5 Best Rooftop Bars in Barcelona

Enjoying a rooftop cocktail is one of the best things to do in Barcelona.

There are so many rooftop bars in Barcelona with thirst quenching sangria and tasty tapas.

To narrow down your choices, I’ve created a list of the 5 best rooftop bars in Barcelona.

All of them are for sure going to meet your Instagram aesthetic. So make sure to wear a cute outfit!

1. Ohla Barcelona

馃搷Via Laietana, 49, 08003 BARCELONA (SPAIN)

Ohla Barcelona is a five star hotel located in the Gothic center of Barcelona. Just a five minute walk from Rambla and the famous Boqueria market.

The vibes at Ohla Barcelona feel very similar to rooftops in New York City.

The rooftop at this hotel has some of the best views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Barcelona Cathedral.

Ohla Barcelona even has an astonishing glass-walled swimming pool, with tons of lounge chairs.

You should expect to pay a little more for drinks here, but the luxurious vibes and views make it well worth it.


2. The Panoramic Terrace at Hotel Colon

The Panoramic Terrace at Hotel Colon has a crazy view of the Barcelona Cathedral. The famous Cathedral looks finger tips away.

Hop around the two wooden terraces and enjoy the live music.

The Panoramic Terrace is the best place to get an Instagram photo in front of the famous cathedral. Up here you will not have to crop out the hundreds of tourists standing in front of the cathedral.

The Panoramic Terrace is free to enter and you do not need to make reservations in advance.


3. SkyBar at Grand Hotel Central

The SkyBar at Grand Hotel Central has spectacular views of Barcelona’s skyline and the Mediterranean Sea. The hotel is just two minutes away from Jaume I metro station. Also, less than a five minute walk from the Gothic Quarter and the Sagrada Familia Church.

Admire the views of the entire city of Barcelona. Soak up the sun on a lounge chair and sip on a cocktail.

Or even take a dip in the infinite pool (which is open and heated during the winter season).

The SkyBar is a perfect place to go for Happy hour with your friends.

If you go on Saturday’s and Sunday’s there is a live DJ session.

The SkyBar at Grand Hotel Central is open to the public every day of the week (Sunday – Monday).

  • From Monday to Friday : 11am to 7pm
  • Weekend : 11am to 8pm

I recommend booking reservations ahead of time online.


4. Barcelo Raval Rooftop

The 360掳 Rooftop Bar at Hotel Barcelo, is located on the 11th floor of the building. Hotel Barcelo is one of Barcelona’s most popular hotels, known for it’s modern and unique architecture.

As the name implies, the round shape of the hotel allows you to see the city of Barcelona from any angle. There’s even binoculars up there for you to see the city from a birds eye view.

After taking in all the views, lounge by the dipping pool and enjoy a cocktail.

I highly recommend watching an amazing Barcelona sunset up here.

The rooftop is open from May to October, and anyone can enter with no reservations necessary.

Some may say, I left the best for the last.

The Pulitzer rooftop bar is located right next to Plaza Cataluna, Barcelona’s most central locations.

The view from this rooftop at the Hotel Pulitzer Barcelona may not be the best in Barcelona, but the experience makes up for it.

Pulitzer Terrace is the rooftop bar to go to if you’re looking for a rooftop that feels more like a nightclub.

Here you can enjoy live music five days a week.

Wednesdays are dedicated to pop and electronic, giving Ibiza vibes.

From Thursday to Sunday the best DJs will turn it up live on the rooftop.


There are so many beautiful sights to see when in Barcelona. There’s no better way to enjoy the beautiful city by getting tipsy off of sangria on a rooftop bar.

Barcelona has some of the best rooftop bars in the world. Not to mention Tapas in Barcelona are absolutely to die for.

There are so many rooftop bars to choose to match the vibes you are looking for.
