Advice on 'Best' Hotel in Europe with pool for Ambassador Weekend
I would love some help... We are looking for a weekend at an ICH with a pool/outside sun area and I'm struggling as I can't seem to see which hotels have this. Maybe not many?
We are hoping to go end of June and the Paris hotels at around 700 are a bit too pricey, but otherwise we are flexible to anywhere in Europe with a pool. Club room would be wonderful but not necessary.
I know it's a personal choice, but if anyone has any advice I'd really appreciate it! Thank you!

No "pool" that I've seen, but great sunning area and swimming in the Med. About 300 euro per night in June and perfect weather. The Carleton is a bit "dated" and needs some renovation, but a good use for the BOGO.

It's certainly a dramagic space in terms of view, but in functional terms is suffers from the small footprint the architecture allows. The pool is quite small, and gets rammed. I think perhaps the property's owners have over-sold the health club membership.
