Hotel Lyon

Excellent location

Good. Weather is good in Buenos Aires in December.

Very dated rooms, but that's okay. Air conditioning works well, hot water comes eventually, but the elevators are terrible - ended up taking stairs 5 flights up and down, and finally with my luggage. A reasonable breakfast and wifi is good. The local area is a wee bit sketchy so be especially on guard.

The hotel is old, it needed a renovation 20 years ago at least. The floors are damaged, bathroom looks terrible (broken tiles, shower leaves the floor totaly soaked), walls damaged. The bedrooms were old apartments, with a bunch of rooms with old furniture. Pillows are disgusting as well the bedspread. Breakfast is ok, just the basic so you don’t have to look for a place to eat first thing in the morning. Service is ok as well, Argentina is not a place that you will get a good service overall. The hotel is close to Calle Sarniento, but you will have to walk at least 10 blocks to get to the busy area. I don’t recommend, for the same price or a bit more you can get something better and closer to everything.
