Best Greensboro Hotels with a Pool
Greensboro, in the Piedmont of North Carolina, has warm summers and cool winters, and that split matters more for its hotel pools than any other detail. Many outdoor pools here are seasonal, open only in the warmer months, while a handful of hotels have indoor pools you can use all year. Sheraton Greensboro has both, Hampton Inn & Suites Greensboro Downtown has a saltwater pool, and the O.Henry Hotel, rated 9.5, pairs its outdoor pool with a Mediterranean restaurant. The rest sit near the Coliseum, along Interstate 40 or close to Piedmont Triad Airport. This page sorts them by season and by area.
Greensboro is the third-largest city in North Carolina, part of the Piedmont Triad with Winston-Salem and High Point. Its downtown keeps the Woolworth building where the 1960 lunch-counter sit-ins began, now the International Civil Rights Center & Museum. The Greensboro Coliseum hosts sports and concerts, several universities shape the city, and Interstates 40 and 85 cross it, which explains the many hotels along their exits.
Where to stay
Indoor, seasonal and saltwater pools compared
Most people come to Greensboro for a reason other than the pool: a game or concert at the Greensboro Coliseum, a university visit, business near the airport or the furniture market in nearby High Point. That makes the hotel pool a bonus at the end of the day, and the key question is whether it will be open when you arrive. An indoor pool works year-round, while a seasonal one is best kept for summer trips.
If you are visiting between autumn and spring, an indoor pool is the safe choice. Sheraton Greensboro is the most complete option, with both an indoor and an outdoor pool, a 24-hour fitness center, the Skylite Cafe on site and a free airport shuttle, about 2.3 km from the Greensboro Coliseum. Hampton Inn & Suites Greensboro/Coliseum Area, rated 8.8, has an indoor pool, breakfast and pet-friendly rooms. Fairfield Inn & Suites Greensboro Wendover and Hilton Garden Inn Greensboro Airport also have indoor pools, the latter with newly renovated family rooms and a free airport shuttle.
Downtown, two hotels stand out for their pools and their ratings. The O.Henry Hotel, named after the writer born in Greensboro, scores 9.5, the best rating on this page, and offers an outdoor pool, a 24-hour fitness center and a Mediterranean restaurant. Hampton Inn & Suites Greensboro Downtown, rated 9.0, has a saltwater pool and rooms with kitchenettes, and it accepts pets, although parking there is paid. Both put you close to the downtown streets and the International Civil Rights Center & Museum, which I would not miss on a first visit. At the O.Henry, rooms also include a microwave and a small refrigerator.
Several hotels list seasonal outdoor pools, and they are fine choices for a summer trip. Hyatt Place Greensboro Downtown, rated 8.7, combines its seasonal pool with a family-friendly restaurant and pet-friendly rooms. Holiday Inn Greensboro Coliseum, off Interstate 40 at Exit 217, adds on-site dining. Holiday Inn Express & Suites Greensboro - I-40 at Wendover scores 8.8 and offers EV charging, and Holiday Inn Express Greensboro-East pairs its seasonal pool with a hot tub. Comfort Suites Greensboro-High Point is a practical base for the High Point furniture market, with free parking and pet-friendly rooms.
For a pool and a hot tub without seasonal limits listed, Drury Inn & Suites Greensboro is a strong pick: it has almost 900 reviews, an 8.7 rating, a swimming pool, a hot tub and a daily hot breakfast, and it is non-smoking and pet-friendly. Near Piedmont Triad Airport, Doubletree By Hilton Greensboro Airport offers an outdoor pool, family rooms and an airport shuttle, and La Quinta by Wyndham, off Interstate 40 at Exit 73, adds a shuttle, breakfast and pet-friendly rooms. For an early flight, I would choose between these and the Hilton Garden Inn, which has an indoor pool.
A traveler's perspectiveI would choose by the month of your trip. From late autumn to spring, I would book Sheraton Greensboro, with its indoor and outdoor pools, or Hampton Inn & Suites Coliseum Area if the Coliseum is your reason to come. In summer, the O.Henry Hotel is my first pick, with the best rating here, an outdoor pool and a restaurant on site. If you prefer saltwater to chlorine, Hampton Inn & Suites Greensboro Downtown is the one to look at, with kitchenettes for a longer stay.
