"This undulating beast is another madcap Gaudí masterpiece, built in 1905-10 as a combined apartment and office block." Full review
Time Out "It is a stupendous and daring feat of architecture, and the culmination of the architect's experimental attempts to recreate natural forms with bricks and mortar." Full review
Michelin Guide 3 Stars
"More commonly known as "La Pedrera", this building, with its façade evoking the movement of the sea and its fantasy decor, is one of Gaudí's finest achievements." Full review
Fodor's "With its wavy, curving stone facade undulating around the corner of the block, is one of Gaudí's most celebrated yet initially reviled designs." Full review

Afar Magazine "The rooftop is now a destination for lovers of Barcelona and Antoni Guadi's "Modernisma" style." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Nicknamed "La Pedrera" (stone quarry), Casa Milà in Eixample was completed by Gaudí in 1912, and is known as his final civic work"
