Got a single room at a good price, half what you'd pay in Seville. In a good location opposite the bullring. No noise, despite being on main road. However, the double bed made the room cramped. Bedside table prevented the sock drawer below the wardrobe from opening. Bathroom also cramped. No shelf for toiletries etc. Staff helpful, but told that there was no bus to the bus station and given info on taxi's. Wrong! Bus D stops at rear of hotel and goes right to bus station every half h. Fare 90c.

No Restaurant. No Bar. No Air conditioning.

This hotel did not have the following features that the Hotels.com website said it had:- No Restaurant. No Bar. No Air conditioning. There was no lift from reception level. You have to carry your luggage up 2 flights of stairs and down another to use the lift starting on the 1st floor. No way is this a 3-star hotel. I had to prepay for my room so I couldn’t leave to find another hotel. This was misrepresented on Hotels.com and I feel I should get a refund for this reason.

Very noisy surroundings

Nice Hotel, but what a noisy neighbourhood. A concert stand nearby at 22:30 and didn’t finish till after 0200. Then motorbikes and lots of load shouting people in the park under our balcony. Didn’t get much sleep. It’s a shame as otherwise the hotel was perfectly ok.

A good HQ for conquering Roman Merida

Hotel Zeus is just across the road from Merida's sprawling and improved Roman archaeological park and museums. It also had ample free parking on-site. Although its restaurant next door was not yet open for 'the season,' I found a very good one a few minutes' walk down the street. The concierge spoke English and gave very helpful advice touring Spain's best-preserved Roman town, which requires at least 2 days to do it justice; so I had to stay on for another night! All in all, a fine value for the money.

The hotel is cheap. good price if you are just looking for a place to sleep and not spend a bunch of money. But, you get what you pay for. The pillows are not very nice and the sheets and blankets were not the best. Definitely old and used… but clean. The old town of Mèrida is walking distance to the hotel, but the surrounding area is not that nice of an area. Overall, I would stay there again simply for the price, but not a place I would recommend if you want a super nice place.

Classic tourist hotel near main sites

The hotel is a little dated and faded but its clean and everything works , in a good spot for a short walk to the Roman sights and easy to find. Breakfast was simple but enough for us. Its on a large main road but no noise if you have the windows closed, you need to cross this road to get to the sights but thats fine if you used the crossing points. Staff were pleasant if you approached them , we were not able to use the pool as it was closed as it was October, which was a shame as it was pretty warm. As others has mentioned one odd thing was the steep marble staircase leading up to the lift , odd ! The roman sites are definately worth making a detour to visit and im glad we did, the hotel served its purpose.

Driving through Spain by car?

We used Zeus as a cheap overnight stay on a drive from Bilbao to Gibraltar being over half way and conveniently close to the main road through, very helpful staff, and clean, close to town(10mins walk) and good parking, fuel station close by. Excellent value for money and recommended!

Car parking is a plus

The best thing about this hotel was that it had a car park & was within walking distance of the ruins & square. Strange arrangement with steps before you reach the lift. Therefore you were lifting cases up & down stairs. Average rooms, average breakfast, ok for the price
