Air bnb vs hotel in Barcelona for multi-generational family of 13

Hello, we are a multigenerational family of 13 looking for accommodations in Barcelona at the end of August for 3 days before our cruise out of the port in Barcelona. My parents who are in their early 70's will be with us & there will be 5 children ranging in age from 5-10 yrs old & an infant who will be 6 months at that time. We are looking to do a tour of Barcelona for the time we are there & I am wondering whether it would be better to rent out an entire apartment in Barcelona through Airbnb or to book 4 hotel rooms. Also, most importantly I am looking for recommendations on what part of Barcelona would be best for us to stay since we are not familiar with the area at all. Thank you so much!!!

I recommend the Eixample neighborhood for you and your extended family members. Perhaps you could find several apartments in the same building. Look at Habitat Apartments and Hispanos 7 Suizas(aparthotel) if you can’t find several AirBnBs together.
