools in Vancouver

Vancouver is a gorgeous oceanside city in British Columbia on the west coast that offers a long list of exciting attractions. Typical hotels with cookie-cutter rooms are not the thing in this Canadian destination, as boutique flare and hyper-detailed, elaborate rooms wow guests at pretty reasonable prices for the most part. Commonly, there’ll be a tranquil indoor pool, or one on a greenery-filled terrace, offering views of the city. How awesome does it sound to take a swim while enjoying the skyline? These are the hotels with the very best pools in Vancouver.

Windows accent the space so sunlight floods in, making it a truly lovely place to wind down at the beginning or end of the day.
