I have visit Barcelona a few times and found Vrabac to be much nicer than the hotel I stayed in last time. We requested and recieved a room with private bathroom. The bathroom was ensuite with a shower, toilet and bidet. The bed was large, firm and comfortable. We had lovely Spanish tiled floors and a view out to the... More

This was my 6th visit to Barcelona and I will definitely be staying here if I go back again. I was recommended it by a friend who insisted that I stayed here and I can see why. A great location, just off the Ramblas and near a metro station. The staff were very helpful. Provided great location recommendations about placed... More

I was very excited about by my stay at and had lashed out a bit to stay here but was in utter shock when I arrived. Although the room is nice the bathroom\toilet facilities are nothing like those online. Along with that I had some other concerns listed below which I emailed to the owners. - facilities not like website... More

Communication with Nicolas & Oscar while making arrangements prior to my vacation was excellent; they responded promptly and provided important information such as directions from the airport and method of payment. We stayed in a double bedroom with a shared bathroom. The shared bathroom consists of 2 toilets in 2 separate rooms in the hallway. Across the hall, there are... More

We appreciate your review about Vrabac Guesthouse Barcelona on Trypadvisor. We are happy that your stay on the second floor was nice, although it brought back memories of youth college. We hope that guests who stay Vrabac honour the silence, peace and restful of the place. This is very important to us, particularly during the night and early morning hours.... More

Located in a great place to explore many of the main areas of Barcelona on foot and with nearby access to the metro for further afield. The room was tidy and spacious, while the breakfast set you up well for the day. The staff were helpful and accommodating. Worth requesting a room that isn't at the front, as the pedestrian... More

My wife and I embarked on a 6-week European Adventure from our island paradise in Hawaii. We entered in southern Spain, trekked through Italy and France, finishing up in Germany. We took this first-ever trip ever to Europe to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, her 50th birthday, and my retirement. We planned the trip meticulously for nearly a year but... More

After returning from a 5 week holiday staying in a total of 17 different hotels, my husband and I sat down to decide which was our favourite.... Vrabac Guesthouse was the absolute standout for countless reasons. Vrabac is in a perfect location right near Las Ramblas, but still feels completely secure and quiet, day or night. The rooms are beautifully... More

This was my second time at Vrabac and they have since expanded to a second floor. I think everything has already been said about this awessome guesthouse. There is no elevator and it is on the fourth floor which might deter some but otherwise it's perfect, great central location, clean bathrooms(shared or private), cozy, free wifi, organic breakfast. I couldn't... More

Vrabac is the type of place you want to keep as a secret to share with only your closest friends - but that would be churlish and selfish. You enter the building through a door so thick and heavy that it could repel Genghis Khan's marauding hordes into a stairwell floored in pale marble. The guesthouse occupies 2 floors within... More

This is a fantastic guest house, despite being in a very central location it's very peaceful & quiet. The owners are fantastic and the rooms lovely. We had a couple of nights in a room with a shared bathroom (before moving to a room with en suite) and it wasn't a problem at all. Would highly recommend this to anyone... More
