Hotel Lyon is close to everything: Metro stations, local bus stops, the Congress area, and downtown landmarks. If you prefer to walk a little bit, you can just walk to the downtown area including Plaza de Mayo and the famous monument. Most of all, the staff is helpful and Hotel Lyon provides a free nice breakfast. I'd stay at Hotel Lyon again should I visit Buenos Aires one day again.

Convenient to a lot of things. If you’re looking for a place to sleep, take a shower and head out in the morning, this isn’t a bad place for the price. The room was very dated but very clean. The bathroom smelled a bit so I bought a room freshener. My a.c. Sounded like someone dragging cardboard boxes down a concrete sidewalk but I had earplugs. Breakfast was included. I stuck to coffee and drinkable yogurt. The rest was cheap carbohydrates(cheap white bread, day old rolls, cheap colored cereal). Would I stay again? If the price were right.

Worst Hotel to stay in Buenos Aires

This hotel is the worst I ever stayed in .The basic things that are needed to make the guest comfortable are missing . The staff does not make any efforts at all to solve problems that you as a guest may have . The ceiling in the bathroom full of mold . The wall paper falling off the walls . The curtains full of holes . The sheets on the bed and the pillows are so disgusting . No shower curtain so after each shower the floor flooded with water . Breakfast that is offered the worst ever. If I could rate this hotel -10 I would !!!! Worst ever !!! Please spent your money on much better hotels nearby .
