Located in the heart of one of Barcelona’s most famous neighbourhoods, only a 5-minute walk from Urquinaona station, stands the Yurbban Trafalgar Hotel. Walk up the “stairway to heaven” and reach the rooftop by Lolea. 

It’s the perfect combination of a nice city view, a cocktail in hand and chill-out music in the background while you watch the sun go down over the most iconic buildings of Barcelona. 

The best time to visit this place, as is the case with many rooftops, is in summer of course. It also has a gorgeous pool you can dip into, or if you prefer to stay dry, sit by the pool in the tree-linked lounge. Either way, you can’t really go wrong up there.

During the weekend they hold special events with live bands, concerts and, as the sun goes down, DJs. The day I discovered the place I was lucky enough to experience it with a live soul & jazz singer who I remember had a beautiful voice which blended in amazingly with the whole atmosphere.
