The 9 Best Rooftop Terraces in Barcelona

So it’s summer in Barcelona. You’re hot, your feet are a little sore from all that sightseeing and you’re in desperate need of some rest. Well, one thing you can be sure of is that there’s no shortage of places to grab a drink in the shade of a palm in Barcelona.

But if you’re looking for something a little more special, maybe even luxurious, then we suggest you kick back at one of the many fabulous rooftop terraces in Barcelona. There’s nothing better than catching a glimpse of some amazing city views from the comfort of a plush white sofa while sipping one of the most delicious cocktails you’ve ever had. And that’s just for starters!

From live jazz to DJs, pools to Mediterranean views, here’s our 9 favourite rooftop terrace bars in Barcelona.

 

1. Alaire Terrace Bar, Hotel Condes

Terrasse AlaireOccupying the entire roof of the beautiful Hotel Condes, the Alaire Terrace Bar is the perfect place to sample some tasty tapas and sip on a refreshing cocktail. Oh, and did we mention the view? With a simple turn of the head, you’ll be able to observe two of Gaudí’s greatest creations, the Sagrada Familia and La Pedrera, without having to abandon the comfort of one of the rooftop sofas.

We also suggest checking out this terrace any summer night from Sunday to Wednesday, as it transforms into an open-air social mixer replete with live jazz music and a bit of friendly mingling.

Passeig de Gràcia, 73-75

2. El Palace Barcelona 

Great Places to Visit on a Summers night in Barcelona

The Palace Barcelona has the largest and most exclusive roof garden in Barcelona with an area of 1500 square meters. This rooftop is the perfect romantic spot to enjoy an authentic, local and seasonal dish whilst enjoying incredible views over Barcelona.

Address: Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, 668, 08010 Barcelona 

3. Skybar – Grand Hotel Central

skybar grand hotel central barcelonaWith over 100 rooms, Grand Hotel Central is a 5 star destination, and has one of the fanciest rooftop terraces in the city. The hotel also has an infinity pool and many oversized lounge chairs, making it the perfect place to go for a cocktail or a beer after work and watch the magnificent Barcelona sunset.

Via. Laietana, 30

4. Terraza La Isabela, Hotel 1898

With a name deriving from the tranquility of one of the Philippines’ most serene islands, the Terraza La Isabela lives up to its title. This rooftop terrace sits atop the Hotel 1898 which is located at the heart of the city – Las Ramblas. Terraza La Isabela provides patrons with a calming alternative to the bustling street below, without sacrificing the excitement of viewing Barcelona’s famous stretch. Come here to relax in the luxurious lounge and enjoy some of your favorite authentic Catalan cuisine.

La Rambla, 109

5. 1881 per Sagardi – Museu d’Història de Catalunya

For breathtaking views over Port Vell, be sure to head to 1881 per Sagardi. Situated above the Museu d’Història de Catalunya, this beautiful rooftop boasts some of the best views in the city in an elegant and relaxed environment. With an extensive list of cocktails, beers, snacks and other refreshments, you will be sure to find something that tickles your fancy at this trendy rooftop bar. On Friday evenings during the summer season, there is often a DJ that plays chilled house and old school music as you enjoy a drink or two (or three…), some nibbles and of course, those incredible sea views!

Plaça de Pau Vila

 

6. WET Bar, W Hotel

Wet Deck W Hotel, BarcelonaOk, so it’s not actually a rooftop bar, but at a place like the W Hotel, which is almost synonymous with class, the terrace bar is nothing less than magnificent. Join the youthful and fun crowd on the WET Bar terrace for one of its signature cocktails while overlooking the beautiful Mediterranean horizon.

If a full-on fiesta is what you seek, be sure to check out the WET Deck Summer Series parties, for an experience you won’t soon forget.

Plaça Rosa dels Vents, 1

 

7. La Dolce Vitae – Majestic Hotel

The Majestic Hotel is situated on the most expensive street in Spain and the second most expensive in Europe, Passieg de Gracia. La Dolce Vitae, the hotel’s rooftop terrace, offers striking views of the boulevard after sunset, something which goes hand in hand with a drink from the hotel’s extensive menu. If you’re fortunate enough to grab one of the few tables next to the balcony railings, this experience is something to die for!

Passeig de Gràcia, 68

 

8. Azimuth Terrace – Hotel Almanac

Azimuth Terrace at Hotel AlmanacLooking for a quiet place to have a business meeting or somewhere to take a date, look no further than Hotel Almanac! Azimuth Terrace offers a classic and elegant experience for any one and any occasion. They have a lively outdoor section that can seat any group of up to 20 people, and if you find the terrace too cold, there’s also the option to sit in the Azimuth lounge and enjoy the view from the inside.

Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, 619-621

 

9. Bar Veraz – Barcelona EDITION Hotel

Without a shadow of a doubt, EDITION Hotel has the best rooftop terrace in the city, and those that say otherwise, haven’t been here yet. This stylish hotel is Ian Schrager’s- founder of Studio 54- latest work. The rooftop offers a majestic view of the city’s skyline in conjunction with Barcelona’s iconic Torre Agbar. Newly opened in 2018 and professionally run by the Marriott, you can expect nothing less than superior services, craft cocktails, and a guaranteed good evening.

Av. de Francesc Cambó, 14
