允許別人做別人,允許自己做自己,一歲有一歲的風景,一站也有一站的味道,做自己, 跟著自己的心走就好!
這麼美麗的建築,不來好好的一探究竟實在太可惜,我們住的旅館離這個Casa Batllo 非常的接近,所以我們在裡面逛街,每天都在旁邊走來走去,不管我們幾點過去,前面總是排滿的人潮,那我們真的到裡面去探訪時,天啊!真的是要走往下走,再往上走,再往下走,再往上走,可以確定一件事情,就是要到這個地方來,一定要趁你還年輕的時候,腳還走得動,不然對老人家我而言,就已經好像在開運動會差不多了,高帝的建築物,從頭到尾沒有一條直線 ,有到巴薩隆那來, 這裡, 要來歐!Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jennifer B.Mishawaka, IN142621529Mar 8, 2024
There's a lot of architecture in this world that I'll catch your attention, and this might be one of those for you. I admit there are some really amazing and unique features and qualities to this building: Like the balconies that look like dia de los muertos masks, or the fact that it's covered in mosaic.
The roof is also a unique feature and that it is curved and looks scaled.And I think I've seen that it's referred to as a dragons back. This is a good description of this roof, as it does resemble this creature. But I think the setting that it's in, in the city; It's not quite on the corner but it's the second building in, and several of those buildings have a particular look to it, that you might almost miss it, as most of the architecture in the city is quite phenomenal.
I will say that night time seems to be one of the best times to view the building at least from the outside because they have a lit and such a manner that gives it an eerie and spiritual quality almost hunted but not. It brings its level of art form up a notch or two, and I found that I appreciate the exterior far more as it's lit up at night, and I did during the day. I will try to get a picture of it at night and post that photo for you as well. But either way if you have a chance to come here, it's worth looking at for sure, and I would recommend that you do so.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 358184Apr 2, 2024Updated review
This was visually pleasing on the outside and just as appealing on the inside. I assumed it would just be a walk through thing, and had no idea what I was getting with the price we paid. We paid for the most expensive Gold experience. We got a tablet with headphones that gave us an interactive tour. It's self guided, with full explanation of Gaudi's vision behind his design. We got a glass of champagne when we reached the livingroom area and looked down at the Main Street. The extensive detail put into this home was astonishing. I enjoyed the roof top terrace. There's a gorgeous bar you can buy drinks from. At the end of the tour there is a 3 minute video experience that is awe inspiring. All walls, ceiling and floor are screens. We loved it and highly recommend going.

I love Gaudi's work and this place celebrates it like none other. I've been so many of his landmarks in Barcelona but the whimsical vibes here are so enchanting! What a sight to see! Be sure to add this to your list and get tickets early!

This is definitely one of Gaudi's works that you should check out if you're in Barcelona (this and Sagrada Familia, at the least)!
The ceilings, stairs, chandeliers, walls, doors and much more are all interesting and come together to make this worth the cost of admission.
There are a few tourist trap type elements to it (having your photo taken and paying for it, the gift shop, etc) but I know that the proceeds from those things go to the foundations to complete/conserve Gaudi's work. So it's a double edged sword, necessary to keep the art alive, but taking away from the art a tad bit :-(
If the line is long for tickets and you are wanting to get in without the wait, I advise buying the skip the line digital tickets from the Batllo website. It's only a few dollars more and you can buy them in under a minute on your smartphone if you get to the Casa and the line is crazy!
So overall it is a tad expensive if you only view it as a "house tour" but it is quite beautiful and worth it as a work of art.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mahnaz B.Los Angeles, CA892232439Jan 29, 2024

I really wanted to see this house on my first visit to Barcelona based on pictures I'd seen online and it did not disappoint.
There are three types of passes to get in - blue, silver, gold. Gold gives you access to all areas and a tablet with a headset plus the bedroom area and a shorter line to get in.
Upon entering you know it's going to be special .. there's a magical first room with a table that has an octopus leg.. beautiful.
The signage has a symbol which indicates the area you're in and the tablet has the matching sign so you can follow along.
The bedroom area was beautiful, very spacious.. the entire house was amazing. So much care and detail to make this house magical and functional.
There is a café area on the roof deck with sangria, wine, coffee and soft drinks .. food items are limited to chips, olives and another item that escapes me.
The cube at the end of the tour is not recommended if you have epilepsy or are prone to seizures as the entire room becomes a giant screen flashing light art installation.
There are also two gift shops worth visiting one on the ground floor is open to the public, the other is on a middle floor and can only be accessed while on a tour.
I would recommend a visit to this house if you enjoy looking up at the architecture in Barcelona, you will not be disappointed.Helpful 14Thanks 0Love this 14Oh no 0 - Aug 23, 2023
Of the two Gaudi houses we visited, this was my favorite. The entire theme is "the sea" and you can feel it throughout the house from when you first lay eyes on it. Every aspect of it flowed and created movement within the stone. I loved the audio tour. They give you headphones and an iPad to show you how the room looked when it was first built as well as the inspiration for the decoration choice. For example, some of the vents were designed after fish gills. They actually take the gills of the fish to show you how it inspired him. There were many other animals represented such as a sea turtle, whale, and more. They give you a little surprise at the end with an amazing visual show. If you can only pick one of the Gaudi houses (beside the San Grada Familia of course), I would choose this one. It was aesthetically beautiful and a great joy to experience.

Casa Batlló is an absolute beauty. This man Gaudí really knows how to throw a masterpiece together. If you've seen other buildings that have been designed by Gaudí, then you'll easily be able to tell that this is also one of his famously designed buildings just by looking at the outside. Gaudí's love for designing using unique shapes and bright colors really shine through with Casa Batlló.
His heavy use of intricate stained glasses and mosaic art is quite mesmerizing. The ceiling details and lovely chandeliers are also not to be missed. If embarking on a self guided audio tour, you will learn about the great measures that be took in designing each and every element of this structure. The home is actually several stories high and has a ton of rooms, but obviously not all of them are open to the public. But still, what you're able to see during your visit here is quite stunning.
The self guided tour includes an audio set with headphones. You'll be scaling up quite a few stairs, so I'd suggest that you wear comfortable shoes. Usually the rooftops have been my favorite element of Gaudí buildings, but this is one where the interior blows the rooftop out of the water.
There are two separate lines near the entrance; one for tickets and the other for admittance into the museum. If you haven't purchased a ticket or you have a Go City Pass, you must redeem your ticket first before heading into the admittance line. It's best to get your tickets in advance to avoid the lines and confusion.
At the end of the exhibit, there's a neat video that transports you into a virtual art reality. They give you the option to stay and watch it or to leave. If you have time, check it out. It's quite neat and is only a few minutes long. If your a fan of Gaudí architecture, I'd highly recommend a visit to Casa Batlló.Helpful 15Thanks 0Love this 17Oh no 0 - Oct 25, 2023
I love this place. A lot of opportunities to take great pictures. It's a good size so you could spend a lot of time here, just admiring the works of art. We did the silver pass, which featured almost everything the gold one does except for like one small area. It was very busy but not like shoulder to shoulder. Employees were nice and helpful. Plan to spend 3-5 hrs.
