Best Pool Stays to Book in Pelotas
Hotel pools are a genuine rarity in Pelotas's accommodation market, which leans heavily toward self-catering apartments, so the two properties that do offer one, M Tower Hotel and Jacques Georges Tower, stand out clearly rather than competing with a long list of alternatives. Both are 4-star hotels combining a pool with a fitness centre, and both sit within easy walking distance of the historic centre, making a pool stay here more about choosing between two well-matched options than filtering through many. Choosing between the two comes down to a handful of small but real differences worth comparing directly before booking either one.
Pelotas's inland, lagoon-adjacent setting rather than an ocean coastline explains why pools are less central to its hotel offering than in Brazil's beach destinations, with most properties instead built around kitchens and central access.

Where to stay
Choosing between the city's two pool hotels
A pool in Pelotas usually comes bundled with a fuller set of hotel amenities, a gym, breakfast buffet and central location, rather than standing alone as a resort feature. That makes the choice between the city's two pool hotels less about the pool itself and more about which surrounding package of amenities and location fits your trip.
M Tower Hotel pairs its outdoor pool with a fitness centre and an on-site bar, all within a 10-minute walk of Coronel Pedro Osório Square, giving guests a genuine resort-style amenity mix without leaving the historic centre far behind. The hotel's 4-star classification and classic-style apartment rooms with a kitchen add a self-catering option on top of the pool, useful for a longer stay, and it sits close to Bento Freitas Stadium for anyone visiting for an event. The hotel's classic-style apartment rooms with a kitchen add a self-catering option on top of the pool itself, useful for a longer stay built around both swimming and cooking your own meals.
Jacques Georges Tower matches M Tower's 4-star rating and pool-plus-gym combination, and edges ahead on location, just 400 metres from Pelotas city centre and Colonel Pedro Osório Square. Select rooms add a private spa bath on top of the shared pool, a genuine extra for anyone wanting both a swim and an in-room soak, and the hotel includes a rare EV charging station for guests travelling by electric car. Select rooms add a private spa bath on top of the shared pool, a genuine extra for anyone wanting both a swim and an in-room soak during the same short stay in the city.
Choosing between the two comes down mostly to small differences: M Tower Hotel accepts pets in specific delux room categories for an extra fee, while Jacques Georges Tower does not advertise a pet policy in the same way, making M Tower the better pick for a pool stay with an animal. Jacques Georges Tower's slightly closer proximity to the centre and its spa-bath rooms make it the stronger choice for a couple prioritising both a swim and a bit of extra relaxation.

Beyond these two hotels, a genuine pool is difficult to find in Pelotas's accommodation market, which stays dominated by apartments and lofts with kitchens rather than resort amenities. Anyone set on a pool stay should treat M Tower Hotel and Jacques Georges Tower as the two realistic options in the city rather than expecting a wider field, and book early given how few alternatives exist. Book early given how few realistic alternatives exist in a city where self-catering apartments, not pools, make up the overwhelming majority of the accommodation stock available to travellers.
A traveler's takeI picked Jacques Georges Tower mainly for the pool and ended up using the spa bath in the room just as often, and the 400-metre walk to Colonel Pedro Osório Square meant the historic centre never felt far away even with an evening swim planned most days. Even with an evening swim planned most days, the historic centre never felt far away, and the pool ended up being just one part of a genuinely well-rounded short stay.
