Hotels with Indoor Pools in Swindon for Families
3 family-friendly hotels with indoor pool in Swindon . Handpicked for families who want the best.
An indoor pool makes a stay in Wiltshire work in any weather, and in Swindon three published hotels on this page list one: Village Hotel Swindon, Holiday Inn Swindon and Swindon Blunsdon House Hotel. All three list family suites and a spa or wellness area, and they differ in style, from a modern health and fitness club hotel to a countryside hotel on 20 acres with a playground, a game room and tennis courts. I have compared them on the pool, the extras for children, the setting and what the listings leave unsaid, such as pool hours and the rules for young swimmers.
Swindon is a Wiltshire town that grew around the Great Western Railway works, and today it is a practical base for families exploring the surrounding countryside. Coate Water Country Park offers space to walk and play, and several hotels sit outside the centre with their own leisure facilities. It is not a city of grand sights, but it works well for a relaxed stay where the hotel itself is part of the plan.

🏊Three Swindon hotels with an indoor pool
An indoor pool lets children swim whatever the weather, and for a family that matters in the British climate. All three hotels here pair it with a spa or wellness area and family suites. Blunsdon House adds a playground, a game room and tennis courts, Holiday Inn is pet-friendly, and Village Hotel has three dining options. None of the listings gives pool hours, depth or the rules for children, so ask each hotel before you book.
Village Hotel Swindon is the most reviewed hotel on this page, rated 7.7 from 2,161 reviews. This three-star hotel has a modern health and fitness club with an indoor pool, a spa and a wellness area, three dining options, on-site parking and spacious rooms with a Sealy bed and a flat-screen TV, with free WiFi throughout. Family suites are available. Its score is the lowest of the three, so read recent comments on the booking page. I would choose it for a family who want a leisure club with a pool, several places to eat and parking at the door.
Holiday Inn Swindon by IHG is a modern four-star hotel rated 7.8 from 1,999 reviews. Its listing mentions family suites, a leisure centre with an indoor swimming pool, a spa and wellness area, an international restaurant, a scenic garden terrace, a stylish bar, air-conditioned rooms with a flat-screen TV and tea and coffee facilities, and a pet-friendly policy. I would choose it for a family who want a dependable chain hotel with a pool, a garden terrace and the option of bringing a dog, and I would ask about the pet rules before booking.
Swindon Blunsdon House Hotel, BW Premier Collection, is set in 20 acres of Wiltshire countryside, and it is the most family-oriented of the three. This four-star hotel is rated 8.2 from 1,584 reviews and offers countryside views, a bar, a restaurant and a leisure club with an indoor pool, a spa and a wellness area, plus a playground, a game room and tennis courts. Free WiFi is available throughout and family suites are offered. I would choose it for a family with school-age children who want to swim, play tennis and use the playground, in a setting away from the town centre.
The three hotels have different strengths. Blunsdon House has the highest rating, 8.2, and the widest range of activities, with a playground, a game room and tennis courts. Holiday Inn is pet-friendly and has a garden terrace. Village Hotel has three dining options and parking. All three have an indoor pool, a spa or wellness area and family suites. Because none of the listings states pool hours or the age limit for unaccompanied children, it is worth writing to the hotel before you travel, especially if your children are young or not yet confident swimmers.
Parent's take
If I were booking Swindon for a family that wants to swim, I would choose Swindon Blunsdon House Hotel for its indoor pool, its playground, its game room and its tennis courts, rated 8.2 from 1,584 reviews. For a simpler stay with a dog, I would pick Holiday Inn Swindon, with its pool and garden terrace. I would ask either hotel for the pool hours and the rules for children.
