Hilton Americas-Houston

I'm nearly certain the pool is a full 25-yards long. My stroke count was right on my usual for 25 yards. The T's were closer to the wall than normal, which took some adjustment for flip timing. The pool was packed with kids in the evening but empty between 6 and 8 AM. It's about as good a pool as you could wish for in a hotel!

The one lane reserved for lap swimming is narrower than standard. Though it’s posted as 25y long, I think it’s shorter than that.

The pool does feel 3 or 4 feet shorter than the posted 25y. I found all three lanes open, including the preferred center lane,during my visit. It’s a first-class pool, maybe the best hotel pool I've used; with infinity-edge, washover sides, good turn grips, great markings and lighting, wonderfully lavish surroundings, and a remarkable view of Houston skyscraper tops.
