Best views over Madrid from rooftop terrace bar La Azotea. Costs €3 to go up (take the lift). At €4 for a glass of wine it's more expensive than average city prices. Chilled atmosphere.

Definitely the best rooftop bar in Madrid. €4 entrance, but worth it. Always playing good music, always somewhere to sit, great food at the restaurant, lounge seating available for reservation.

One of the must seen places in Madrid. Specially the terrace at the last floor -the 7th I guess- beautiful view.. Nice seatings and affordable food. The entrance fee is €4 only.

Only €4 for lift up to the roof terrace. Amazing views across Madrid. Perfect place for a café con leche to start the day.

The 3Eur entrance ticket really worths the money. A glass of cava overlooking the roofs its a rewarding feeling. I recommend it. Having said that... I hate waiters rushing you to pay for the drinks.

The seventh floor terrace offers 360-degree city views, best enjoyed with “tinto de verano,” Spain’s simplified version of sangria. Read more

Great view, great terrace, great bar... YOU have to be here when you're in Madrid. Check the view to Metropolis....
BibiOctober 19, 2014
The view is amazing and better than Palacio de Cibeles. Food and service is great, but book in advance to avoid the queue and entrance fee of 3€
Mery PoppinsJune 3, 2013
amazing terrace! worth paying the 3 EUR to enjoy the sunset.. Great atmosphere, music and nice drinks! (glass of wine: 2,50 €)

Amazing rooftop to have a drink on alongside a giant Athena statue and admire a breathtaking view of Madrid
Megan IrvineApril 24, 2016
Come here for a spectacular view of the city, but be warned. It is usually crowded and closes at 9 PM.
Anya🍀 LibovaMay 24, 2017
100% worth paying the entrance fee. Enjoy!

Icecold drinks on a cozy terrace with great views

Something special in that place. Great views specially from the rooftop terrace. Elevators suck, that's true.
Olga InsuaAugust 19, 2015
Best views of the city I have seen so far! Love it
Bijan YoungMay 30, 2016
Great views. And the museum is not bad either.
Jihye KimJanuary 5, 2017
Great view to see Madrid city. :)
Scott HingleyJanuary 7, 2010
The architecture alone is worth a look. A beautiful 1930's Art Deco building with a beautiful artsy Cafe' in the front and museum in the back

Spectacular views from the rooftop
Bassi HamidMarch 4, 2015
From the top is nice but the roof is too small and always crowded

Viendo la expo de 100 imágenesdel Machu Pichu. Have a drink in their terrace in the summer!
Joaquin Jimenez-SaumaJanuary 22, 2019
Avoid this place. The staff is very rude and disrespectful. Expensive and nothing to do with fine arts. “Bellas Artes” it’s just a name for this private club for wealthy people.
Frederik VerleyeOctober 15, 2014
Pay the small fee to see the rooftop terrace, but don't drink or eat there
Miguel UseraSeptember 20, 2014
About to dinner in the roof. Great views

Been here 10+ times
The extra euro to get access to the roof is totally worth it

At the cafe you have to be patient with the waitress! Yet a very nice setting!
