This is without a doubt the best Gaudi house we visited in Barcelona. A very impressive piece of architecture. The house is beautiful inside and out, and the house provides full access to the rooms used by the Guell family for living and entertaining. We took the audioguide self guided tour and it was a great experience. Here you get exactly what you expect: a great design and excellent execution of the design in the architecture. No electronics boxes, no stores in the middle of the house to fill up space, and no one asking you for extra money to see an additional room like in Casa Batllo. And by the way, the entry fee here is half of what the places in Passeig de Gracia charge with lots and lots more to offer. The audioguide (free with your ticket) was very informative and interesting, and easy to follow. The staff is friendly and helpful. We purchased tickets onsite around mid-day on a Wednesday and the house was fairly empty, so we got to take some great photos. the rooftop is beautiful with all the colorful vents. Don’t waste your money and time in Casa Batllo and Casa Mila, come here and be wowed for less than half the cost. We highly recommend this place.

The palace was built in 1885-1890. It is one of the early works of the famous Gaudi. The design of the palace for the first time reflected the combination of decorative and structural elements, which later became a characteristic feature of his work. Gaudí used steel supporting structures in various ways in decorative design. In the palace, he designed flat Byzantine vaults.

I would probably recommend buying tickets in advance online, than waiting in line at the spot... Palau Güell was a very lovely program for us. We really enjoyed going around with an audio guide, so we did everything in our own time which was really nice. For rainy days its a good program to fit into your itinerary.

Exquisite throughout, it was a marvellous visit, from entrance floor to majestic roof. Beautiful ornateness is everywhere, including lovely wrought iron artistic forms. Stained glass, stone craft, inverted cone brick columns and of course the fabulous roof creations. Chimneys in Gaudi’s signature style are wonderful. Numbering 20 in total, they are a melange of decorative apogee, with eclectic shape and tiling and mosaic styles.

On previous visits to Barcelona we had visited Casa Batló and the Sagrada Familia however we had run out of time before getting to visit this wonderful Palau. Designed by Gaudi for his patron Eusebi Güell this beautiful building contains many aspects of design which feature in Gaudis later work.. Words cannot do this place justice. You can download audio, video and written guides and once inside you are free to wander at your own pace.. Lockers are provided to store coats and bags and there are toilets and a gift shop although no hard sell. There are a lot of stairs, however there is an elevator should you required it.. The Palau is beautiful and well worth the €12 entrance fee.. I would recommend a stop on your next trip to Barcelona..

In our past visits to Barcelona, this palace was not noted although we visited other Gaudi buildings. It does take some walking up, but is well worth the time. It's location at the bottom of the Ramba makes it easy to find. We had not booked tickets, but on a Thursday late afternoon, we simply bought our tickets - at senior rate - and enjoyed the self-guided tour very much. We find that when groups arrive, we just step aside and let them pass through as they don't stop to examine much detail. Definitely should be added to the list of Gaudi showpieces if you like his amazing work.

The sheer imagination of Gaudi was our first impression as we entered the park. It was definitely worth going with a tour guide to the park as he was able to give details that added to the experience. I liken Gaudi to Frank Lloyd Wright in that he brings nature into his designs. Definitely avoid on the weekend if possible as it's a popular spot.

For some reason this palace doesn’t readily come up in searches of Guadí houses. It’s right near La Boqueria and La Rambla, and it was really beautiful. Easy audio guide on the phone. Make sure to see the awesome, colorful chimneys on the roof!

This place was great! We wanted to visit one of Gaudi's creations, but some of the more popular ones were really expensive and a bit more of a walk from our airbnb. We had 2 kids with us, who likely wouldn't quite care enough to justify the price. Then we found this one! We spent about 2 hours here. Really enjoyed the kids audio guide, seeing the interesting basement, beautiful rooftop and so much more. So much interesting architecture, interesting things to learn from the audio guide and amazing place to visit.

Another Gaudi’s work, this one is in early age and it is even in El Raval neighbourhood. The place used a lot of different materials, like ironwork, stone and of course pottery. The irongate definitely is one of the most eye-catching part! Also, there are a lot of new concept of space and lighting in that time, alongside with various decorative details!
