Guest Reviews
- Katelyn (10/5): - Overall a wonderful stay. The sea view room was stunning and everything was very clean.
- Matthias (10/5): - Unglaublich freundliche Mitarbeiter und Besitzer; Unterkunft und Ausstattung nicht mit italienischem Standard zu vergleichen - alles sehr modern und neu - Tolle Betten - sehr schönes Bad Kommen gerne wieder !
- Keith (10/5): - Loved the property
- Xingxu (8/5): - The staff are very kind. They even provided foods for my early breakfast to catch my flight next day morning.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - there is no reception after 21:00 every night. I forgot my room key inside the room and had to sleep outside until the morning, as there is no answer ever for emergencies
- Matthias (10/5): - Sehr nettes Personal. Sauber, gute Lage, gutes Gefühl. Frühstück einfach, aber sehr gut. Empfehlung :) Bella Italia.
- Ivan (10/5): - Ottimo hotel
- Antonio (10/5): - Wonderful staff, very comfortable and clean, delicious breakfast offered....overall just a fantastic experience at this small, authentic hotel! Highly recommend the sea view rooms.
- Renata (10/5): - Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit dem Frühstück, so wie auch mit Zimmerausstattung, freundlichen Personal
- Mark (10/5): - Clean, quiet, organized with a moderately well-equipped kitchen. The area was nice and the staff helpful
- Raphaël (8/5): - Ras
- Marcus (8/5): - Zimmer groß und geräumig. Bad etwas abgewohnt und die Klimaanlage ging zu Beginn nicht. Wurde aber sofort behoben. Gardinenstange war defekt daher kam man schlecht auf den Balkon aber trotzdem machbar. Meerblick sehr hübsch aber kein wirklicher „Strand“ (Steinstrand) verfügbar. Dies war uns aber bekannt und nicht schlimm, leider war der kleine Abschnitt mit alten Holz vermüllt und das hat es getrübt. Frühstück war dürftig. Personal sehr nett. Parkplatz vorhanden.
- Alexandra Marie (10/5): - We loved our stay at Zeus! Very clean, safe and wonderful ocean view. Very accommodating for long stays. Highly recommend.
- Scafaro Guecuek, (10/5): - Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Unsere Wünsche wurden immer erfüllt. Leckes Frühstück und saubere Zimmer. Am schönsten war der Blick aufs Meer.
- Nicola (8/5): - Residence pulito,tranquillo e con personale eccellente.
- Michele (10/5): - Posto stupendo
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This property is unique in that it is sunken into the rock face. It offers 2 options; one with a view of ocean and one with an internal courtyard view. Both are pretty, but if you can upgrade to ocean view!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - L'accès direct à la mer,la kitchenette pour se préparer les repas. La propreté des chambres.
- dina2441 (10/5): Family vacation - This family run Hotel overlooking a rocky beach is spectacular. The staff is extremely friendly and always helpful. The rooms are specious and clean. There are restaurants within walking distance to choose from. Definitely recommend it.
- bajluborg (6/5): Little things that count. - I have just returned home from a 4 day holiday in Sicily, from 6th July to the 9th.staying at Zeus Hotel. Both the room and the bathroom were quite big and modern, and perfectly clean. The shower in missing a curtain, and you have to be very careful, as water can easily spill out and create a mess. We also had a big balcony, with 2 chairs and no table, just to put a drink on it. I do not know why they use sofa double beds, which are very uncomfortable to get out of bed and also form a hollow in the middle. We had no view whatsoever from our room(203) We were facing a small central courtyard. Breakfast is very poor even when compared to similar hotels in the region.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Front desk super helpful. really nice restaurant down street. Close to airport one hour taormani and one hour Mt etna
- PesciolinaK (8/5): Great hotel - It was our family trip to Sicily and we booked 3 rooms. Two rooms had a great ocean view and the beautiful sound of the ocean. The whole structure is new. The rooms were clean. Even if you don't have the ocean view from your room there is a common area terrace with a wonderful ocean view. There are no beaches in walking distance but you can possibly get to the water through the rocks from the hotel and swim. Staff were exceptionally kind and efficient so our stay was very comfortable.
