“Zeus Essence occupies a prime spot on a main Bucharest boulevard, just a short walk to the Old Town. It strikes me as a solid choice for those wanting to be central, especially given the comfortable, modern rooms. Though some have mentioned street noise, the friendly staff and varied breakfast make it a worthwhile consideration.”
