Editor's note
Equinox Hotel New York stands out with its dual pool offering: a stunning rooftop outdoor pool boasting incredible city and Hudson River views, perfect for leisure and soaking in the urban landscape, and a meticulously designed 25-yard indoor saltwater lap pool geared towards performance and recovery. The outdoor pool creates a private club atmosphere, while the indoor facility emphasizes wellness, featuring precise temperature control and revitalizing saltwater. Although the outdoor pool is not heated in winter, the year-round availability of both options ensures a premium pool experience focused on both relaxation and physiological benefits.

Why it's on the list
The Equinox Hotel Hudson Yards features one indoor, heated pool. It is open year-round and welcomes children. While no specific size is provided, it offers a consistent swimming option regardless of the season.
Why it's not higher
Guest feedback indicates some dissatisfaction with the pool experience. The lounging space around the pool can be consistently busy, and one guest found the pool "a complete no-go".
