Skyline views over Málaga's modern cityscape, a focus on refreshing cocktails and light bites, and a relaxed, contemporary vibe with poolside seating
B-Heaven Rooftop Bar sits on the 8th floor of Barceló Málaga, right next to María Zambrano train station.
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.
Non-guests can also purchase day passes to use the pool and terrace, making this a rare find for those looking to combine drinks with a dip.

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.

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.
How to Make a Reservation
Walk-ins are welcome at the bar, but reservations may be recommended during peak times, special events, or high season. There's no formal restaurant on the rooftop, so booking is primarily for securing terrace seating during busy periods.
Arrive early if you're hoping for the best sunset spots, as prime seating fills up quickly.
Sunrise at Gibralfaro Castle
Watch the sun rise over Malaga from the highest point in the city. The views stretch from the bullring to the port and beyond.
“The castle opens at 9am, but staying at the Parador gives you access to the terrace at dawn - before anyone else arrives.”
Parador de Malaga Gibralfaro - The only hotel with direct castle access. Wake up and walk straight onto the terrace for sunrise.
