Features
The rooftop terrace -- complete with plunge pool and views -- is popular with hotel guests
Ayre Hotel Rosellon has many of the amenities one would expect from an upper-middle-range hotel, including a restaurant and a roof terrace complete with a plunge pool. The views of Sagrada Familia from the roof terrace are excellent, making it a popular place for guests to gather. But the hotel lacks a fitness center and true pool, so travelers who value these amenities will want to choose another property. Wi-Fi is free, but parking comes at an additional cost. For business travelers, there is a small business center.
