Consider The Otis if you're staying near campus rather than downtown. A ResortPass day pass costs non-guests $45 per adult, though the hotel publishes little else about the pool.

The pool

The Otis, in West University at 1901 San Antonio St, is away from the downtown cluster where most pools on our list sit. The day pass is sold on ResortPass at $45 per adult. Floor, hours and season aren't published by the hotel.

Our take

It is the only pool in this group outside downtown, which helps if your plans center on the university area. At $45 it sits between Omni's $40 and Fairmont's $50.

The downside is detail. With no published floor, hours or season, you can't plan a swim around the page alone. Contact the hotel before buying a pass.

Good to know

  • $45 per adult day pass on ResortPass

The catches
