Needs see through curtains. I need an option between the people across the street seeing me completely naked (which I think may be haram for many of them) or blackout curtains where there's no sun. Also what's with the moving furniture early in the morning? That was a big buzzkill.

The room was nice and the staff were helpful. But the traffic noise from outside was not good. Also did not like having to use two different keypads to just get into the building, plus your room key.

Stayed here for 2 nights in January and we were pleasantly surprised.

Whilst the hotel is very conveniently located less than a 30 seconds walk from Parallel metro station, it was a bit hard to find at first as the hotel entrance was a little hard to find. However the hotel staff had messaged us on WhatsApp before our arrival to confirm our room was ready, so a quick WhatsApp message helped us to find the entrance. For future reference to anyone reading this, the entrance is the big glass door with the ‘1’ above it next door to the Plaza restaurant.

When checking in, the hotel staff were patient and friendly. We had been sent an online check in link, but it did not work on my phone initially, so the lady at check in was very patient while we completed this. I believe her name was Erika.

The hotel in general was just five rooms so was very small inside, but our room did not feel small at all and was a very good use of the space. We were worried it would be tiny but this was not the case! The bed was also very comfy as well as very large and both the bedroom and the bathroom were very clean. The room was very nicely decorated and we appreciated the full length mirror!

The location was good - within walking distance of central Barcelona (10-15 mins walk to Las Ramblas, 25-30 mins to Sagrada Familia). And the Parallel metro station is almost right outside the hotel entrance which was perfect for us. There are also some nice bars and restaurants within walking distance!

This is a quirky little place to stay. It's close to everything and the staff (Francesca) was delightful. It's a very small place and up a few flights of stairs so it doesn't look like a hotel from the front.
Don't be put off, the rooms are small but very cute. You'll feel like you're right in the hustle and bustle of Barcelona! We knew that the area was noisy and that isn't the hotel's fault. Take earplugs (they actually provide them for you)..

When you leave the hotel and turn right you're about 7 minutes walk from the marina. You can walk straight on for ten minutes to La Rambla. There are bars and shops right underneath the hotel with a McDonald's less than a minute away if that's your thing. Casa Vaganto is convenient, small and quirky. If you want to know how it feels to live in an apartment in Barcelona then give this a try. It's an old fashioned building with loads of character but has modern fixtures and fittings

The hotel itself is nice, although be advised that it doesn’t have much in the way of signage inside or outside. To enter you go through a door that looks like an apartment building next to a Turkish restaurant. There are stairs up to the elevator and interestingly there are 3 flights up to the first floor where reception is located. Our room was on the floor labeled 2, which was a flight above reception (four flights up from the ground floor). Our room was marked 2-10 and to get to it you had to go through a main door with your key card (this door was labeled ‘3’) and then into room number 10. Our key card randomly stopped working one morning so we couldn’t get back into our room after we had left (reception is not open all the time), but it was working later that day. Despite these oddities, the location is convenient, the place is clean and the staff are all very kind and helpful.

Was expecting a better experience

Disappointing stay, I think the ‘hotel’ consists of 5 rooms, converted from an office/large apartment. Main lobby entrance to suites, all rooms lead off it. Our room had the wall half painted green (with battlements), looked half finished like a student attempting to decorate. Window looked over a narrow, dingy back alley which was the rear or other buildings, laundry hanging out to dry on very messy balconies, also noise from those buildings with their windows and doors open. Noise from floor above every night waking us up. Room had a lot of dust on lamps and floor. On a plus side, free Nespresso coffee, juice, fruit, pastries and yoghurt in the morning, but only from 8.30 onwards and we were gone by then - hotel did not advertise this so was an extra.

But if just looking for a place to stay and can travel conveniently, it maybe good.

Excellent location right next to the Paral-lel metro station. The check-in was fast and so much nicer than the usual hotel check-in as it felt very personal (the check-in desk is actually on an upper floor, so you use the intercom to get into the building and take the elevator up to a small reception area).

Our room was cosy and modern - again a big improvement over typical hotel rooms.

The room was soundproofed but it doesn't stop all sound, but overall, nothing kept us awake or woke us up.

Really happy with this stay in Barcelona. Great location with lots of local restaurants.

A lovely place to stay. It's well located and easy to access the main sites of the city whilst not being overly busy. Just a short (but hilly walk) to Montjuic for stunning views over the city.

We arrived early to leave our bags before check in. The lovely woman in reception was seemingly single handedly sorting everything. When we returned slightly early our room wasn't ready but we didn't mind waiting. She still insisted on giving us a bottle of wine for the inconvenience, not that we felt it was inconvenient at all. We expected to wait a bit.

The room was large, warm, and clean. The shower was amazing. The bed was very comfortable with both soft and memory pillows. We'd highly recommend staying here and will definitely stay here again when we visit Barcelona again.

Was actually going to give a much higher rating, everything was fine right up until we left. But literally the last hour of us being there left a bit of a sour note on this place!

Firstly I want to list the good points - staff were friendly for the most part. The breakfast, though basic and the happy hour drinks were very nice touches.

There is a metro station right outside of the hotel and good bus connections.

The room and reception is fairly clean, looks just like the photos too. Though one of the lightbulbs in our room was not working which we alerted them of on the first day we arrived and it was never fixed during our stay.

Here’s the part that made things weird. On our last day we were allowed to leave our bags after checkout and come back for them later. We checked out before 9am and came back around 4pm to collect our luggage. We had around 30-40 minutes spare before we had to go to the airport. Usually most hotels are okay with you just sitting in the lounge for a bit, so this is what we did. They have a coffee / tea station which you can use any time during opening hours. One of us made a coffee but before the other two could, the staff member on shift had taken part of coffee machine away and also the kettle?? Very passive aggressive, didn’t tell us we couldn’t use the facilities just straight up took them away. Such bizarre behaviour! Like having one last cup of coffee / tea was going to bankrupt them or something!

Casa Vaganto has a unique boutique B&B feel. The rooms are lovingly decorated with a contemporary Spanish feel, and the community breakfast /coffee area was stylish and very comfortable. The \"light continental breakfast\" was more than that with warm fresh baked croissants, veggie & fruit options, a fritatta or other warm dish, and yogurt, and there's an espresso machine for diy cappuccinos, lattes or espresso. Tea and orange juice were also available. We were greeted by Cecille, and she was great-- super friendly, and knowledgeable. We took advantage of leaving our luggage for the day after checking out and when we returned Cecille offered to have us sit down and have a coffee and rest before leaving for our flight. The hotel is located very close to the Metro, and this made getting to Sagrada Familia, Montjuic, and many other locations -- including the airport-- very easy. I highly recommend this place! We would return in a heartbeat.

It was an easy spot to get to right after the airport. The room is typically small for Europe no surprises there but really well designed. We wish we went to the happy hour but came home too late most days. The hotel is located a block away from an alley full of tapas restaurants and lots of markets near by.