- BB (10/5): - Very nice staff, careful to the customers' needs. That is very appreciated. Grazie.
- josephspeedracer (10/5): Nice View - We really loved the view of the room, and the patio. Very relaxing and quiet place. We were also able to get a transport to and from the airport. Overall, I wished we would have stayed here longer. Very relaxing.
- Becaman (10/5): Fantastic Place, Great Staff. Great value! - This place was sparkling new! Rooms were very spacious and well appointed with a mini kitchen too. The bathroom was lovely with a powerful shower. Very clean. The only weird thing is that the only bed option was a sofa bed, it was moderately comfortable. This place certainly is very good value compared to other places in the area. If you want to stay in Aci Castello I’d definitely recommend this place! Staff spoke perfect English. The receptionist (her name was Lou.. something long!.. sorry!) was super friendly with lots of advice about where to visit in Sicily. The aircon in the room broke and we were moved to an upgraded sea view room (which was super!!). Breakfast a nice continental option with boiled eggs and croissants. Etc. Beach not accessible from the hotel, but you can sit on the rocks or patio area and look out to sea. Just up the road (on the other side) is the Sheraton. You can use the outdoor pool and beach access for 15 Euro if you like and buy a ticket for the hop on / hop off bus that will take you to into Catania. (Pay 5 Euro in the hotel and 10 on the bus). Tip: DON’T get a taxi to Aci Castello from the airport - it’s quite far and cost me more than the hotel! 60 Euro!! Unfortunately being a lone woman at night I felt I didn’t want to get the bus on my own. Pre-book your transfer or if in the day, get the bus! Get a sea view room with balcony!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - When there are more people staying at the hotel you end up with a cold shower. It was fine our first few nights until more guests arrived. When they arrived we discovered is has thin walls. Besides that we loved staying here
- MCam51 (10/5): Excellent ,Superb!!! - We were there on a family emergency, the staff could not be more helpful, kind and considerate. The hotel is not overwhelming, very personable,very secure and comfortable, perfect for what we needed. Nice breakfast and beautiful patio area. Convenient kitchen in the room. Was only there one week, we left feeling like family with the staff. Our relatives are still there and are continued to be treated the same. A real gem of a place.
- 557jonnyg (8/5): For what we needed it was perfect - Some friends of mine were travelling from the US for a conference in the hotel next door to Zeus so my wife and I decided last minute to go with them. Everything was booked up in the hotels so we found Zeus. We were only staying a few nights and would be out exploring the towns or up the Beautiful Lady so for somewhere to sleep it was great. We stayed in April (just forgot to review it) and I think we were the first guests to ever stay there. We had the place completely to ourselves and they were still finishing the outdoor communal areas. The breakfast was brought to our room every day as the dining room wasn't finished but the quality of things to eat was really nice and local. From what we could see it was going to be a really nice looking place with high end finishes going in. The room was comfortable, airco, futon bed, black out blinds, kitchen area etc. For a few days with two people its a really nice little self catering. You don't really get sea views except for up on the roof terrace as most of the buildings along the coast are built down and into the rock coast. The area itself is a bit run down and not as friendly as other areas of Italy I have been to. We were there just before tourist season really started and it is a beautiful part of the world but you really have to have a reason to go there. Catania itself is a bit seedy no matter how beautiful mt Etna is. Not many people speak English and my usual attempts at Italian don't go down as well as in other parts. The staff at Zeus were friendly enough and we managed through everything with sign language and easy phrases! If we ever go back to that part of the world we would go back to Zeus to see what its like. Definitely ticks all the boxes for a quick, cheap get away.
- stzelepis (8/5): Good hotel- Bad location - We have a nice stay in hotel Zeus, bad the whole area, as Catania also was very ugly. If you want to stay in Catania, this hotel is decent. But my proposal is to stay away from that city (Catania). Also if you want to eat something at night they don't have cuisine , so you have to fill your fridge the first day with snacks or sandwiches.
- davidbaily65 (10/5): Great!!! - Reccomended by the receptionist of the previous hotel,we really enjoyed our short stay here. Loved the bar and the staff were all superb. Great breakfast too. Walking distance to sea. The room was comfortable,great sea view well appointed with a very nice bath.
