Next to María Zambrano train station, eight floors up, B-Heaven Rooftop Bar tops the Barceló Málaga.

It's part rooftop lounge, part urban escape, and one of the few spots in the city where you can enjoy cocktails poolside with sweeping city views.

The bar is open to the public, so you don't need to be a hotel guest to visit. It's one of the few rooftop bars in Málaga with a pool you can actually swim in.

Non-guests can book a €60 day pass to use the pool and terrace, lunch included. It has to be booked in advance online. That makes it a rare find for combining drinks with a dip.

Best For

  • Couples looking for a laid-back rooftop drink with city views
  • Hotel guests who want convenient access to a rooftop pool and lounge
  • Travellers seeking a modern, low-key vibe near the train station
  • Digital nomads and solo travellers wanting sun, space, and Wi-Fi
  • Urban explorers looking for a chill rooftop break in a stylish setting

Not Ideal For

  • Large groups expecting a party atmosphere
  • Families with young children
  • Those seeking historic or sea views
  • Budget-conscious travelers

Is B-Heaven Rooftop Bar Expensive?

No, B-Heaven sits in the mid-range for a Málaga rooftop. Cocktails run €8-14, and food lands between €10-18. You can spend an afternoon here without a big bill.

The bigger spend is the pool day pass at €60 per person, booked in advance. That covers a sunbed, towel service, and a two-course lunch, so it doubles as a relaxed lunch plan. Drinks aren't included.

I rate it good value for what you get. If the pool is the main draw, check the B-Heaven rooftop pool page and the Málaga pool day pass guide before you go.

The Vibe

B-Heaven strikes a balance between relaxed daytime lounging and sleek evening ambiance. Think soft lighting, pale wood decks, and pops of greenery scattered throughout the space. During the day, it's the perfect spot for stretching out by the pool with a cold drink in hand.

As evening sets in, the terrace transforms into an open-air bar with music and cocktails. The atmosphere is refined without being stuffy, and the crowd tends toward couples, friends, and solo travellers looking for somewhere stylish to unwind.

The space is well-designed and rarely feels overcrowded, even during busier periods. It's the kind of place where you can easily lose track of time watching the city light up below.

Opening Hours

  • Monday - Sunday: 11:00 - 00:00

Drinks: The bar serves a solid selection of cocktails, smoothies, and wines. Classic cocktails and signature creations are available, with most drinks priced between 8-14 euros.

Food: B-Heaven features signature burgers alongside a variety of salads, sandwiches, and sweet treats like cheesecake. It's casual fare done well, with most items in the 10-18 euro range. The menu is designed for sharing or light dining rather than full meals.

The View & Seating

The view stretches across Málaga's skyline with a mix of rooftops, rail lines, and rolling hills in the distance. It's a modern cityscape rather than historic monuments, but the panorama is broad and the sunsets are worth sticking around for.

Seating options include:

  • Cushioned loungers for sunbathing
  • Poolside daybeds (available to hotel guests and day pass holders)
  • Shaded tables for those who prefer some cover
  • Open-air stools along the bar for quick drinks

The space is well-spaced throughout, making it easy to find a quiet corner even when the terrace is busy.

Do I need a reservation at B-Heaven Rooftop Bar?

No, walk-ins are welcome at the bar. Reservations only help during peak times, special events, or high season, when terrace seating gets tight.

There's no formal restaurant on the rooftop, so booking is mainly about securing a table on a busy night.

Arrive early if you want the best sunset spots, because prime seating fills up fast.

Dress Code

What works:

  • Smart casual attire
  • Stylish daywear
  • Light layers for evening

What doesn't work:

  • Overly casual beachwear at the bar
  • Athletic wear

The vibe leans toward adults, so dress accordingly even if the space is family-friendly during daylight hours.

Access & Getting There

How to find it: Enter through the main lobby of Barceló Málaga, located beside María Zambrano train station. Take the elevator to the 8th floor and follow the signs to the B-Heaven rooftop terrace.

By public transport: The location is incredibly convenient, with direct access from the main train and bus station. It's one of the easiest rooftops to reach if you're arriving by AVE or intercity bus.

Pool day pass: Non-guests can book a €60 day pass to use the pool and solarium, lunch included. It must be booked in advance on the Barceló Experiences website. It isn't sold at reception. See the full B-Heaven rooftop pool page for what's covered.

Our Verdict

I love everything about this rooftop. It's beautiful, the food and drink are excellent, and it's one of the only hotels in Málaga offering pool day passes. The views may lean modern rather than historic, but they're still broad and sweeping, and spending hours here is easy.

Best for: Couples seeking a stylish afternoon, solo travellers wanting poolside relaxation, anyone arriving by train looking for a convenient first stop.

Skip if: You're after cathedral views or a lively party atmosphere. For the ultimate experience, staying at Barceló Málaga gives you exclusive pool access and the convenience of rolling out of bed to the rooftop.
