Medellín is a city that surprises from every angle, but it is from above that it shows its most sophisticated side. In recent years, rooftops have become a symbol of premium lifestyle in the city, offering spaces where luxury, signature cocktails, and panoramic views come together in memorable experiences.
Among all the options, Etro Rooftop, on the 16th floor of Binn Hotel, in El Poblado, stands out as one of the most exclusive: a setting designed for those seeking intimacy, elegance, and a view of the Aburrá Valley. Whether for a sunset cocktail, a romantic dinner, or a private celebration, this rooftop redefines what it means to enjoy Medellín in style.
Why Etro Is the Most Exclusive Rooftop
What sets Etro Rooftop apart is its quiet luxury concept: an exclusive, elegant, and discreet experience, with a minimalist, sophisticated design that prioritizes quality and privacy. Unlike more crowded, mass-market spaces, Etro was designed to offer exclusivity and intimacy, where architectural design and attention to detail are meant to surprise the visitor.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the mountains of the Aburrá Valley and Medellín’s skyline, offering a 360-degree panoramic view that turns the space into an ideal setting for those seeking to enjoy the city from an intimate atmosphere, away from the crowds. With capacity for 80 seated guests or 150 in a cocktail-style format, in a 120-square-meter area with a 3.20-meter ceiling height, the venue maintains a balance between exclusivity and versatility for different types of visits.
Experience and Service
Etro Rooftop is an extension of the boutique luxury lifestyle that defines Binn Hotel. Here, hospitality combines with sensory experience, allowing visitors to enjoy a space that reflects the hotel’s philosophy: exclusivity, personalization, and elegance.
Etro Rooftop and La Makha, the restaurant within the Binn Hotel ecosystem, are the hotel’s flagship venues, with high perceived value and a clear focus on romantic and intimate celebrations that create special moments. Each space offers a unique proposal, adaptable to different formats and needs, allowing for tailor-made experiences that connect emotionally with those visiting the rooftop.
Etro Rooftop is one of the favorite spots for couples seeking an intimate, romantic atmosphere, with valley views, warm lighting, and the possibility of personalizing certain details of the visit depending on the occasion, whether a special celebration, an anniversary, or simply a moment of connection without a formal reason. The venue is also versatile enough to adapt to different social event formats, always within the focus on privacy and sophistication that defines the space.
Cocktails and Cuisine
Mixology is one of Etro Rooftop’s biggest draws. The house signature sits on five cocktails, each built on a different spirit base:
- Esfumado ($38,000 COP): aged rum, Frangelico, tamarind syrup and orange peel, lemon juice, and clarified.
- Silencio ($38,000 COP): Absolut Vodka infused with coconut oil, thyme syrup, and mandarin lemon juice, topped with soda.
- Sabroso ($45,000 COP): red wine reduction with berries, mint syrup, and Absolut Vodka with tonic.
- Niebla ($60,000 COP): Ojo de Tigre mezcal from 8-year-old Espadín agave, with pennyroyal syrup and mandarin lemon.
- Revelación Rubí ($45,000 COP): bourbon with rye notes, corozo syrup, pineapple extract, and lemon juice.
Each drink is designed to accompany the moment of the day it is enjoyed, from a quiet afternoon to a night of celebration. Beyond these signature cocktails, the menu includes fourteen classic cocktails ranging from $40,000 to $61,000 COP, a selection of international wines, premium spirits, and champagne.
As for dining, Etro Rooftop is known not only for its cocktails but also for its culinary offering. The menu includes small, medium, and large dishes, plus desserts, designed for sharing at the table, combining fresh ingredients with careful presentation.
If your interest in dining goes beyond the rooftop’s menu, it is worth considering La Makha, the flagship restaurant of the Binn Hotel ecosystem, with a cocina de origen menu that includes dishes like confited Octopus with rooftop herb chimichurri ($135,000 COP) or the Certified Angus Beef Rib Eye Grill ($275,000 COP), plus a tasting menu for one person starting at $330,000 COP, with a pairing option.
