During spring and summer, a nice vacation is always welcome—to soak up the warmth, sip something cool, and show off the prettiest swimsuit in your closet. Believe it or not, Mexico City has some great hotels where you can enjoy the pool, at least for a day.
There’s no need to book a night in their rooms, as they offer a day pass service: the key to rest and relaxation. Treat yourself to a moment and get away from the stress, without leaving the city.
Forget about driving for hours to escape the routine. This hotel on Reforma lets you use its pool, sauna, steam room, and Pilates area without having to rent a room. It’s the perfect plan to disconnect from the chaos of Mexico City without leaving the city.
You can choose from three levels of “pampering” for your body: the basic pass if you just want to swim, the spa option if you need a 30-minute massage, or the full package that includes lunch and dessert. Perfect for a Saturday of total relaxation or an intense midweek “break.”

Hotel Carlota
This list of hotels with day passes in Mexico City wouldn’t be complete without mentioning Carlota, a place that brought this option back into the spotlight in the city.
Perhaps the main reason is its pool: an ultra-Instagrammable translucent pool located in the building’s central courtyard and just a stone’s throw from the bar.
The day pass includes a cocktail, two beers, and a snack. Please note that only those 18 and older may use it.
W Mexico City Hotel
Although for many, a day pass is synonymous with drinks and a pool, it can also be something more relaxing, like a nice hot tub session. This iconic Polanco hotel has completely reimagined the concept of a day pass. Keep in mind that the W Hotel does not have a pool.
What you can do is use the gym, sauna, or jacuzzi by the hour. Plus, you’ll have 30 minutes to enjoy the temazcal or get a nice massage. We recommend making a reservation one to two days in advance.
This pass is valid only for those 18 years of age or older.
