Coast Hotels' Destinations with Indoor Pools to Visit this Winter
For all of winter's many charms — quaint mountain ski resorts, cozy socks and sweaters, holiday movies, sledding, and tasty warm beverages — it's also, well, cold.
However, just because Old Man Winter has arrived, doesn't mean you can't enjoy a good dip in the pool! Several Coast Hotels properties across western Canada have indoor pools worthy of a wintertime swim, perfect for kids and kids-at-heart alike.
Coast Canmore Hotel & Conference Centre
There are lots (and lots!) of reasons to visit Canmore, especially in the winter. From the quaint and beautiful town to nearby Banff National Park to Kananaskis Country and every imaginable snowy adventure, you truly can't go wrong in this winter wonderland. Even better, when you stay at the Coast Canmore Hotel & Conference Centre, you can enjoy all the area has to offer and unwind in the newly renovated indoor pool and hot tub!
If you need more reasons to book a getaway in Canmore, we've got several. How about happy hour at Table Food + Drink Sunday through Thursday, pet-friendly accommodations, or the new fitness centre with Peloton bikes? Oh, you'll also be just one hour away from bustling Calgary. And during the winter months, don't miss complimentary s'mores at the community fire pit on Friday and Saturday evenings!
Coast Nisku Inn & Conference Centre
If you're visiting Edmonton and flying into YEG International Airport with kids — or kids at heart — it's hard to beat the Coast Nisku Inn & Conference Centre. Located just five minutes from the airport in the Nisku-Leduc Business Park, the hotel's convenience is unparalleled. Its amenities are pretty great, too, starting with the complimentary airport shuttle that runs 24 hours a day.
As soon as you walk in, you'll know this is no ordinary hotel. The 15,000-square-foot atrium features a bedrock river with multiple bridge crossings, plus an indoor water park with a pool, hot tub, and the star attraction, a 120-foot water slide. In addition, there's a top-of-the-line fitness centre open 24 hours a day, a hair salon, gift shop, and VLT machines and plenty of big screens in the Den Pub. Enjoy complimentary daily breakfast in Montana's BBQ & Bar, and bring Fido, too — this hotel is even dog friendly!
Coast Victoria Hotel & Marina by APA
British Columbia's capital understandably attracts lots of visitors from all over the world. The scenic, historic city has much to offer and the Coast Victoria Hotel & Marina by APA is the perfect jumping off point to experience it all. In fact, the waterfront location is so picturesque that you may find you're perfectly content not sightseeing at all!
Situated on the Outer Harbour, this modern urban hotel welcomes you in and makes you feel both pampered and right at home. Enjoy ocean views from your room and luxury bedding, work up a sweat in the gym, treat yourself to a meal (or two!) at Blue Crab Seafood House, and wind down in the unique indoor-outdoor pool with harbour views — the only one like it in Victoria!
Coast Kamloops Hotel & Conference Centre
Whether you're coming for the winter sports, sipping your way through the local wineries, visiting the BC Wildlife Park, or something else entirely, there are many great reasons to visit Kamloops in the winter. And the Coast Kamloops Hotel & Conference Centre is a fantastic basecamp for your stay, located just off the highway and within minutes of some of the area's best attractions. The hotel prides itself on offering guests everything they could possibly want during their stay, under one roof.
Inside the tropical atrium — which feels like a tropical island — you'll find a fitness centre, saltwater pool, hot tub, and sauna, plus a wading pool just for the little ones. There's also Romeo's Kitchen + Spirits, an onsite liquor store, and free parking. Pets are also welcome here.
Coast Oliver Hotel
The Okanagan Valley is often referred to as "Napa North" because of its abundance of wineries. Indeed, this is Canada's wine country, a unique arid environment with surprisingly dry, warm weather (perfect for getaways during the cold weather months!). Oliver is located in the very heart of the valley, minutes away from dozens of vineyards and wineries, not to mention its local Tuc-el-nuit Lake, hiking trails, golf courses, and much more.
At the heart of it all, the Coast Oliver Hotel beckons you with one-of-a-kind amenities and stylish, welcoming accommodations. For starters, the hotel is home to the only indoor pool in all of Oliver. Imagine spending your days touring wineries and hiking, then coming back to enjoy a dip in the indoor pool...in the deep of winter or any time of year.
In addition, the hotel has a gym and small business centre in the lobby. Enjoy a complimentary daily breakfast and if you'd prefer, some rooms even have kitchenettes. If dining out and enjoying the incredible local cuisine is on your agenda, many of Oliver's hottest restaurants are within walking distance. As with many other Coast Hotels properties, this one is also pet friendly!
You’ll also find splish splashing fun, with indoor pools at Coast Wenatchee Center Hotel, Coast Chilliwack Hotel by APA, Coast Edmonton Plaza Hotel by APA, Coast Lethbridge Hotel and Conference Centre, Coast Osoyoos Beach Hotel, Coast Prince George Hotel by APA, and Coast Hilltop Hotel. That’s more than a dozen great properties to choose from!
