Book here if you want a small rooftop plunge pool with city and sea views and don't mind guests-only swimming. The hotel calls it the highest in Barcelona, though it doesn't publish the floor.
The pool
The pool is a plunge pool on The Rooftop at Nobu Hotel Barcelona, in Sants-Montjuïc, with sun loungers around it. Views take in the city and the sea. The catch: only hotel guests can swim, and the floor isn't published.
Our take
Nobu is a plunge pool, not a lap pool, so it suits cooling off between loungers rather than swimming. InterContinental, the other Sants-Montjuïc option on our list, sells day passes. Nobu does not.
The rooftop bar and dining area is open to guests and locals by night, with first-come, first-served seating and no reservations. That gets non-guests onto the roof, but not into the water.
Good to know
- Plunge pool with sun loungers on the rooftop
- Panoramic views over the city and the sea
- Guests can also use the Nobu Spa water circuit
The catches
- Guests only, with no day pass listed
- Floor, hours and season aren't published
Best forGuests who want a compact plunge pool with sea views and a rooftop bar upstairs.
Skip it ifYou want to swim without booking a room, because the pool is reserved for guests.
Getting in
Only hotel guests can use the rooftop plunge pool. The hotel lists no day pass for it.
Locals can reach the rooftop bar and dining area at night. Seating is first come, first served.
Tips
- Come to the roof early on a night you want a bar seat, because the hotel takes no reservations.
- Ask the front desk about the Nobu Spa water circuit if the plunge pool feels small.
Before you go. Ask the hotel for the pool's opening hours and season before booking, since neither is published.
