Stefan from Amsterdam, Netherlands loves to see the hotels and prices on a map

I love to see the available hotels on the map. I move and zoom the map a lot. It's so easy to filter out the hotels that are too far from my preferred location. I also like seeing the hotel prices at a glance on the map markers.

This hotel booking tool has saved me both a lot of time and money.

Anna from St. Petersburg, Russia thinks the budget tools and prices are great

Thanks for a cool new way of booking hotels! On our family trips, we are used to filter the hotels based on our budget. Now we can quickly see the hotels that offer the best deals and that are conveniently located close by the most interesting sights.

The prices on TripSay are always great.

Juan from Barcelona, Spain recommends this site to travelers who know what they want

I found a hotel quickly using the advanced filters. Booking the hotel was easy and straight-forward.

I require a wi-fi, non-smoking room and location near the airport or main railway station. Finally it's easy to find a hotel that suits me. I recommend this tool to other travelers as well.

barcelona from Spain wrote about Barcelona

Barcelona, a designer's dreamed city. Not so many places in the world where one can find so many "design" places. From Barcelona's buildings to Barcelona hotels

oh-barcelona from Spain wrote about Poble Espanyol

This is a great place to spend the afternoon. A town within a city. A full scale model of a Spanish town with copies of real buildings from around Spain.

oh-barcelona from Spain wrote about La Paradeta Seafood Restaurant

What a waste! 5 years in Barcelona without having discovered this restaurant and it’s a true gem. The principal of La Paradeta is simple. It’s all about seafood: fresh, quality seafood caught by the restaurant’s own boat and then displayed as if in a fish market, ready for you to choose exactly what and how much you want to eat. It’s a bit like being in La Boquería but without the wait before you can start eating and the great thing is that you really see the quality of what you are buying. The restaurant itself is of the relaxed café-style that the Spanish and Catalans do so well. Having no waiters and owning their own fishing boat means that they are able to cut some of the cost out of the process. So the pricing is very, very reasonable and very fair as you pay by weight. It may have taken me 5 years to visit La Paradeta but the same cannot be said of the local population. The place gets busy, and early. The good thing is that the queues move fast, with plenty of tables inside and a buzzing but relaxed atmosphere that wants to make you keep going for the evening rather than slip into a carb-induced food coma. So I think you get it. I am a total convert to the cult of La Paradeta and if you get a chance to pay a visit, I have no doubt that you will end up as one too.

The famous German Pavilion was designed for the 1929 Barcelona International Exhibition and reconstructed in 1986 on its original site.

kirsi from Finland wrote about Sagrada Familia

An impressive building, different from any church or cathedral you've ever seen and a must-see in Barcelona. The modern, more recently constructed parts of the cathedral seem odd, but show well the difficulty of continuing the work without any detailed idea of the architects vision. I strongly recommend climbing up the towers - view over barcelona is great! Also interesting is the exhibition of Gaudi's design process and revolutionary ideas - for example the arches are actually modeled upside down using a thread model with tiny hanging weights to simulate gravitation. In the model, the arch settles to a position that supports the structure most efficiently.

leo from Finland wrote about La Rambla

La Rambla.. perhaps the most famous street in Barcelona. Once a quiet street inhabited by artists and the like and now a tourist street that has something going on 24h a day every day of the week. Daytime you can see a lot of performance artists imitating statues, trees, demons, butterflies and what not. They attract an audience and do their thing once you give them money. Be careful, the audience also attracts pickpockets.. Rambla also has the most expensive beer and food probably in the whole of Barcelona, so if you want something less expensive (and probably better) go out a bit.

tilkkuliini from Finland wrote about Camp Nou

There is also a shop in Camp Nou. The shop is in two storeys. It took about an hour to get out the shop, because there was so much to buy. If you have football fans in your family and you have to buy presents to them from your trip, this a good place to shop them. Especially if they are FC Barcelona fans. If they are Real Madrid fans, this could be a bad choice :D You might get the stuff cheaper some where, but I couldn't manage to get out from there with out buying something (I guess you count 100 euros to buying "something"? :P).

tilkkuliini from Finland wrote about Camp Nou

Every football or soccer fan should visit here! And if FC Barcelona is playing, even better. The place is actually really breath-taking, when the whole stadium is full. We visited there when Barcelona was playing against Benfica and the atmosphere was unbelievable. I can't imagine how it must be, when Barce is playing against Real Madrid! Everybody said that it is impossible to get tickets to the game, but we bought them straight from the gates an hour before the game. (Only 90 euros :P)

tilkkuliini from Finland wrote about Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys

I have this strange need to visit all the Olympic stadiums so I have been here also :) This time I didn't go in here so actually I don't know how it looks like, but the surroundings are interesting. You can see quite far away to the hills and there you can see all kinds of buildings. The place kind of reminded me from the original Olympic games in Greece. Well obviosly I didn't live then but anycase :) Maybe someone else knows more about this places' history?

jussi from Finland wrote about Museu Picasso

We thought that we should visit at least one museum on our road trip and ended up going to Picasso Museum. The museum is great. First: they display such a collection from various years of Picasso that it's possible to follow the evolution of his style. Second: they have a nice bar, where a glass or two of red wine is served quickly and at a reasonable price. These two features together almost helped me understand Picasso's art.
