Book here if you want a guests-only pool on the 6th floor and you're traveling between April and October. The pool closes 31 Oct to 31 March, subject to change, so it is shut as of today.
The pool
The pool sits on the 6th floor of this Eixample hotel, on the rooftop above Carrer del Rosselló. The hotel describes panoramic sunset views over Palau Robert and the Eixample, with a solarium and a rooftop bar serving local wines and signature cocktails. Season sets the limit: the pool closes from 31 Oct to 31 March.
Our take
Grand Hotel Central has its guests-only pool on the 8th floor and Seventy has its on the 7th, so this one is two floors lower than the former. What it adds is a published season and a sunset view over Palau Robert, which suits an evening swim after a day of sightseeing.
The downside is the calendar. A winter or early-spring stay gets you no pool, and the hotel says dates are subject to change. If the pool is why you're booking, check the dates with the hotel before you pay.
