Book here for a heated roof pool with a poolside bar in the Central Business District, which the hotel says stays open all year. The floor and the access rules are both unpublished.
The pool
On the roof of the hotel at 330 Loyola Ave, in the Central Business District, you get a pool with a patio and deck beside it. The hotel describes it as outdoor and heated, with views over downtown New Orleans. It publishes neither the floor nor who besides guests can swim.
Our take
Several hotels on our list sell day passes, including Virgin Hotels New Orleans from $10 and Sheraton New Orleans from $20. This Holiday Inn publishes no day pass and no price, so assume the pool is for guests until the hotel tells you otherwise.
The upside is the setup: a heated pool, a deck, and the Clarinet Lounge and Poolside Bar on site. The downside is the lack of detail. The floor is missing, as are hours, and the hotel's pages give no access policy.
Good to know
- Heated pool, as the hotel's own site states
- Poolside bar plus Clarinet Lounge on site
- Hotel says the pool is available year-round
- Accessible route from the public entrance to the pool
The catches
- Floor isn't published
- Day pass and non-guest access aren't published
Best forStaying guests after a heated roof pool and a poolside bar, without paying for a bigger-name hotel.
Skip it ifYou need a confirmed day pass, a published floor or set hours.
Getting in
Hotel guests are the clear group who can swim here. Day pass, price and any rule for visitors who aren't staying are all unpublished.
If you aren't booking a room, call the hotel before you go. We found no listing on a pass seller for this pool.
Tips
- Ask the front desk for pool hours at the time of reservation, as the hotel doesn't list them.
- Winter highs in New Orleans average 16.9°C in January, so the heating matters more from December to February.
Before you go. Call the hotel to ask if visitors outside the guest list can use the pool, and what the hours are. Neither is published.
