Excellent Hotel in Great Location in Barcelona
Pros:

Can’t speak highly enough of this hotel! Great central location in walking distance of many attractions. Excellent service and real hospitality, lovely rooms and great breakfast buffet with fresh items cooked on demand also. The cookie making ingredients were a thoughtful touch for our 11 year old niece at breakfast time. Would definitely stay again.

Pros:

Mevkii olarak muhteşem bir yerde. Dışarı çıktığınızda şehrin ilk genişleme bölgesi olan tarihi binaların arasında kendinizi buluyorsunuz. Kesinlikle aile dostu bir işletme. Kahvaltı alanında küçüklere ayrılmış bir alan bile var. Sabah kahvaltısında sürpriz bir şekilde çocuklar için kurabiye şekillendirme etkinliği yapıldı. Pişirilen kurabiyeleri bir kraft poşet ile kızıma verdiler ve yedik.

Cons:

İki asansör olmasına rağmen asansör için biraz beklememiz gerekti.

Lovely hotel
Pros:

Located downtown, close to a metro station, I was in town for the Mobile World Congress event. Although it takes ~40 mins with the metro to reach Fira de Barcelona where the MWC event was taking place, it was a reliable and straight forward transfer.

And with a great selection of restaurants & bars in the area, I much prefer to stay at the Podium, than Fira de Barcelona :-).

The staff were very friendly, welcoming and check in was quick.

The room was large, fresh and spotless clean. The Wifi worked well and room was well equipped with tea/coffee facilities, something as a seasoned traveler I really appreciate.

Breakfast was a buffet, with a selection of mostly cold dishes (fruit, yogurt, cheese, deli meats, juice, coffee, bread, some Spanish specialties etc.) and a couple of hot dishes like scrambled eggs & sausages. The food was good and you could also order some extra hot dishes, like fried eggs & bacon.

The hotel has a gym & swimming pool. Unfortunately I did not have time to sample them, but they looked good :-).

Overall a great stay and highly recommended.

Very good experience
Pros:

Very good experience at NH Podium. All the staff was very friendly and efficient. We must mention that Pau, a member of the hotel staff, helped us a lot to find a taxi when we were already late for an appointment, and even ran on the street to get a taxi that was passing by. Thanks a lot.

The best choice for our trip.
Pros:

Exceptional breakfast, the best we've experienced. Staff were very friendly and helpful at all times. The room was big and spacious. The location was absolutely perfect, especially for a short trip, because you are close to everything.

Cons:

Nothing negative to be honest. If I absolutely have to write something though I would say the elevators were a bit small and old, but it was ok.

Travel with kids
Pros:

We spent four wonderful days in Barcelona and were completely satisfied with everything at the hotel. The staff were very friendly and especially very kind and attentive to the children. The rooms and the other areas of the were clean with daily cleaning and towel changes. The food in the restaurant was delicious. The hotel is in a great location, with all attractions easily and quickly accessible on foot or by public transport. We had a wonderful time and I'm sure we'll be back.
