Italian City break with pool

[Welshchick]

Does anyone have a recommendation for an Italian city break? Looking for a hotel with a pool. Would be in June/July with my teen daughter. Thinking of 2/3/4 nights and don’t mind a split stay. Any recommendations would be great! 😊

outskirts of Rome tend to have some pools

Is the focus the rest and relaxation or sightseeing in the city? Venice has the lido, so beaches and some hotels have pools. I am pretty sure all the cities will have hotels with pools. I would go somewhere easily accessible, with a short transfer when you get there. By that I mean somewhere like Florence or Lucca normally means flying into Pisa and then taking the train, I wouldn't chose that for a super short stay.

I think the very things that attract one to many Italian cities (the architecture, museums, intimate streets with local markets etc) preclude many hotels having pools. You may need to take a hotel outside the centre if this is important. But then this means you lose eg the loveliness of sunset on a rooftop bar in Florence when it feels you could reach out and touch the Duomo, or stepping out from your hotel into the alleyways and bridges of Venice.
Possibly a couple of nights in Venice and then a couple of nights up at the Lakes where you will find the pools, and the Italian Lakes are a sight to behold too. Bardolino is less than 2hrs from Marco Polo airport.
I did Rome/Florence/Venice with dd in late June after GCSEs and she loved the city centre hotels.

I’ve always found it difficult to find any pools in city hotels in Italy, I suppose for obvious reasons. But we’ve managed it in Como, Genoa and, oddly, Venice (really a huge jacuzzi in the courtyard but pretty cool for all that).

But really I wouldn’t be led by the pool – you should pick the city you want and then look for a pool afterwards. If you can get one in Venice then I imagine it must be possible in any city.

Not a city but Hotel la Palma in Stresa. Short hop from Milan.

Outskirts of Lucca (just outside the walls) has hotels with a pool. And it's a fab city.

Villa Angela in Taormina (owned by Jim Kerr, if you like a rockstar connection!).

The Royal Continental Hotel in Naples has a rooftop pool with fabulous views, as does its restaurant. The Hotel is on the seafront and directly opposite Castel dell'Ovo which is stunning. All other attractions in the city are easy to reach and mostly by foot. You can also get the ferry to Capri and go visit Pompeii easily by a short train journey.
