Barcelona: lodging group of schoolchildren - 07/31/12 03:58 PM

Anybody have a suggestion of the best way/where to find accomodation for group of schoolchildren aged 15-16 with adult teachers/parents in Barcelona?
The group of about 40 persons will of course have to stay in the same or neighbouring facilities. Youth hostel(s) was my first thought. They want to be in walking distance of the Old City as well as the beach, so the area La Ribera/Barceloneta is a good option?
