Choose Almanac if you are staying and want the pool next to a bar on the 8th floor. Swimming is guests only. Seventy is the other Eixample hotel on our list that publishes a guests-only rooftop pool floor.
The pool
On the 8th floor in Eixample, the Azimuth Rooftop pairs the pool with a bar serving cocktails and Mediterranean bites. The hotel describes city views of Barcelona. Size and heating aren't published.
Our take
Seventy has its pool on the 7th floor, also in Eixample and also guests only. Almanac goes one floor higher and ties the pool to a bar, so it feels more social than a quiet deck.
Water details are thin. Heating and pool size are not published, so ask if you plan on cooler months. The sauna and relaxation area are for guests too.
