Located in the midwest state of Wisconsin, Milwaukee is a city that embodies blue-collar America in the best way. It’s a thriving, picturesque city particularly famous for its brewing industry that services the thirst of Americans. Named brands such as Miller and Pabst are brewed here, and the city’s baseball team is called the Brewers in tribute to this traditional industry. Outside of its famous breweries, there’s plenty to see and do around Milwaukee - the architecturally spectacular Milwaukee Art Museum is hugely popular, as is the science-based Discovery World, a hugely popular destination particularly among kids. After a day of sight-seeing around this intriguing city, you’ll appreciate the chance to spend an afternoon or evening lazing by the pool or even swimming a few laps. Here, we have provided you with a list of the top hotels for that purpose. So read on to learn more about Milwaukee hotels with pools.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and access to pool. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on October 29, 2024.
