Barcelona is a city famous for its splendid Modernist architecture, numerous art galleries, festive vibes and great mild weather almost year-round. Being one of the most popular destinations for tourists of all ages, Barcelona is also extremely in demand for young adults and young professionals thanks to is vibrant night scene - hundreds of excellent bars and clubs for every musical taste, world-famous DJs, crowd-attracting parties, not to mention the Sonar and BAM festivals, draw clubbers here from all over the planet. Barcelona is a paradise for young people, also because it is so easy to bring a host of friends here, rent an apartment in Barcelona short-term and enjoy the party every night for very little.
Often young travellers have limited budget, and so vacation rentals in Barcelona can be their first step towards saving significantly: finding an apartment in Barcelona for 5-6 people is really easy, especially if sharing double beds and couches is an option, and the cost of stay in a rental apartment per person per night drops to the cost of a hostel bed, while offering much better living conditions. One or two separate bedrooms, a living room with an extra sofa, one or even two private bathrooms, and of course a fully equipped kitchen may be the best perks of all. Despite many restaurants in Barcelona closing late and bars offering snacks, having some food and drinks at home after coming back from a night out sometimes beats even the best Barcelona restaurants. Cooking at home is another way to save during your trip, as groceries in Spain are inexpensive, yet fresh and of high quality.
Generally, coming to Barcelona on weekends is more expensive than visiting during the week. This disadvantage can actually be quite advantageous to clubbers, since parties happen in Barcelona every night, plus cover fees may be lower and additional discounts on drinks may be offered on weeknights. Neighbourhoods with the most active night scene - GrГ cia, Barri GГІtic, El Born - have plenty of apartment rentals available, so you can stay right next to the action. Most drinking establishments are open from 10 pm to 3 am nightly, and clubs don't turn off their music until 6 am, just like on Fridays and Saturdays. It is also worth to mention that the best dubstep, drum'n'bass, industrial parties take place on Thursdays.
From May to September Barcelona turns into a beach destination as well as a party one, so if you want to experience both, rent an apartment in Barceloneta or in the southern part of Barri GГІtic to be close to the beach, to the best bars of Ciutat Vella, great restaurants and numerous dance clubs of Port OlГmpic. Long-term apartment rent in Barcelona - from one to three months - could be your chance to spend the most unforgettable vacation of your life, with friends, in the beautiful city of Barcelona and the surrounding regions of Catalonia - Costa Brava and Costa Dorada.
