Is this the best view from a hotel room in Barcelona?

From this 16th-floor deluxe sea-view room at the Hotel Arts Barcelona, Frank Gehry's monumental fish sculpture, 56 metres long and 35 metres high, appears to be leaping into the ocean, especially when the sun hits the interwoven stainless-steel strips that form its scales. Built right on the waterfront as part of the Olympic Village constructed for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, the sculpture marked Gehry's first foray into computer-aided design. The hotel's lush garden terraces lie in the shadow of the sculpture; just out of shot to the left is the hotel's outdoor pool and beyond that, the Port Olimpic. To the right is Barceloneta, one of the city's most vibrant neighbourhoods, built in the 18th century to rehouse those displaced by the building of a new fortress (La Ciutadella, now a park) by King Philip V of Spain. Barceloneta also has one of the best beaches in the city.
