It is one of the most irritating surprises a traveler can face. You book a hotel because the pool is part of the appeal, then later discover there is a new charge to use it after 6 PM. The short answer is that a hotel can try to change access rules, but whether it can enforce that extra fee depends heavily on what was promised when you booked and the laws and card protections that apply.
