Bromine, from what I can gather, is usually used in spas, since there is less of an odor. I believe that it is possible to use bromine as a sanitiser for an indoor pool.
Salt is another alternative. Basically you need a unit called a Salt Cell, which passes an electric current through the water and converts salt into chlorine and back again, hence sanitising your pool. Very, very good alternative - they cost less and are less harsh than chlorine by itself.
