agree  David Hollywood: would work too Mike :) "play"is good though ....
1 min
  -> Thank you, David - the reason I made the suggestion is because "play" is great for playing or running, but when swimming is included, as in swimming pools, I feel "recreational" makes it more official sounding, if you will. - Mike :)

Designated children's play area in hotels.


Explanation:
Playground is all inclusive and concise.

However this particular sentence has not used the word "playground", but rather "play area." I therefore presume this is text is related to some sort of "upscale" literature that would prefer language that offers a better description of this area.

Example sentence(s):
  • Hotel plans include presdesignated children's play areas.
