Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    I really enjoyed learning about Gaudi and the building's architecture. Before concluding the trip, we were able to enjoy a refreshing beverage at the café located on the roof terrace.

    Casa Mila a true architectural gem. The wavy facade and stunning rooftop offer a glimpse into Gaudi’s genius. A must visit for any architecture lover!

    The event begins at 9.30 p.m. and the venue fills up by 9 o'clock. Our arrival at 8:30 gave us excellent viewing locations. It lasts for an hour and is free. It was amazing during the thirty minutes that we watched it.

    It's difficult to tell since there are so many, one of which is in Madrid, but it's a wonderful avenue with excellent stores, eateries, and cafés. Extremely alternative and bohemian. minimal traffic as well (for Barcelona).

    Las Ramblas is a pedestrian-only street that is great to visit and experience. With so many food options and shopping options you cant go wrong. Plus it is close to other monuments and historical sites that you can walk to all in one day and enjoy. Love all the side streets you can take and go through that are off of Las Ramblas. Also you can take metro and get off at one of the stops that are there.

    I know you will read about watching out for pick pockets and all that but truthfully you do that no matter where you go and travel. Out of all the times visiting and walking through the Las Ramblas with my family not once did we experience any of that or not feel safe, not saying it does not happen but we did not. I will definitely come and visit Las Ramblas when back in Barcelona and experience it a lot more.

    Interesting and original building by Gaudi. The audioguide is very helpful as it explains every room in detail with historic context. Can be visited for free on the first sunday of each month.

    Our taxi deposited us here to begin our morning exploration of Montjuic, and it did not disappoint. The center is occupied by an impressive fountain, while the ring around the traffic circle is surrounded by structures that are noteworthy in their own rights.

    Our family of two adults, a 9 year old and a 7 year old visited Barcelona for 3 days in July. We stayed in a hotel about 3 minutes walk away from the square (see separate review).

    We enjoyed walking through the square many times and shopped and ate in the various establishments around the square - see my separate reviews.

    This is also where we took our hop on hop off bus which was handy for getting around and seeing this lovely city.

    We stayed for 3 nights and could not fault this hotel. The staff were friendly & very helpful. The whole hotel was spotless. The breakfast selection was adequate. One thing that I feel the rooms could do with is a fridge. It was very warm when we were there but we had nowhere to keep our water cool.

    Our family of two adults, a 9 year old and a 7 year old visited Barcelona for 3 days in July. We had dinner at a restaurant in this square one weekday evening (see separate review).

    Placa Reial is a busy hub of restaurants with some small market stalls in the centre next to the fountain. It comes alive in the evening.

    You'll find this sure just off Las Ramblas about half way down/up.

    Make sure you look up around the beautiful building exteriors.

    It's obvious that this was once an industrial area, but it is slowly being converted to new uses, offices and apartments, some hotels. Some of the old buildings have been turned into restaurants and clubs. Metro stations are here, you are very close to the Sea.

    I recommend visit this attraction early in the morning during high season.

    "The world comes to life with each kiss" serves as the title for this artwork, and its uniqueness lies in the captivating narrative that accompanies the mural.
    Upon initial observation, one sees the central theme of a kiss. However, upon closer inspection, the intricate details reveal that the kiss is composed of numerous small photographs. These photos, specifically depicting the theme of "freedom," were contributed by readers of the Spanish Newspaper El Periódico. The mural is comprised of 80 columns and 50 rows of tiles, covering a total area of 30.4 square meters

    A famous place and the final resting area for legions down the years.

    Impressive memorials of all varieties are here. In the Sunday morning tranquillity it was thoughtful walking around and seeing all the heartfelt remembrances.

    This has only been open for a few years and is not as well known as other Gaudi works. Worth a visit if you have time. A little out of the way. We love castles and this fit the bill. Nice grounds and not crowded. The view from the room is wonderful.
