Hôtel La Piscine Le Restaurant sur Ambert

The pool is always lovely, but I'm surprised to see green streaks on the walls at the deepest point. Algae? I've always seen this pool extremely clean, but it seems the recent heatwave has taken its toll.

A huge thank you to the entire team at the Ambert Livradois-Forez swimming pool for staying open all week during this heatwave. The fact that entry is free is a wonderful initiative that allows everyone to enjoy some relief from the heat. A great initiative, thank you! The pool is clean, as are the corridors and changing rooms. Everything is well-maintained and the staff is welcoming and helpful. We are fortunate to have such a large, clean, and renovated swimming pool. This isn't the case everywhere. It was a bit of a shame to see some young people lingering in the showers for a long time without even washing, when everyone should be more considerate, especially with the high temperatures and the risk of water shortages. Thank you again to the whole team for your hard work and dedication.

Water aerobics is fun and great for fitness. The swimming instructor is fantastic. The team has a great atmosphere. I've been doing it for 10 years.

The opening hours are very inconvenient for users. Only being open from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM on Fridays and only in the morning on Sundays severely limits access to the pool. This is regrettable for a public service that is supposed to be accessible to everyone. Longer opening hours would be appreciated.

Since the management was transferred to the local council, the service has been disappointing. The pool temperatures have dropped, and the facility is closed for three weeks during the school holidays. Previously, it was closed for one week after the holidays. The jacuzzi temperature is supposed to be 31°C... Normally, it should be at least 36°C. It's clear they're trying to cut costs.
