Really fantastic from outside, especially on night, but we think that the interior does not worth the 16,5 euros per person. In fact, that was the most expensive attraction in Barcelona, including the zoo. Visit the nearby Casa Milo, much nicer interiors and half entrance fee. more

This building designed to look like a dragon is a must for Gaudi fans. The price for admission is steep but worth it. The roof is the best part but each and every room is beautiful in its own way. Skip the overpriced gift shop. more

The facade of Casa Batllo will definitely catch your attention but the interior will capture your imagination. The first question that comes to mind is how could this have been designed over 100 years ago?! Between the undulating walls, beautiful tile and nautilus shell - like ceiling you feel as if you are under the sea. This was one of... more

Having seen photographs of Gaudi buildings before going to Barcelona I wasn't at all sure I would like them at all. However, on seeing the Casa Batllo in Passeig de Gracia I was totally converted. Although La Pedrere is much better known than Case Batllo, mainly due to its amazing roof structure, at Casa Batllo the experience is much more... more

I used the 20% discount voucher from the sightseeing bus. The audio guide was a plus. It took me around one hour in the afternoon to complete the tour. more

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the beauty of Gaudi's ex-ordinary vision and architecture of the building. Every bit was interestingly and wonderfully put together. However, €16.50 for a tour in a small city block is kind of excessive. It's no more than the size of Rembrandt Huis in Amsterdam but they are charging double the fee.... There are a... more

get a 10%off coupon and save a little. They are available at some tourist information offices or counters, eg. along La Rambla. It's more expensive than other Gaudi sites, and with good reason. It is a lot bigger than it appears on the Gracia street, do go inside and experience the astonishing yet clever design. Must not be missed. more

I'm amazed that some others think Casa Battlo wasn't worth the money. I enjoyed La Pedrera, but this is much, much, better. The audio guide brings the whole thing alive - I walked around with a gormless smile on my face appreciating the ingenuity and skill that went into the whole development. There is so much to appreciate and enjoy... more

Casa Batllo is one of Gaudi's masterpieces. It is incredible to see up close. The house is weird but stunning. At first I wasn't convinced the €17.50 entry fee was going to be worth it but it was worth every cent. You are given an individual handset and each room has a number for you to punch in to give... more

I went to see Casa Batllo after reading reviews on Trip advisor. The outside of the building is stunning, especially at night, but I didn't think the tour inside warrented the expensive entry fee. If you are going to see anything by Gaudi in Barcelona, go to the Segrada Familla church, it's absolutely incredible! more
