Barcelona, Catalunya, Spain
This apartment is located in the beautiful neighborhood of Sant Antoni, which is a trendy area in the center of Barcelona. You will be located near the Sant Antoni market, which offers some of the best typical sea dishes from Catalonia in a charming area close to the University, Barcelona Fira and Montjuic Parks. The area is well-connected to the city center via public transport and, though you are close to the center of the city, the area has its own distinctive and unique charm. All the new trends in Barcelona such as the gin and tonic culture, the DIY hamburger, brunch, and vermouth have now materialized in Sant Antoni. Street art here is also part of the culture and there are plenty of amazing graffiti murals to view as you wander around the streets. For film buffs, the Renoir Floridablanca Cinema is a must-visit, where a wide selection of movies from all around the world is shown in their original languages on seven screens. Inaugurated in 2009, the Jardins De Candida Perez are beautiful shaded gardens that serve as an oasis from the bustling heart of the city.

When it comes to finding a great place to eat out, a must-visit is Federal Café, one of the best spots for brunch in Barcelona. The place has an amazing terrace on top where you can spend lovely summer evenings. Be sure to try the poché eggs. There are often long queues to get into Sirvent because of its reputation for serving the best orxata in Barcelona (orxata being a traditional Valencian drink with tiger nuts). For tapas, head to Els Sortidors del Parlament which mixes a modern hip vibe with the feel of an old bodega. The tapas menu is excellent and the quality of the food makes it very popular amongst both locals and tourists.

For a sophisticated drink, head to Bar Calders, which was named after the exiled 20th-century writer Pere Calders. Here, you can try some delicious homemade vermouth! Also in the area is The Moritz Factory, with a bar attached to the brewery where the famous Moritz beer is made. Sip special editions of the iconic brew or choose form 400 labels of wine in their trendy bar. For a fun atmosphere try Bar Ramon, with its unashamed Rock ’n’ Roll vibe. A genuine Bo Diddley guitar hangs on the wall and blues music is played all day. Finally, Bitter Cocktail Bar was opened in 2015 and is widely regarded as one of the very best cocktail bars in Barcelona and well worth a visit.
