Quick answer: Etro Rooftop on the 16th floor of Binn Hotel offers for Mother’s Day an experience that combines a 360-degree view of the Valle de Aburrá with author cocktails (5 signature cocktails with Colombian ingredients, from $38,000 COP), sharing plates (small plates from $43,000 COP, large plates up to $275,000 COP for the Certified Angus Beef Rib Eye) and the most intense May sunset from the heights of El Poblado. Sunday and public holiday hours: 12:00 pm to 10:00 pm.
Celebrating Mom above Medellín has a literal meaning when the space is the 16th floor of Binn Hotel. At that height, the Valle de Aburrá unfolds in every direction: the eastern and western Antioquian slopes with the greenest vegetation of the year in May, the urban density of the center visible on the northern horizon, the skyline of El Poblado and Provenza at the building’s feet.
Most Mother’s Day celebrations happen at street level, with the world as a backdrop. Etro Rooftop places Mom literally above that world, with the city spread below and the May sky above.
The space as the first argument
Etro Rooftop has a design that needs no explanation. Light wood, dark steel, minimalist lines, curated ambient lighting. The space communicates the same silent luxury that defines Binn Hotel as a whole: nothing redundant, everything with purpose.
Etro’s lounge seating is arranged so each group has perceived privacy without the space losing its collective rooftop energy. It is not a formal restaurant with tables separated by protocol distances: it is a gathering space where the proximity between groups produces a social energy that enclosed terraces do not generate.
For Mother’s Day, the team can coordinate a table with a preferred view of the sunset over the western Antioquian mountains when indicated at booking. That table has a position in the space that is not available for standard reservations: it requires the advance coordination that a special occasion justifies.
The cocktails as the language of the celebration
Etro Rooftop’s author cocktails are not drinks with catchy names. They are preparations with specific technical arguments where each ingredient has a function in the final flavor profile.
The Sabroso ($45,000 COP) uses a red wine reduction with red fruits, spearmint syrup and Absolut Vodka with tonic. The red wine reduction produces a flavor base with more depth than a spirit alone can give, and the spearmint adds a fresh note that balances the density of the reduction. It is the most conversational cocktail on the menu: easy to explain, interesting to try.
The Esfumado ($38,000 COP) has the most visually striking element on the menu: the clarification process produces a transparency that contrasts with the aromatic complexity of the aged rum, Frangelico and tamarind syrup. For Mother’s Day, it is the cocktail that generates the most questions from the table toward the bartender.
For those who prefer classics, the menu includes Negroni, Old Fashioned, Daiquiri, Margarita, Mojito, Moscow Mule and Aperol Spritz among others, from $40,000 COP. The premium spirits selection includes Macallan (12, 15 and 18 years), Glenlivet (12, 15 and 18 years), Don Julio, Patrón Cristalino, Grey Goose and Veuve Clicquot by the bottle.
The sharing plates: building the table together
Etro Rooftop’s gastronomic philosophy is stated in its own menu: the concept is born to be shared, with dishes arriving at the center, inviting the table, the bar and the conversation to blend into the same energy.
For Mother’s Day, that philosophy produces a group dynamic that individual-plate dinners cannot replicate. The group builds the table together: which small plates to start, which medium plates for the center, whether there is room for the Rib Eye or whether to stay with the Slow-Cooked Pork Ribs ($95,000 COP) with fried rice, tatsoi and chives.
- The Pork Belly Baos ($55,000 COP, 3 units) with dark beer and coffee glaze, pickled onions and fresh cilantro are one of the most requested medium plates. The combination of the softness of the steamed bun with the intensity of the coffee glaze produces a texture contrast that generates conversation at the table.
- The Fish Ceviche ($65,000 COP) with seasonal fish marinated in tiger’s milk, chalaca, watermelon gazpacho and hibiscus flower powder is the dish that most represents Etro’s concept: Colombian author cuisine in sharing format, with verifiable origin ingredients and well-applied contemporary technique.
The complete evening: from Etro to La Makha or from La Makha to Etro
One of the advantages of celebrating Mother’s Day at Etro Rooftop is that the experience can have natural continuity in the same building. The transition between the 16th floor and La Makha on the 1st floor of Binn Hotel takes the time of an elevator.
The most frequent sequence for a complete Mother’s Day evening is arriving at Etro for the sunset (5:00 pm to 7:00 pm), sharing plates and cocktails with the view as a backdrop, and going down to La Makha for the 7-course tasting menu if the group wants to extend the gastronomic experience with Colombian author haute cuisine. It also works in reverse: dinner at La Makha first and a closing drink at Etro Rooftop as the city lights up.
The private events concept at Etro Rooftop has more detail on how to coordinate exclusive experiences for groups who want the full space or a private section of the rooftop.
