Uma House by Yurbban Trafalgar
About this hotel
The rooftop terrace does the heavy lifting here: a pool with a 360-degree panorama over the Barri Gòtic's tiled roofs sits above rooms that stay soundproofed and air-conditioned against the old city's street noise below. Mornings suit a swim before the crowds reach the cathedral, ten minutes on foot; evenings work for the gym or a drink at the hotel bar before dinner nearby. The location, three hundred metres from Urquinaona Metro, puts Las Ramblas and the Palau de la Música within easy walking range without sacrificing the rooftop's quiet. A tour desk and laundry service round out the practical side for a multi-night stay. A tour desk on-site helps plan day trips beyond the immediate old-city neighbourhood for guests staying several nights.
