Someone recently staying here mentioned that a hotel across the street didn't mind them using their pool... Any one have any more information; like does the Waldorf have an agreement with any place for facilities to be used?

Was just at hotel and yes it's in final stages of being sold and feeling is he's really going to fix up the hotel and finally build the spa and pool.

Thanks for the update! Did they also confirm whether it’s contracted for the Hotel to stay part of Hilton?

I know the david citadel across the street has an official policy NOT to allow anyone staying at the waldorf to use their pool. I tried. They did let us use the gym (the one at the waldorf is tiny) but they charged an exorbitant amount.

I ended up just using the YMCA pool down the street. You can buy a daily or weekly pass for pretty cheap.

The YMCA is very close and has a decent pool, that is the best option.
I was the Best,still the Best, and will always be the Best.

Have a revenue stay booked and the hotel wants to charge $120 a night for a cot. Is that normal?
