Indoor Swimming Pools

ITC Maurya, Hyatt Regency, Le Meridien, Trident Gurgaon all have outdoor swimming pools. Do any of the 5*s in DEL have indoor pools? How about other cities for that matter?

None of the "5*s" in DEL that I use have a fully indoor regular full pool -- which makes the pool (unless heated) largely useless in December and January and also unreliable during the monsoon season.

None of the major Indian business cities' hotels I have used have a full-sized indoor pool.

Srinagar and Shimla aren't what I would call major Indian business cities but those used to be -- and may still be -- amongst the limited exceptions in India.

Have a 15 hr layover in Delhi and I'd like to pay for a day pass at a hotel spa/gym.

Does anyone have an update on indoor pools (know the Oberoi has one but can only be used by hotel guests)? The weather is to cold at night for outdoor pools.

Any other ideas for thing to do from around dinner time to midnight?

The Oberoi has three pools. The large ones are outdoors, but there is a single-lane lap pool in the fitness center.

Don't they have a day rate, or can you get some sort of spa treatment and then use the pool?

I called - residents only unfortunately. I can't seem to find any other hotel with an indoor pool.
