The hot and humid weather we’ve been having in Toronto will have many people making a beeline to the nearest pool. The City of Toronto operates several outdoor public swimming pools that are free of charge, with the exception of paying a small locker fee. If you are looking for pools that are 1) less crowded and 2) a little more upscale, and your besties don’t have backyard pools where you can drop in, you might want to fork over the daily rate to lounge at one of Toronto’s hotel pools. Below are some of the Toronto hotel pools open to the public for a daily fee:
