What makes Barcelona Barcelona, is its Barceloneta beach. If you're looking for a relaxing and fun trip by the beach, if the BEACH is your main center of attention and willing to spend the most time at, you'd rather take a hotel in the Barceloneta neighborhood. This never ending corniche never seem to rest. From sunbathing in summer heats, to partying till dawn, to jogging and cycling, it really is what gives this city its Life.
