Best Swimming Pool Hotels in Aurangabad
7 family-friendly hotels with swimming pool in Aurangabad . Handpicked for families who want the best.
Seven hotels in Aurangabad have an outdoor swimming pool, mostly clustered in the four- and five-star tier where the Ellora Caves heat makes a pool less a luxury than a daily necessity. Hyatt Place Aurangabad Airport keeps its pool open year-round, three kilometres from the terminal, while Ambassador Ajanta Hotel pairs a large outdoor pool with a sunken bar and sauna a 20-minute drive out. Gateway Aurangabad adds pool-view balconies to five-star rooms, and Treat Imperial Aurangabad City Center takes the unusual step of putting its pool on the rooftop, above the city rather than beside it. Expect an outdoor pool, not a water park; none of these run slides or dedicated kids' pools.
Aurangabad's climate does most of the selling for its pool hotels: long dry stretches, high daytime temperatures for much of the year, and an itinerary built around outdoor cave and fort visits that leave visitors wanting to cool off by mid-afternoon. The pool hotels sit in two clusters, the airport corridor, convenient for short stays bookending a flight, and the older city core nearer Bibi Ka Maqbara, better suited to families spending several days working through the caves circuit at a slower pace.

🏊Why Aurangabad is Great for Hotels with Swimming Pool
Plan pool time for early afternoon, after the morning's caves or fort visit and before the evening cools enough for a walk. Ellora Caves sit 30 to 33 kilometres from most of these seven hotels, meaning a morning trip usually wraps by 1 or 2 p.m., leaving the rest of the day free. Hyatt Place's year-round pool is the most reliable option if your visit falls outside the main season, since some Aurangabad hotels reduce pool hours or close for maintenance in cooler months; confirm directly if you're travelling outside peak season.
The Fern Residency's pairing of an outdoor pool with an indoor play area suits families with a toddler who can't yet swim unsupervised, giving a fallback that doesn't depend on the weather. Older children get more from Gateway Aurangabad's pool-view balconies and running track, or Ambassador Ajanta's sunken bar setup, both of which read more like a proper resort pool than a hotel afterthought. Treat Imperial's rooftop pool is the most novel of the seven, though it's smaller and better suited to a quick dip than an afternoon of swimming laps.
Pool access generally scales with hotel category here: four-star Lemon Tree Hotel and The Fern Residency include a standard outdoor pool as part of a mid-range family stay, while five-star Gateway Aurangabad and Welcomhotel by ITC Hotels add poolside extras, a sunken bar, a running track, pet-friendly rooms, for a bigger jump in price. For a short caves-focused stay, the four-star tier usually delivers everything a family actually uses around the pool, and the extra cost of the five-star tier only pays off if you're spending a full extra day poolside rather than out at the caves.
Parent's take
We picked Hyatt Place Aurangabad Airport specifically because the pool stays open year-round, and after a hot morning at Daulatabad Fort the kids were in the water within twenty minutes of checking in. Being three kilometres from the airport also meant our early flight out two days later didn't require an extra transfer; we just walked from the pool to packing.

Why families love Hyatt Place Aurangabad Airport
Families staying here will find the year-round pool the standout feature, since it stays open regardless of season, unlike some Aurangabad hotels that close theirs. The four-cuisine restaurant with halal and vegetarian options keeps mealtime disagreements to a minimum, and fresh pastries at breakfast are an easy win with kids who skip the buffet's savoury side. At three kilometres from the airport, it also suits a short first or last night.

Why families love Gateway Aurangabad - Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar
Families staying here will find the private balconies overlooking the pool useful for keeping an eye on older kids swimming from the room, and the running track gives restless teenagers somewhere to burn energy before a long car ride to the caves. Bringing the family dog is genuinely possible here, unlike most Aurangabad hotels. The tub in the en suite bathroom makes bath time easier for families travelling with toddlers.

Why families love Treat Imperial Aurangabad City Center
Families staying here will find the sofa bed a real space-saver for a third child sharing the room, and the rooftop pool with sun terrace makes for an easy late-afternoon wind-down after sightseeing. The vegetarian-only kitchen keeps things simple for families who eat that way already, though it limits choice for those who don't. At four kilometres from the airport, it also works for a short pre-flight night.

