Stay at a Luxury Hotel in Central Edinburgh

Which 4-Star and 5-Star Edinburgh Hotels Have Swimming Pool?

All of the luxury 4 & 5 star hotels with spa in Edinburgh also have swimming pools as part of the health centre. Fortunately, all of them are located in the City Centre but which is the best hotel with pool in Edinburgh?

All 5 Star Hotels with Pool in Edinburgh

• The landmark Balmoral Hotel on Princes Street has a 15-metre indoor swimming pool as part of the award-winning Balmoral Spa.
• The Sheraton Grand Hotel located in Festival Square has a top-floor, brightly lit 19m infinity-edge swimming pool surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass. The Sheraton's One Spa health centre also has the Hydropool, a unique, warm, outdoor rooftop pool (stainless steel) with gorgeous views of Edinburgh Castle.
• The railway Caledonian Hilton Hotel, located at the West End of Princes Street has the Living Well Health Club which includes a 12.5m indoor heated swimming pool.
• The Scotsman Hotel located on North Bridge, right next to Waverley Train Station, has Scotland's first stainless steel swimming pool in its basement.

All of these 4 and 5 star hotels with swimming pools receive consistently positive reviews. The health facilities are considered to be spotlessly clean and well maintained. The treatments are also very much in demand so it pays to pre-book.

In terms of quality of the hotel accommodation, the Balmoral Hotel is the best rated luxury hotel with a spa in this list, followed by the Caledonian Hilton hotel. While the Sheraton probably has the best swimming pool in the city and the only rooftop hydropool, as a luxury hotel, it is considered to be a little dated and in need of refurbishment.
