"Located on Calle Alcala, Madrid’s longest street, the Círculo de Bellas Artes is a multi-disciplinary cultural center that hosts exhibitions, music and dance performances, movie showings, workshops, etc. The highlight of this cool spot is the beautiful building’s rooftop, which has the best views of Madrid and a full bar." - MATADOR_NETWORK
"Circulo de Bellas Artes—Overlooking Madrid When in Madrid , I highly recommend to visit Circulo de Bellas Artes. The views from the rooftop of the Fine Arts Circle is breath taking. Buy a ticket at the reception, speed up to the roof and stand by the feet of Goddess Minerva. Highly recommended during sunset with a glass of wine in hand."
"The rooftop of the Circulo de Bellas Artes - a historic cultural building dating back to the 1880s - has some of the best views in Madrid. With those views come lines and a $5 admission price, but even in peak tourist season you shouldn’t have to wait more than 30 minutes. There are high tops and a covered seating area, but if you’re lucky enough to grab one of the 10 or so lounge beds, we suggest hanging out with some wine because you just snagged the best seat in the city." - Cristina Shipe
"A large, 19th-century interdisciplinary cultural center and theater used for festival events and quick media appearances; the grand, central venue sits conveniently near Madrid’s museum district." - Paula Aceves, Margalit Cutler
"Founded in 1880, the Círculo de Bellas Artes is a major private cultural center with exhibition rooms, a cinema, theater and a rooftop bar/restaurant that offers spectacular views of Madrid's urban layout — entry to exhibitions and the rooftop costs 5.50 EUR and guided tours are 7 EUR." - Matthew Kepnes
