Hotel New York - Pool

[JohnnySharp2]

Hi,

Well just a few days to our visit to Disneyland Paris. Whilst we are aware of the indoor/outdoor pool not being zero depth or having a shallow end my wife is slightly concerned about Joshua playing in it.
As he cannot really swim properly and is autistic/non verbal.

He loves water, but mostly playing in an off site villa pool in Florida.

Anyone been in the pool at HNY with their children? Is the jacuzzi an option for a 14 year old just to play for a while and is there a smaller toddler pool, I have read on other posts that there is.

If I remember whilst the HNY pool doesnt have a shallow end they have steps the gradually go into the pool so he could play near them without any problem

Here is a photo, its not great but you can see the rail where the steps are:

Hi thanks,

I have actually found a picture which suggests there are shallow areas as you walk in, plus places where you can sit too.
There is also a smaller children's pool? at the back which looks ideal too, so Julie is happier now.

That picture of the pool at the back is actually the jaccuzi. It completely fine for kids to play in and in fact always has kids much younger than the suggested age limit and no one minds. Also as the main pool is freezing is a much better bet for kids. The area where you see people stood at knee hight is just the steps. The main steps in the first picture are large so fine to play on. The kids pool is at the side. Near the yellow floaties in this picture. Its only ankle deep. You will be fine. He will have lots of fun in the jaccuzi. Cant give any advice about the outside pool as we go in Jan or Feb.
