Do you have a gym or a swimming pool?
'Palestra' — stress the second syllable: 'pa-LES-tra'. 'Piscina' — stress the second syllable: 'pi-SCI-na', with the SC making a 'sh' sound.
Ask at check-in or when booking to confirm fitness facilities. These are not universal in Italian hotels.
'Avete' (do you have) addresses hotel staff collectively. 'O' means 'or'. 'Palestra' = gym/fitness room; 'piscina' = swimming pool. In Italian hotels, a 'centro benessere' (wellness centre) may include both.

Spa and wellness facilities in Italian hotels are often branded as 'centro benessere' or 'relax centre'. Using the hotel spa typically requires a bathrobe (accappatoio) and sandals — these are usually provided but can also be requested at reception.
