Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Zeus boasts a location convenient to the train station and within a walkable distance to the city center. The rooms are often described as clean, and some appreciate features like blackout curtains for restful sleep. While some guests have mentioned the breakfast being served in a separate hotel a few streets away, the location remains a highlight, especially for those arriving by train. The good shower is another plus.
