5.0 out of 5 stars Another good rough guide, 14 Jan 2005
By R. Farrelly "Monkeynuts" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well worth the money for that weekend break or longer. The book gave us excellent tips on using a Barcelona card for travel, which gives you discount on loads of sightseeing. This saved us a fare bit of money for our weekend break. It describes the places perfectly everyone said don't got to Las Ramblas but the book says it how it is. We did go to Las Ramblas and found it a perfect starting point as everything leads from there anyway. I would recommend the book and Barcelona...I look forward to my next trip and chapter!

5.0 out of 5 stars Our Bible, 18 Mar 2004
My friend and I recently spent a long weekend in Barcelona and found that the Rough Guide was indispencable. We took it everywhere with us and on the one occasion that we forgot it, we felt naked and had to rush back to our hotel to get it!
I would recommend this book to anyone travelling to Barcelona.
We have already purchased our next Rough Guide to start planning our next trip!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best guide to Barcelona I've read, 12 Jun 2001
By A Customer
When I went to Barcelona recently I relied heavily on this guide book and found it very useful for my purposes. I found it very well laid out and much easier to plan my time with than the Lonely Planet guide. It was also good on background information (history, architecture etc) and practical information such as restaraunts, getting around the city etc.

The only drawback with this book was that there were fewer pictures than some other guides but personally I didn't find this an important omission.

2.0 out of 5 stars Far too wordy
Don't get this if you are off for a city break or similar. It is written in a very dry style and would benefit greatly from some more headings. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars a useful mixture of practical and background information
