Stayed at Hotel Lyon for 5 nights. When we first arrived we were given a room in the middle of the hotel, much to my shock it hardly had any windows, what window it did have looked out into a dark passage way, hence no daylight at all!! We asked immediately to be moved to another room. The staff were... More

Reception doesnt speak other language rather than Spanish so if you cant speak Spanish you wont be able to... More

Generally speaking, you get what you pay for and overall this hotel was great value for money. Our room was tiny, but had a (also tiny) balcony and was spotlessly clean. Staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfasts were OK - even if we did have to walk 50 meteres to the suister hotel to get them. What was... More

I think many reviewers on here are not used to European hotels, but having stayed in numerous hotels in Europe and around the world, this hotel fit the bill for it's price range in a major European city. The rooms were small, which is typical, but the bathroom was normal size which is not typical. Usually in a hotel of... More

Yes, very small room, no air conditioning (we don't needed in June), noisy reception, noisy during the morning cleanup, elevator not working, etc... But the location is good, near Barceloneta subway station. The staff was not speaking English, but they were kind and helpful. The towels were changed every day.

I booked this hotel as part of a cruise package with Major Cruise.co.uk as part of 50th birthday celebration. When I arrived in Barcelona and checked the paperwork sent by this company I soon found out that they had not bothered to include any postal address or telephone number for the hotel. I even asked a local taxi driver to... More

I have no idea what kind of a person will call this dump A hotel. Smells like a rubbish dump, no Internet, looks like spooky horror movies. I would not stay here even for 5 minutes. I had to leave as soon as I saw the room. HORRIBLE

You have to come back into midnight, if you come later they will leave you on the street because the hotel managers go away for the night. There is no breakfast, you have to go to another hotel and there the breakfast is poor: only ONE brioche!!The hotel is located in... More

I recommend the hotel only because of its central location and pricing.. However the room equipment and surrounding construction sites nearby are overwhelming and noisy.
