Best Hotels near Biblioteca Centrală Universitară Eugen Todoran, Timisoara

Excellent hotel - friendly staff, superb breakfast with delicious choices and great coffee. Ten to 15 minute walk to Piata Unirii - felt very safe at night walking thru a residential neighborhood. Contemporary design and extremely quiet - beds very comfortable! Stayed three nights and best sleep entire three week trip in Romania.

I have chosen Mercure Timisoara and it was the best decision because this place really gave me the perfect accommodation experience. The hotel is perfectly located in a quiet area close to the city center and from the 4th floor (where my room was located) it offers a great view. The room was astonishing: spacious, modern design, all amenities needed and a large comfortable bed for an excellent sleep. On top of that, the technology inside the room was amazing because everything is digitally controlled using a tablet. I enjoyed the delicious breakfast that offered a lot of choices and all of them were great. There is an outstanding restaurant inside the hotel where I had both lunch and dinner and I can easily say I had a real international dining experience because the menu includes dishes from all over the world. Special thanks from my side to Mr. Florin Cojocaru (the hotel’s general manager) for his great hospitality, friendly attitude and willingness to help me with anything needed in order to have the perfect stay at the hotel. I highly appreciated that the management is really focused on creating the highest standards, so the guests can have the best experience during their stay at this hotel. Thanks to Mr. Cojocaru and his amazing team I had a wonderful accommodation experience.

We stayed at this hotel with a tour group and it was generally, quite satisfactory. It was situated about 1 km from the centre of the city and away from the crowds and thus, was conveniently located. The walk to the city centre was an easy and flat one. While the hotel did back onto a railway line and our room faced that direction, our sleep wasn't disturbed. Rooms were comfortable but not huge. The one glaring drawback was that the breakfast area really wasn't big enough to cope with the number of guests, with queues forming for everything. In fact, the area was like a pop up breakfast room, with things stored in cupboards around the room. Breakfast itself was average. There is plenty of parking for guests.

We spent two nights at the Hotel Reghina Blue. We have some very positive comments about some features and enjoyed our stay, but it could easily have been made much better. The hotel is situated further than we anticipated from the city centre. It is a good half hour's walk to Victory Square. We discovered later that there is a useful tram line (no 6) but there was no information about this at the hotel. There is free parking in front of the hotel and in a car park at the side. The hotel is modern and is decorated with interesting old photos of Timisoara buildings of the past. Our room was large with plenty of space for our luggage. It was clean and stylish. The bed was a little firmer than I like. The bedside lamps did not direct light to the bed and so it was not possible to read in bed, and it was necessary to get out of bed to turn them on and off. Otherwise it was a pleasant and comfortable room. The bathroom was fine and the shower worked well. Wifi was free and the signal was strong. On our first night we dined in the hotel. We had only just arrived in Romania and did not have any local currency and so thought it would be easiest. We had a very decent meal. The atmosphere was somewhat lacking as we were almost the only people there, but the hotel could not do anything about that. Breakfast was included in the price and was a self-service buffet. Some of it was very good: cold meat and cheese, bread, cakes and fruit. The hot offering was less appealling. It looked as if the fried eggs had been on display since the restaurant opened at 7am and were still there an hour later. The sausages, too, were lukewarm. If these items had not been present I would have thought it an excellent breakfast. The staff could have been more helpful. Only the breakfast waiter made an effort to be welcoming to guests. We found on our first evening that the safe in our room was not working. Perhaps it needed new batteries. We told the receptionist who came to have a look. She was not able to solve the problem herself and said she would get someone to come and deal with it the next day, but this never happened. We were given a map of the city which was very useful but we were given incorrect information when we asked about changing money and buying a ”vignette” to allow us to drive in Romania. We were directed to a bank along the road but this was closed and looked as if it had closed down a long time previously. Fortunately a very helpful lady in the travel office next door helped us to buy a vignette online and directed us to a nearby exchange office. The staff in the hotel really should have done this. They could also have told us about the tram mentioned earlier in this review. We only found out about it when we went to the tourist information office in the centre of the city. There was a pleasant courtyard garden and an outdoor swimming pool which we would have enjoyed if we had visited in the summer.

We booked a room in the hotel for an overnight stay as we were traveling to our final destination in the south of Romania. The hotel room was clean and quite big. Though we arrived after 11 PM we found hot water to have a shower for both myself and my partner ( it's always annoying when arriving in a hotel and there is no how water). We found also a parking place right next to the hotel even if we arrived late. Another advantage for us was that the hotel has 24/7 reception as anybody who needs to cross the border knows that you can never estimate that time. They have also the possibility to have breakfast in the morning which is not included in the hotel price. The offer for the breakfast was quite good ranging from eggs to different types of cheese and hams and so on. Overall if you want to eat well in the morning the breakfast they are offering is a good variety. The hotel is not centrally located so maybe I wouldn't recommend it to somebody who wants to visit Timisoara ( unless they want to take the car and drive) but for us as a stop along our way the location was perfect - close to the highway and the gas station and easy to get in an out of the cities outskirts.

I was only for one night to sleep and breakfast there, but it was all fine. The parking is large, safe and for free, the friendly receptionist has waited extra for me although the check was late. The hotel is close to the center and is still quietly located around the corner there is a tanker and a McDonalds. Breakfast was very good, even Moussaka there was! I can actually not criticize anything, it was for the price everything as hoped!
