Do you know of any hotels that have workout appropriate pools on site? I'm not talking about the infamous "olympic sized" pools advertised, but real live 25 yard or longer pools.
I am aware of two:
1. Grove Park Inn in Asheville NC (not cheap!)
2. Washington Athletic Club in Seattle WA (not public!)
Maybe others could contribute. I am sure there must be some more out there.
Thanks

The Doubletree Hotel in downtown Boston (actually it's right next to NE Medical Center in Chinatown) has a five lane 25 yard pool. It's 3.5 feet in the shallow end and 10 feet in the deep end. This building was the old Don Bosco Technical HS and they kept the pool. It's run by the YMCA for the hotel.
For those of you who remember the old Bosco HS pool (we used to have quite a NEM group at that facility) I understand they totally renovated the lockerooms and showers.
The Sheraton on Memorial Drive in Cambridge has a 25 yard pool on the roof. Much nicer view but inferior pool (shallow on both ends) to Doubletree.
The Sheraton in downton Toronto has a 25 meter pool. This pool is heated and is combination indoor/outdoor. You start indoors and about half-way the pool becomes an outdoor pool. They have these doors/panels that open up to an outdoor deck. I believe they keep this configuration all year round but have yet to try it when it's snowing.
