La Terraza del Central, Rooftop restaurant and bar in Ciutat Vella, Barcelona, Spain.
La Terraza del Central is a rooftop terrace atop the Grand Hotel Central with views of Barcelona's skyline. The space features an infinity pool, lounge areas, and dining zones where visitors can eat, drink, and enjoy the views.
The Grand Hotel Central is a historic building in the heart of the old city that was transformed into a modern luxury hotel. The rooftop terrace was added as a contemporary space that combines the building's architecture with modern amenities.
The name refers to the central location of the hotel, and people use this space to share meals and drinks while looking out over the city. It has become a gathering spot where visitors and locals experience Barcelona's contemporary dining culture.
Visitors should note that the space has stairs and changing levels, and is best explored during the day when visibility is clear. Reservations are recommended, especially if you want to use the pool or dine during busy times.
The pool has a design that creates the illusion of swimming into empty space and floating directly above the city. This optical effect results from a special construction that lets water flow right to the roof's edge.
