In NY, we use it like "gym". You'd head to the "school's natatorium". And that's how it would be labeled on the door. Seems to be the same here in Texas. The city buildings say "Such and Such Municipal Natatorium" on them to designate them as having a pool.
Just checked, Google lacks this word, too.

I get it - I looked it, I've just never seen it before... it's just - indoor pool, in every reference I can recall.

Yup, just like a gymnasium is an indoor activity / exercise area.

I'm not surprised. It doesn't "feel" like a super common term, but it's definitely written on public buildings that I see pretty often.

It's a French origin, but so is resume. It's a word in English for a very long time.

all true but maybe they have a cutoff somewhere before it is recognized. I am just guessing though.
