Is there any way to use a hotel pool for the day or just for a few hours? I know that a few websites exists where some independent hotels or even individuals provide day passes for their pools, but those are rare and focused on resort style properties. I’m looking to use a plain hotel pool for a few hours. Do any of the major chains offer that?
If not, would it be doable to use a free night certificate for a property with a pool, and then split that with another family possibly to lower the cost? Or would the hotel keep track of the number of people using the pool per room? What if one fam goes in the afternoon and the other in the evening or something like that?
