WHY WE PICKED THIS HOTEL
The appeal is in the energy rather than quiet boutique intimacy: a rooftop pool, rooftop bar, coworking areas, community events and a younger, more social rhythm throughout the property
HOTEL DESCRIPTION
The Social Hub Barcelona Poblenou is a hybrid hotel, coworking space, and extended-stay hub in Barcelona’s creative Poblenou district. It feels more like a social campus than a traditional hotel, with shared lounges, workspaces, events, restaurants, bars, terraces, and a young, energetic atmosphere. The property is around 20 minutes on foot from the beach and well placed for exploring the city by metro, bike, or taxi. The main draw is the rooftop, with a pool, bar, and panoramic views, making it a lively base for travellers who want both Barcelona’s beach side and its creative neighbourhood energy.
Our take on the stay

This is a stay built around movement, with coworking tables, rooftop swims, café meetings and city days all flowing together

Poblenou, Barcelona
Poblenou has evolved from Barcelona’s old industrial district into one of the city’s most creative neighbourhoods, where converted warehouses, design studios, and cafés sit a short walk from the beach. Wide avenues and quieter residential streets give the area a more relaxed pace compared to the Gothic Quarter or Eixample. The Social Hub Hotel is set within this part of the city, close to both the Mediterranean coastline and Poblenou’s growing creative scene.
