Summary: Barcelona Bible
Review: Having just returned from a trip from Barcelona with this book firmly anchored in my side bag, I can attest to how spot-on its recommendations were all about town. From bars to cafes, museums and parks, architecture to paella, this guide will give you the info you need. The only downside is a few out-of-date entries, and a map that's often confusing. Pair this book guide with a Streetwise and you can't go wrong...

Summary: Hip Book
Review: If you're going to bring only one book with you, this is the one! Unlike many of the other guide books, the restaurant suggestions were actually good. I spent a few months in Barcelona and had several books with me, but in the end, this was the only one worth using. I've found many guide books to be aimed at the collegiate set or the elderly. As a twenty-something looking for hip bars, good restaurants, and insider tips, I found this to be the most helpful. It also has all the info you need about museums, sights, transportation, hotels, etc.
