Barceló Raval is a design hotel on Rambla del Raval in Barcelona’s El Raval district, a short walk from Las Ramblas. Its circular rooftop terrace on the 11th floor gives you a broad view across the city, with a bar, a small pool for hotel guests and a solarium. Rooms have modern, distinctive decor, and the hotel restaurant serves breakfast and tapas. Choose a higher floor if the view matters; the surrounding streets call for the usual care with valuables.
The rooftop terrace
The hotel’s main draw is the 360º terrace on the 11th floor. Its circular layout gives you views in every direction, across Barcelona’s streets, the port and Montjuïc. Lookout binoculars let you zoom in on landmarks and neighbourhoods below.
There is a bar for drinks and a solarium, as well as a small pool reserved for hotel guests. The terrace is also open to the public on weekdays from 6pm to midnight and until 1am at weekends, so you can visit without staying at the hotel.
Rooms and hotel design
The Barceló Raval is a tall, cylindrical building on the pedestrian Rambla del Raval. Its contemporary design stands out in this older part of the city. Inside, rooms use bright fuchsia and lime-green accents alongside simpler decor. Some rooms have city views, and higher floors are the ones to request if the outlook is important to you.
The hotel has a gym and an on-site restaurant. Breakfast includes hot and cold choices, while the restaurant also serves tapas. Room sizes and layouts can differ, so check the room details carefully if you are travelling with a group or need more space.
Getting around from El Raval
The hotel is in El Raval, within walking distance of Las Ramblas and central Barcelona sights. Its location makes it convenient for exploring on foot, but the surrounding area can feel unpredictable. Keep valuables secure as you walk nearby, particularly at night.
