During my solo trip to Barcelona, I set out to find the best rooftop pool bars where I could sip on sangria, take in the views of the city’s beautiful low-rise architecture, and unwind after a long day of exploring.
Along the way, I stumbled upon some amazing hotels, each with its own rooftop paradise. If you're not staying at these hotels, don’t worry – you can still enjoy the rooftop bars. But if you do stay, you’ll get the full experience, including pool access.
