Hotel with Swimming Pool Heated Pool Indoor Pool Summary of reviews related to the 'Pool' categoryGuests have varied opinions on the pool facilities at DoubleTree By Hilton Brighton Metropole. Some found the pool to be gorgeous, fantastic and loved it. Others were disappointed by the closures and missed out on swimming during their stay.

Guests suggested improvements, such as adding a screen between the reception and the pool to make it less public. Nevertheless, guests were impressed with the addition of a steam room and sauna in the swim area. Some people booked the hotel for the sole reason of swimming, while others were compensated for the lack of pool facilities by being given a sea view. Swimming in the warm water was highly recommended by others; however, a few noticed that the pool was not open to children after 17.30. Overall, the hotel's pool and spa facilities have mixed reviews, but most agree the location, staff and breakfast were good and there are good function halls in the hotel. Show more

Hotel with Swimming Pool Indoor Pool Summary of reviews related to the 'Pool' categoryThe Leonardo Royal Hotel Brighton Waterfront has a swimming pool, sauna and steam room, as well as a gym for guests looking to stay active during their stay. While some guests loved the pool and found it to be a fun experience for children, others mentioned that it was quite small and could do with an update. The curved edges at the bottom also made swimming up to the edge difficult. Be prepared for large crowds and busy changing rooms during peak times with some guests reporting an uncomfortable experience due to the number of people present. While the pool and ‘spa’ didn’t impress everyone, the gym and leisure opportunities were praised. Guests also noted some issues with the behavior of other guests in the pool area, but overall it seems that guests who enjoyed using the facilities had a good time. Show more
