Q 1 The swimming pool is only available in summer . 在此句中, only 是用作助動詞
( adverb) 而 available 是形容詞 . 因此, only 應放置於 available 前 .

Q 2 此句是 direct speech , 其 indirect speech 為 : " Tour members will be staying at a new hotel ( This is a future continuous tense ) " .

We can use the future continuous tense in following ways :
1. to talk about arrangements we have made for the future .
e.g. Mr. Tsung will be coming to the IT wrokshop .
What will you be doing this summer ? I' ll be visiting my uncle in China with my family .
2. to describe continuous actions at a particular time in the future .
e.g. At ten o'clock tomorrow night, our company will be holding a meeting .
We' ll be leaving for Japan on Thursday and returning to Hong Kong on 12th April .


Hope this helps ! 如有錯譯, 請予以指正 .

The swimming pool is available in THE summer
The swimming pool is available in THE summer only
They are both correct, you just missed out the "THE".

She said THE tour members would be staying at a new hotel which HAS a good restaurant.
HAD - is used to describe something that was one there but not anymore. so if you use HAD in this case, it would be suggesting, the restaurant is gone.

"would be staying" is similar to "will be staying", it is used to describe an event which you expect would happen.

Hope it helps^^ no source of reference used.
參考: no reference used
