Our hotel experts have hand-picked their favourite selection of the best Edinburgh hotels with pools. From what is arguably Edinburgh's grandest hotel, The Balmoral, to a smart boutique in the heart of the city or a chic country house. What all the properties have in common are excellent facilities - beyond their indoor pools they also have spas, on-point service, and highly acclaimed restaurants. Ideal for a luxury couples' escape or just an indulgent weekend away.
