Best Hotels with a Pool in Odivelas
A pool is not the first thing travelers expect from Odivelas, a metro suburb built around a 13th-century convent rather than a resort strip, but four hotels turning up in this search prove the Area Metropolitana de Lisboa quietly hides a few. VIP Executive Entrecampos Hotel & Conference and VIP Executive Zurique Hotel both add pools to business-hotel bones near Entrecampos and central Lisbon, Moxy Alfragide Lisboa keeps things newer and more compact toward Alfragide, and Lisbon Marriott Hotel goes furthest with gardens and an outdoor pool near Sete Rios. None of this is beachfront Algarve, and the pool here is a genuine amenity rather than the whole reason to book, which is worth saying honestly upfront.
Odivelas itself, terminus of the Yellow Line and home to the old Convento de Odivelas, has no pool culture of its own; it is the wider business-hotel belt running through Entrecampos, Alfragide and Sete Rios, all inside the same Grande Lisboa search radius, that supplies these four properties. That split matters for expectations: a traveler booking a pool hotel here is really booking a Lisbon business district address with a swim option, not a resort adjacent to Odivelas' historic centre, and the honest sell is the amenity itself rather than a countryside or beach setting that simply is not present.

Stays in Odivelas
The honest value of a pool in this corner of Grande Lisboa is recovery after a day of museum-hopping and metro rides, not a resort holiday in its own right: VIP Executive Entrecampos adds an indoor pool and sauna useful whenever Lisbon's Atlantic-influenced weather turns damp, while Lisbon Marriott Hotel's outdoor pool and gardens near Sete Rios suit the warmer months when a swim after sightseeing genuinely appeals. Moxy Alfragide and VIP Executive Zurique sit a notch below on grounds and polish but still give travelers a real pool option outside the handful of central Lisbon hotels that charge far more for the same amenity.
VIP Executive Entrecampos Hotel & Conference pairs its indoor pool with a sauna, three dining options and a location one minute from Av. Forcas Armadas, itself close to Humberto Delgado Airport and a short walk from the Gulbenkian Museum area. The indoor setup means the pool works year-round rather than only in summer, a real advantage over an outdoor-only property when Lisbon's spring rains or winter chill roll through, and the surrounding business-hotel amenities, from room service to a business center, suit travelers combining sightseeing with work. Kid-friendly and accessible tags round out a property built to serve conference guests and families alike, not just swimmers.
Lisbon Marriott Hotel takes the outdoor route near Sete Rios, with gardens, a breezy tapas bar and a sleek restaurant wrapped around the pool itself, seven minutes by taxi from Sete Rios station and fifteen from Humberto Delgado Airport. This is the property in the group that leans furthest into a genuine leisure feel rather than a business stopover with a pool bolted on, and it carries the highest review count of the four, a sign the outdoor pool and gardens draw repeat guests rather than one-off business stays. The higher nightly rate here buys noticeably more grounds to actually relax in between pool sessions.
VIP Executive Zurique Hotel and Moxy Alfragide Lisboa both offer simpler pool setups, an outdoor pool at VIP Executive Zurique near Av. 5 Outubro and an indoor pool at Moxy Alfragide near Belem Tower's side of the metro area, each paired with air conditioning and a restaurant or bar rather than extensive resort grounds. Both work well as a value step down from Marriott or Entrecampos for travelers who want a pool without paying for gardens or multiple dining rooms they may never use, and Moxy's pet-friendly policy adds a practical edge for travelers bringing a dog along.
A traveller's takeAfter a morning walking the Gulbenkian Museum grounds and a metro ride back through Entrecampos, a traveler checks into VIP Executive Entrecampos, swims a few laps in the indoor pool while the afternoon rain rolls through outside, and is dry and changed for dinner at one of the hotel's three dining options before the evening even properly starts.
4.4Pool HotelMoxy Alfragide Lisboa
A pet-friendly hotel with an indoor pool near Alfragide
I would choose Moxy Alfragide Lisboa for a family with a pet that still wants a pool. The three-star hotel has an indoor pool, a fitness center, parking and free Wi-Fi, and it accepts pets. Belém Tower is ten minutes away by taxi and Humberto Delgado Airport eighteen, so central Lisbon takes planning rather than a short walk. It sits in the Alfragide area, rated 8.8 from 152 reviews, which suits a stay built around the hotel and the car.

An outdoor pool hotel near Av. 5 Outubro
VIP Executive Zurique is a three-star hotel three minutes from Av. 5 Outubro, with an outdoor pool, a restaurant, a bar and room service. There is parking and a business centre. Restaurante a'BEIRA-te is five minutes away on foot, and Humberto Delgado Airport is eighteen minutes by taxi. Guests rate it 7.8 across more than 3,700 reviews. It reads as a dependable business hotel with a pool, not a resort.
Local tips
