I travel 5 days per. I decided to return to swimming and attempt to use the hotel pools. I have a kick board/power fins/mittens I can use and have ordered a teather to attach to the pool ladder. Anyone out there ever heard of a good workout developed for this kind of scenario?

Personally I think you'll be getting the most use out of the tether you purchased. Most hotel pools aren't big enough to use a kickboard or fins (unless you like hitting walls alot).
Just make sure the stationary object you attached to is really stationary! Also be aware--most hotels have steps leading down to them and this is where the railing is that you might attach to.
You might do better finding out if there is a YMCA, JCC or other real swimming facility that you could join on a guest basis for a week. Make sure you carry your USMS or Y membership card with you--this could get you a reduced rate.
