With\u00a0<strong>ShBarcelona<\/strong> you can find a variety of reasonably priced apartments in\u00a0perfect locations, spread all around the city.<b> <\/b>This way, you don\u2019t have to go\u00a0out for meals or spend more money in the hotel by having your meals there. You can go for one or two <strong>special dinners<\/strong> out, but the rest of the time you can simply cook at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/buy-apartment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">apartment<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related article: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/romantic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Most Romantic Restaurants in Barcelona<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Going_out_for_a_meal\"><\/span>Going out for a meal<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The choice of where to have those special <strong>romantic meals<\/strong>\u00a0in Barcelona can be hard, due to the number of excellent restaurants available in the city. However, one of the best things to do\u00a0is to dine at the top of the mountains overlooking the city lights. It can be a truly beautiful and romantic experience. Most people will go up to <strong>Miramar<\/strong>, near <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.pt\/maps\/place\/Mirador+del+Poble+Sec\/@41.3717996,2.1697046,17z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x12a4a25ada56663b:0xf00fae11f5140e0!8m2!3d41.3717996!4d2.1718933\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Mirador del Poble Sec<\/a><\/strong>. Most\u00a0restaurants there offer great views over the city, but they are a bit on the pricey side.

Not only is it a fun trip, but a return ticket is merely a couple of euros. Once you are there, choose from one of the\u00a0<strong>cheap local restaurants<\/strong> that are overlooking the entire city. You can see all of Barcelona and even the Mediterranean sea from up there.
