The Residency Hotel
A central outdoor pool with its own airport shuttle
About this hotel
The Residency Hotel sits in a modern building in central Lahore, roughly six kilometres from Allama Iqbal Airport, and pairs a free airport shuttle with an outdoor pool that gives the property genuine wellness appeal beyond its central location. Rooms are well-appointed, with coffee and tea making facilities, a flat-screen TV and DVD player, and en suite bathrooms offering either a bathtub or hot-water shower with premium toiletries after a day spent in the sun. A fitness centre rounds out the property's leisure offer for parents wanting to work out while children rest between Sozo Water Park visits. The free airport shuttle simplifies arrival for families flying in specifically for a short water park trip without their own transport arranged.

Our take
The Residency Hotel suits families who want a free airport shuttle and outdoor pool in a central, modern setting without paying for extensive extras. It suits travellers wanting a family-suite configuration specifically less well, since this property doesn't emphasise family-room amenities as strongly as others across this wider belt of Lahore hotels.
- ✓Book the free airport shuttle ahead of arrival rather than arranging your own transport through unfamiliar Lahore roads.
- ✓Use the outdoor pool on a rest day between Sozo Water Park visits, particularly in the cooler morning hours.
- ✓Ask for a bathtub room specifically if a proper soak after a day of slides matters to your stay.

Why guests love itThe free airport shuttle at The Residency Hotel meant our arrival into Lahore was one less thing to plan before our first Sozo Water Park day, and the outdoor pool that evening was exactly what tired legs needed after the flight and the heat. Having a proper bathtub in the room also felt like a small luxury after days of quick showers.