Welcomhotel by ITC Hotels, Rama International, Aurangabad is a 5-star hotel with a 0.6-mile running track and garden-view rooms, 2.5 miles from Aurangabad Airport. Rooms include a seating area, an electric kettle and a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries.

Why families love Welcomhotel by ITC Hotels, Rama International, Aurangabad
Families staying here will find the running track a good outlet for kids with pent-up energy after a day of temple-hopping, and garden-view rooms give younger children something to look at that isn't a car park. The soundproof banquet halls mean an event elsewhere in the hotel won't carry through to family rooms at bedtime. At 19 miles, Ellora Caves is a manageable day trip; the tour desk can arrange the car.

The Fern Residency Aurangabad has an outdoor swimming pool and an indoor play area, two kilometres from Aurangabad Airport. Family rooms include a work desk, a minibar and free WiFi, and the restaurant serves Chinese, Indian and Asian dishes across lunch, dinner and high tea. Guests can also arrange bicycles from the on-site bike parking, and free on-site parking covers the rest of the stay. Bibi Ka Maqbara is seven kilometres away.
Why families love The Fern Residency Aurangabad - Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar
Families staying here will find the indoor play area a lifesaver on the days the Aurangabad heat rules out the outdoor pool, and having both options under one roof means fewer negotiations about what comes next. The kids' club and playground extend that further for families with more than one age group to keep busy. At two kilometres from the airport, it also works well as a first or last night before flying out.

Lemon Tree Hotel sits in the heart of Aurangabad, four kilometres from Chikkalthana Airport, with an outdoor swimming pool and a spa. Every room overlooks the pool or the garden, some with a private balcony, and comes with an LCD satellite TV and tea and coffee facilities. The fitness centre and hotel gardens round out the stay, and Citrus Café serves international cuisine. Bibi Ka Maqbara is 9.4 kilometres away.
Why families love Lemon Tree Hotel, Aurangabad
Families staying here will find the pool-view rooms cut down on the daily negotiation about who gets to watch the water while the other parent gets ready. The spa gives one parent an hour off while the other handles pool duty, and Citrus Café's international menu means picky eaters aren't stuck with one cuisine for the whole stay. At 9.4 kilometres, Bibi Ka Maqbara is a short taxi ride rather than a walk.
Ambassador Ajanta Hotel, Aurangabad
Aurangabad
Very Good
427 reviews
Ambassador Ajanta Hotel is a 4-star property with a large outdoor pool, a sunken bar and a sauna, a 20-minute drive from Aurangabad Airport. Rooms come with cable TV, a fridge, tea and coffee facilities, and bathrobes in the private bathroom. Guests can book the tennis and squash courts or the fitness centre, and the multi-cuisine restaurant serves Indian, Chinese and European dishes. Ellora Caves are 30 kilometres away; Ajanta Caves, 90 kilometres.
Why families love Ambassador Ajanta Hotel, Aurangabad
Families staying here will find the large outdoor pool and sunken bar the easiest way to fill an afternoon between temple visits, and the tennis and squash courts give older kids something active beyond the water. Bathrobes in every room simplify the pool-to-room routine for younger children who hate getting dressed twice. At 90 kilometres, Ajanta Caves make a long day trip, so most families pair this stay with Ellora instead, 30 kilometres out.
💡Tips for Choosing a Hotel with Swimming Pool in Aurangabad
- 1Head to the pool right after your morning caves visit rather than saving it for evening. Ellora Caves trips from most pool hotels wrap by early afternoon, leaving the hottest part of the day free for swimming.
- 2Book Hyatt Place Aurangabad Airport if your trip falls outside peak season. Its pool runs year-round, unlike some Aurangabad hotels that reduce hours or close for maintenance in cooler months.
- 3Choose The Fern Residency if you have a non-swimming toddler. Its indoor play area gives a backup when the pool isn't practical, without leaving the property.
- 4Request a pool-facing room at Gateway Aurangabad or Lemon Tree Hotel if you want to supervise kids in the water from your balcony without going downstairs.
- 5Try Treat Imperial's rooftop pool for a short evening dip rather than an afternoon swim. It's smaller than the ground-level pools at Ambassador Ajanta or Gateway Aurangabad.
