The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Eixample
Passing through the glorious Plaça Catalunya, you enter the newer city district of Eixample, literally translated as “extension,” which immediately becomes recognisable by its more spacious streets and elegant atmosphere. The main artery of this sizable district, Passeig de Gracia, is lined with high-end international designer stores. Not to be outdone, the glitz and glamour of this zone is perhaps best exemplified by the comfortable and lavish five-star hotels that flank the divine and modernistic buildings from some of the world’s most recognised architects such as Gaudi and Montaner.
How to get there
  • Passeig de Gràcia • 4 min walk
  • Provença • 8 min walk

    Gaudi’s residential gem
    I’ve loved this idiosyncratic building ever since I first saw a picture of it in a modernist architecture book. So it was quite a thrill to see it in person. Gaudi’s unmistakable flourish, quirky, fairytale quality, colourful mosaics, wavy roof and rich imagery.

    A must see in Barcelona.
    Great place with an amazing story of the architect. It’s a must see when in Barcelona. We got the gold package as it looked like the lines were crazy long. So it was a bit pricy (45 euros each). Very cool though and worth it.

    Amazing Facade
    So different! So elegant! The flow of the shapes, the blend of colours… sat in front of it just to enjoy the look. Beautiful is in adequate to describe another of Gaudi’s creation. We didn’t book tickets before hand so we didn’t have time to go in. Really regretted that.

    A Must See in Barcelona!
    Of all the sights we saw in Barcelona, this one was my favorite! Definitely get tickets in advance. Everything was well organized. I didn't understand the purpose of the small tablets at first, so that could have been better explained. The immersive film at the end was really cool.

    Beautiful building
    What a cool place. This was a very interesting building and great art work. We booked fast track online and arrived during our time slot. We got the audio guide, which comes with an iPad and if you look around the room it uncovers some hidden surprises. It was not over crowded and when we got to the roof had a drink at the bar. What a cool experience.

    An absolute must see!
    Casa Battlo will take your breath away. Antoni Gaudi’s innovative architectural design plays form with functionality. Every element of the Casa Battlo delights your eyes while performing its physical duties. The Gold pass is well worth the investment. Be certain to go to the roof to enjoy Barcelona!

    Wonderful experience
    Amazing experience. I’d read a few bad reviews so I wasn’t sure what to expect but we had the best time here! It was just me and my little boy who is 5, we got the gold tickets which I would fully recommend. You get a tablet with earphones as you walk around the house with lots of information on the rooms. There’s also some rooms and areas that are only open to gold ticket holders. We spent almost two hours here. It was busy but I expected that. We went on an evening where visitors got a glass of cava which was very nice to drink while walking around and out on to the patio area. The immersive experience at the end was short but brilliant and my little boy loved that bit! The queues for the blue tickets looked very long but I didn’t have to wait at all with the gold ticket.

    Take the gold pass. It gives you an express access, a tab with a built-in audio book. If you want better pictures, take the first tour. Later, it’s like a fair, even the outside. The last ai generated feature where they take you inside Gaudí’s mind will steal your heart ❤️ There is a photo op on the top where they’ll charge you around 14 euros but it’s really worth it . Pls book tickets well in advance. Else, you’ll be disappointed.

    Busy but enjoyable!
    Booked tickets in advance and booked the no-frills blue option. Had to queue for about 20 mins, but no problem and very well organised. It was busy, so be prepared and just go with the flow! The audio guide was good, quite bizarre at times, but I enjoyed it! There is a bar on the roof top, but we didn't get a drink so don't know how much it was. You can also pop your head out of a balcony and pay for a photo, but we didn't do that either The cube experience at the end was great and a bit of a bonus! Spent about an hour and a half there, and enjoyed it!

    Excellent family’s tour
    I had a chance to visit Casa Batilo with my 18yo daughter. The place is ver well organized Uze’s with simple access. Tying ticket was easy and fast. The visit is guided via audio portable devices that you can tune to different channels. Very well explained and engaging. The bouquet final is amazing with a 3D show.

Casa Batllo is an architectural treasure, but you probably should pass on paying the exorbitant fee to visit the interior of this house. My wife and I paid the 25 euro each fee, buying tickets online in advance. This saved us 4 euro each to buy online and the price included an audio/video guide: Our take: even during the low season, the place is too crowded and 25 euro each is too expensive. Unless you’re a huge architecture or Gaudí fan (or are not worried about money at all), save your money, see the exterior of the building, and visit some of the other sights in the city instead, including the less costly and far more essential Sagrada Família.

To management: An appropriate fee for Casa Battlo would be around 10-15 euro each given pricing for other sights in the city.

As we didn't purchase the tickets in advance, it was nice to discover no queues on a February afternoon.
The audio guide tries to fill in the gaps, by displaying some firnishings etc, as the house itself is completely bare.
It clearly once was a fabulous home, but the current maintenance does it little justice. From broken skirtings, to faded woodwork and some damaged walls, the building is sadly not looking its best.
The entry charge is steep, and no concessions (which makes it a very dear experience with 3 children in tow). There are further attempts to make you part with even more money, as entry to some areas is an extra €10 (yes, children are chareged too), and a photo opportunity, which could be nice,starts at €12 a pic(though the pgotographer assured me it would be only €6). Again, I would have been happier to support the conservation of this interesting structure had it been treated better.

