Hi there!
I'd say your chances of finding a position as a recepcionist in some company are pretty good, that's if you are a member of the EU of course. However, it's virtually impossible to get a job at some hotel/hostel/etc.... reception if you don't have a degree in Tourism Management. Sorry!
I'm also a receptionist, I FINALLY quit my previous job about 10 days ago, went to the unemployement office, so I could receive my unemployement benefits('el paro') in a couple of months while I job-hunted, but through them I started to work at a new place last wednesday already! so the system works sometimes! And I thought I would enjoy a short break in-between jobs! The best part is that my office now is at 5 minutes walking distance from my house!!!, on cl Ventura de la Vega(Santa Ana area), which means there are a lot of chances to go have some after work drinks with the colleagues, specially on Fridays when most everybody leaves at 15:00 hrs. (There are a lot of Swedes in the company and they love that!)
Anyway, I wanted to recommend a great place to start your search:
http://empleo.paginasamarillas.es Yes, it's the yellow pages!, but for some reason they have a jobsearching on-line service which to me works very well.
ĦĦBUENA SUERTE!!
