Verification
Hot tub
Fancy hot water? The hot tubs
These places don't have a confirmed heated pool, but they do have a hot tub: the water is hot all year round. A good way to relax in the warm.
Partner listings
These places were suggested to us directly by their owners. The heated pool is declared by them; they don't yet have enough guest reviews to join the selection.
Frequently asked questions
How I check
The word "heated" on a booking page isn't enough. Every place must have a rating of at least 8/10 (or 4/5) and carries one of these four levels.
Confirmed by guests
Guests mention the heated water in their reviews, with the season when they say so.
Confirmed by a reviewer
A journalist or guide who stayed there describes the heated pool.
Advertised only
The hotel or the platform says so, but I haven't yet found a review that confirms it.
Indoor pool
Heating isn't specified, but the water is sheltered from the wind and cold air. Ask for the temperature before you book.
Places I left out
I left these out because guests report water colder than advertised, or because no heating or indoor pool is mentioned.