Dear user Michal B, Thank you for visiting Casa Batllo and sharing your opinion publicly. In reference to your comment, we regret that your visit to this World Heritage, recognized as a legend of the art, architecture and timeless design, thanks to the immense creativity displayed by Gaudí, has not matched your expectations. Through the most advanced video tour guide in the world, delivered to all visitors at the entrance, you are given the opportunity to see an enhanced reality virtually. With this guide you can discover how the Batlló family lived in Barcelona in the early twentieth century, especially getting to see the original furniture and decoration, besides knowing all of Gaudí ́s creative universe reflected in this building. Also at the entrance of the Casa Batllo shop located on the first floor, you can see several chairs designed by Gaudí for this House. For maintenance and influx of public it is not feasible to leave them in their original position. Also several pieces of hand crafted furniture are now in the collection of different museums. Just in case you are interested, we invite you to explore the history and sights of this jewel of modernism in depth through our website. Thank you again for your comment, we hope to see you again.

The building is a true masterpiece - outstanding facade and unique interior. The two problems we had during the visit are: 1) The price for tickets is more expensive in person, which is not mentioned online on the page for ticket info. We could totally buy it online but we didn’t see a necessity, so we didn’t. Then we found out on the spot about the difference when it was too late already. In my opinion this should be written on the website when you check the price and the hours. 2) The house was extremely overcrowded. We visited on Monday around 11 AM and there were no timed tickets. Everybody was entering. Inside you couldn’t move and it was a real struggle to take photos. People were pushing. I got very irritated at some point. Couldn’t fully enjoy the architecture and design that I came for.
So my advice is to buy tickets online and maybe try lunch time, when everybody goes to eat.

Dear user KatrinaMolini, We greatly appreciate your opinion. In reference to your comment, we are sorry you found lot of people during your visit. Many people obviously decided to visit this World Heritage site at the same time as you. It is one of the most visited monuments in Barcelona and for this reason, we at Casa Batlló, always recommend coming to visit the House first thing in the morning or the last thing in the evening as these are the times when there are fewer people. However, we take your comment on board. Your opinions are very helpful for us to provide a responsible use for this heritage house. Thank you for sharing your opinion. Yours sincerely, Casa Batllo Barcelona

We queued for this attraction at 4.30pm on weekend of 11/12th July. We worked our way through the casa and it was maybe unsurprisingly sparse. All are provided with a tour with headphones in respective language. We did take a few photos and really enjoyed our time here. It was rather expensive to get in (the most expensive of all of our visits to attractions but worth it I think as a) I really wanted to see it and b) the fee is used to upkeep the venue.

When inside the casa we saw the queue forming and felt glad that we visited early and had the place to ourselves and was able to really to soak in the atmosphere of the building.

We pre-booked tickets to Casa Batllo for an evening visit, which included a rooftop concert. This is a great way to see Gaudi at his best. Very unusual, but truly ahead of its time, architecture. You can meander through the different rooms of this very interesting building at your own pace using the accompanying audio tour provided though the headphones. If you like Gaudi, and something a little different, this is worth a visit.
The rooftop concert was very relaxed and Gisela Novais was really good, she engaged with the audience well and has a great voice that suited the rhythm and blues repetoire of easy listening. A great night out.

Incredible building like Gaudi himself. January is good for visit because not crowd. The building and style are very unique. Audio guide is great with depicting furniture and scenes from the times when living in the home. The ticket price is too high like every ticket in Barcelona

The house is very special and a great place to visit for anyone who is a fan of art nouveau. One thing to keep in mind is that Casa Batllo is definitely overpriced as are most Gaudi experiences. As long as you understand this, the visit will be enjoyable.

Our visit took place on a rainy Tuesday. Remember that you still have to queue even if you have paid in advance - unless you specifically pay to skip the line (yes, they will make money any possisble way here).

The audio guide is fun and uses AR to present how the rooms previously looked like. However it'll constantly push the wrong audio on unless you have it all the time in your hand. Still very informative and nice touch with the AR.

This house was just 100m from our hotel and it was a very windy rainy day so perfect for a visit. It was busy with a steady stream of people. To state the obvious the design, style, architecture and the building was very unique and way ahead of its time concerning the use of natural light and air conditioning. The audio guide was very good and it shed light on many aspects of the designer ideas, Mr. Gaudi. The ticket price is on the high side but worth it.

There was room to move around in this house. The tour guide noted that during high-season everyone is falling over each other. This day it was snowing inside. The top of the "casa" offers a panoramic view of the city.

If you come to Barcelona, you must visit Antoni Gaudi's works of which Casa Batllo is one of them. We went during the day and there are already many tourists outside taking pictures of the unique front. I do recommend going back at night as it does look quite different and is worth another picture.
Upon entering, I recommend taking your time with the audio tour. It is quite entertaining learning the history and inspiration of Antoni Gaudi. His works are certainly unlike any other buildings you will see and it is difficult to describe it unless you visit it in person.
