Typical prices across the country run from € 90 to € 160 depending on where you go, which is a wider gap than most travellers expect within one country.

What to look for in hotels with a pool in China
Every property in this list reports a swimming pool. That ranges from a full outdoor pool with a bar to a small indoor plunge pool used mostly by the spa. In cities the pool is often on the roof or in the basement and can be modest; at coastal and resort properties it is usually the centre of the place.
Before you book, check
- Whether the pool is heated and whether it is open in the month you are travelling — many outdoor city pools close from autumn to spring.
- Opening hours. Hotel pools frequently close by 20:00 and some are reserved for spa guests at set times.
- Whether children are allowed, and whether there is a separate shallow pool if you need one.
- Whether use is included. A few properties charge for the pool as part of a spa entry fee.
A pool listed as an amenity can be indoors, unheated, or three metres long. Look at the photo gallery on the hotel itself rather than the filter, and check the review score for facilities before you make the pool the reason you book.
Worth it for: Families with an afternoon to fill, anyone travelling in heat, and long stays where you want somewhere to go without leaving the building.
