York Hotels with a Pool
Every hotel on this page has a pool — it is the one amenity they all share. The seven properties range from the 3-star Best Western Kilima Hotel, where the indoor pool comes with free parking and rates from £54, to the 5-star Grand, York, with its elegant setting and a 9.1 guest rating. Most are 4-star, and the average rating across the set is 8.5, so you can expect a well-run leisure club wherever you choose.
Swimming Pool Hotels in York City Centre
The city centre options are limited but strong. The Grand, York, sits beside the station, putting the Minster and Shambles within a short walk, and its 9.1 rating is the highest in the set. The Milner York is also rail-adjacent, with a pool and leisure club steps from the station and York's museums. For a riverside stay, the Novotel York Centre is a 5-minute walk from the bus station and has its own pool — just factor in a slightly longer stroll into the very heart of the city.

Swimming Pool Hotels in York
York is a city of two halves for a swim: you can wake up in a grand railway hotel beside the station, do lengths before the Minster bells, then walk into the historic core; or you can trade the crowds for a countryside spa where the pool looks out over gardens. The seven swimming pool hotels here stretch from the budget-friendly Best Western Kilima Hotel — a 20-minute stroll from the Minster and Shambles — to the five-star Grand, York, just minutes from the station.
Most of the set sits in the four-star bracket, with the 5-star Grand leading the ratings at 9.1, matched by the 4-star country house Middlethorpe Hall & Spa. Prices start at £54 and climb to £524, so there is a lane for every budget. The river runs through it too: the Novotel York Centre sits right by the water, while the Delta Hotels By Marriott York looks out over the racecourse.
The bottom line
This set suits travellers who want to swim on their York break, whether that is a quick dip at a budget hotel or a full spa day at a grand property. If your priority is parking, family-friendly facilities, or staying in the very heart of the historic centre, you might prefer to browse those dedicated collections instead.
