Laval Hotels with an Indoor Pool
Laval, just north of Montreal, has five hotels on this page with an indoor pool, and they split between two shopping districts: Carrefour Laval and Centropolis. Best Western Laval-Montreal & Conference Centre has a year-round indoor pool and the most reviews, Grand Times Hotel Laval - Centropolis has the best rating at 8.6, and Holiday Inn Laval Montreal faces Carrefour Laval with a pool and spa facilities. Ômage Hotel adds a lounge and restaurant, and Hampton Inn & Suites Laval accepts pets and serves a free hot breakfast. All five are an easy drive from Montreal-Trudeau Airport or central Montreal.
Laval covers Île Jésus, just north of Montreal, between the Rivière des Prairies and the Rivière des Mille Îles. It is a city of residential neighbourhoods and large shopping centres, linked to Montreal by the metro and several bridges. For a family, it offers a calmer base than central Montreal, with easier parking, the Cosmodome for rainy days and quick access to the attractions of the wider metropolitan area.
Breakfast, Spa or a Bar by the Pool
I compare Laval's indoor pool hotels by what comes with the pool, since every hotel here has one: breakfast, a spa, a restaurant or room for a pet. Two include a free hot breakfast, one adds spa and wellness facilities, and two have a restaurant or bar on site. In a city where winter lasts several months, an indoor pool is the most reliable way to give children a swim, and Laval's hotels are often more spacious and easier to park at than those in central Montreal, a short drive or metro ride to the south.
Best Western Laval-Montreal & Conference Centre is my first pick for families, with an 8.3 rating from almost 1,500 reviews, the most on this page. Its indoor pool is open year-round, and the hotel adds a gym and a complimentary hot breakfast buffet. Rooms have pillowtop beds and fridges, and some have balconies overlooking the hotel's interior. It sits 7.5 km from the city centre. A free hot breakfast and a pool open in every season cover the two things most families look for first, which makes it an easy choice for a short winter stay with children in Laval.
Grand Times Hotel Laval - Centropolis holds the best score here, 8.6, and is my choice for couples or adults travelling together. It offers air-conditioned rooms with city views, an indoor pool, a fitness centre and a bar, and sits near Centropolis, Laval's open-air district of shops and restaurants, with easy access to Montréal-Trudeau International Airport. Ômage Hotel, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel rated 8.3, has an indoor swimming pool, a fitness centre, a lounge and a restaurant serving American and local cuisine. Both suit travellers who want a swim and a good dinner without driving into Montreal at the end of the day.
Holiday Inn Laval Montreal by IHG, across from Carrefour Laval Shopping Center, is the only hotel on this page that adds spa and wellness facilities to its indoor pool, along with a restaurant, a bar and a fitness centre. It also offers easy access to the airport and is described as a convenient base for families and couples. Its 7.8 rating is the lowest here, so I would book it mainly for its location next to Carrefour Laval and for its spa facilities, rather than for the rooms themselves. In winter, having the mall across the street is a real advantage with children.
Hampton Inn & Suites Laval, rated 8.2, is the pool hotel I would pick when travelling with a dog, since it is the only one on this page that accepts pets. It has an indoor pool, a fitness centre and a complimentary hot breakfast, with easy access to local attractions and nearby Montreal. To choose between all five, I look at the district first: Holiday Inn faces Carrefour Laval, Grand Times sits near Centropolis, and Best Western lies 7.5 km from the city centre. Then breakfast decides it, as only Best Western and Hampton Inn include a hot breakfast in their descriptions.
A traveler's takeIf I were planning a winter weekend in Laval with children, I would book Best Western Laval-Montreal for its year-round indoor pool and free hot breakfast. For a quieter adult stay, I would choose Grand Times Hotel Laval - Centropolis instead, with the best rating here, city views and a bar near Centropolis. My advice: check pool hours at check-in, since many hotels close the pool in the late evening.
