We booked a day pass at Hotel June because it had been hot and we wanted access to a pool without…read moregoing to a crowded public pool with lots of kids, splashing, and heavy foot traffic. The location was convenient for us, and overall the atmosphere was quiet and relaxing.
One thing to know before arriving: there is no general hotel parking available. Valet parking was an option, but we didn't want to pay for valet, so finding close parking was a bit of a struggle.
The pool is located outside, right behind the hotel. We took the elevator to the second floor, which opens into the restaurant. The restaurant area has a nice tropical, resort-like feel, and it wasn't very crowded when we visited. From there, you go through the restaurant and downstairs to access the pool area.
The pool itself was much smaller than I expected, with a posted capacity of 27 people. Thankfully, there weren't many people actually in the water at the same time, and most guests were relaxing on the poolside lounge chairs. There were plenty of chairs, including covered seating, and only one child was there during our visit, so the atmosphere remained peaceful. Towels are provided, along with complimentary sunscreen and a pitcher of water for staying hydrated at the self-service towel station. There is also a poolside bar, and you can order by scanning the QR code and your food will be delivered to your chair. I ordered the fish. The presentation was nice, but the flavor was pretty average-not bad, just not particularly flavorful.
My biggest disappointment was the lack of a locker room, changing area, or shower facilities. If you need to use the restroom, you have to go back upstairs through the restaurant. For a paid pool day pass, I was hoping there would at least be somewhere to shower and change comfortably.
Overall, Hotel June served its purpose: we wanted a peaceful place to swim and relax for the day without dealing with a crowded public pool, and that's what we got. The setting was pleasant enough, and the pool area wasn't overcrowded, but between the very small pool, parking situation, lack of changing/shower facilities, and average food, I probably will not return.
