Editor's note
The rooftop pool at Ohla Eixample offers stunning views of Barcelona, creating a memorable backdrop for relaxation. While the pool itself can be a bit chilly for swimming, the overall rooftop experience, including the bar and panoramic vistas, makes it a significant amenity for guests. The atmosphere is further enhanced by thoughtful service, though specific pool-side service mentions are limited.

What guests say about the pool
The pool was too cold to swim beyond a very quick plunge, heating it another 3-4 degrees would make a big difference.
The rooms are elegant and spacious, while the rooftop pool and terrace offer stunning views of Barcelona.
Last year we visited Ohla Barcelona, which has the most beautiful terrace with a nice pool and bar.
