This blog post was originally posted on May 1, 2015, and was updated on September 24, 2017. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n Imagine after a long day’s sightseeing you can sit back, relax and unwind, not just with a cool drink in hand, but with fabulous views to go with it. Whether you want views of the ocean, views\u00a0of famous monuments such as\u00a0Gaudi’s La Pedrera house, or\u00a0unspoiled 360-degree views of the city, here are the best rooftop bars in Barcelona that you need to visit when the weather permits!<\/p>\n Let’s start in the middle of it all – you can’t get any more central than the rooftop at Hotel Pulitzer<\/a>, just a few steps from Pla\u00e7a Catalunya. This sanctuary of lush plants, candles galore and relaxing music is a beautiful escape from the hustle and bustle of Barcelona’s city center.<\/p>\n Address:\u00a0<\/strong>Carrer Bergara, 8<\/em><\/p>\n One of the newer rooftops in Barcelona, the Sky Bar at Grand Central Hotel<\/a> checks off all the boxes. Great views, infinity pool<\/a>, good food and bargain prices, at least by\u00a0rooftop standards. The rooftop terrace opens to the public at 8:30 pm, but get there early because it tends to fill up fast!<\/p>\n Address:<\/strong>\u00a0Laeitana, 30<\/em><\/p>\n The terrace atop Duquesa de Cardona<\/a> has some of the best views of Barcelona’s old port<\/a>. It also happens to be one of few rooftops in Barcelona that are well-equipped for the winter<\/a>. Not in town during the summer months? Worry not! They have heaters, blankets, and strong drinks to keep you warm.<\/p>\n Address:<\/strong>\u00a0Passeig de Colon,<\/em> 8<\/p>\n Want to contemplate Gaudi’s La Pedrera from above? There’s no better place to do it than the chic Alaire Bar at the Condes de Barcelona hotel<\/a>, perfectly set on Barcelona’s most elegant boulevard, Passeig de Gr\u00e0cia.<\/p>\n Address:<\/strong>\u00a0Passeig de Gr\u00e0cia, 73-75<\/em><\/p>\n If you’re looking for something on the smaller, more intimate side, check out La Terraza de Vila Emilia<\/a> in the Eixample Esquerra district and not far from Pla\u00e7a Espanya. A hidden gem amongst rooftops in Barcelona, find live music and barbecues on Thursday and Saturday nights. We recommend making reservations, as there is limited space up there.<\/p>\n Address:\u00a0<\/strong>Carrer de Calabria,<\/em> 115<\/p>\n Though it might not seem so, locals\u00a0do come down to La Rambla, and when they do, it’s often in the direction of the Isabela Terrace at the Hotel 1898<\/a>. Contemplate the famed, tree-lined boulevard, as long with the other great views, from atop this oasis in the center of it all.<\/p>\n Address:<\/strong>\u00a0La Rambla, 109<\/em><\/p>\n Just as the name implies, this rooftop terrace boasts 360-degree views of Barcelona<\/a>, from Montjuic to Tibidabo to the Torres Mapfre and beyond. It’s sleek, it’s modern and it’s perfect for a sunset drink<\/a>.<\/p>\n Address:<\/strong>\u00a0Rambla de Raval, 17-21<\/em><\/p>\nSummer has arrived, so take advantage of the warm nights, take to the heights, and\u00a0explore Barcelona by night.<\/h3>\n
