One
of the best ways of fighting the warm nights in summer in Barcelona
is having a drink outdoors. The city has big terraces and carps
surrounded with gardens, as Los Tilos, an enormous tower in Pedralbes
with an authentic Mediterranean garden turned into bar.
Summer
nights are remembered by many people as the best ones to share
with friends or with a special person. Los Tilos is a place with
magic, personality and with an endless number of environments
to spend a magnificent night. It's location is superb, in Pedralbes,
next to the Palau Reial and the pavilion that the architect Antoni
Gaudí created for the horse's stable of Count Güell.
The house and garden occupy 1.200 m2 of surface and they too belonged
to the Guëll family.
Los
Tilos opened 16 years ago and part of its success is due to its
privileged situation, and to and extensive and beautiful garden
full of Mediterranean vegetation with jasmines, laurels, night
jasmines, palms, orange trees and rose-bushes. For those who prefer
dancing, it has a principal carp with a dancing floor and we can
also find a bar and an area covered to dance varied music (commercial
pop, funky and a some kind of techno) just in front of the carp.
There is also a zone of karaoke with more than 2.000 songs, some
of them old and some actual ones, that will make you be nicely
entertained by one's who dare to sing.
Inside
the house there is a relaxed environment that gives place intimate
and discreet talks, very appropriate for business conversations.
The decoration, rustic and ancient, does the delights of many
tourists who bring over to photograph the house constructed in
1834. The lowest part presents a bar, with comfortable armchairs
and is decorated with photographs of trips to Cuba. In the top
floor stands out a chimney of firewood (for the cold nights of
winter) in which the owners place a sack of hay in a hillock to
propagate good smell. We can access the terrace from which you
can observe a precious sight to the gardens that belonged to the
Güell family, it's a perfect space for a romantic night under
the moon.
Los
Tilos is opened all year long, in winter it transforms in covered
terraces to give warmth to the moments of leisure. The possibilities
that the managers offer all those that want to celebrate some
event adapts always to the needs of the clients, this way there
are celebrated all kinds of thematic and private parties for everyone
including companies, conventions and weddings at any hour of the
day.
The
environment is a variety of people of different ages. In Los Tilos
they are authentic specialists in tropical cocktails as the typical
mojitos and caipirinhas, so fashionable nowadays, though they
also have an extensive list of cocktails.
Los
Tilos is located in Passeig dels Til·lers, 1 and opens
from 6:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. in the morning all days of the year,
except all Sundays night from January to May.
