I am so glad I chose this business hotel connected to the convention center, with non-smoking rooms and lobby that smelled fresh. (Thank you!) It wasn't "perfect" in that I could occasionally hear guests in another room and also, I felt a spring poking through one bed so slept in the other, which was fine. Nonetheless, it was CLEAN, spacious, staff was polite and friendly with terrific English, and most importantly, the hotel was in a primo tourist location, smack at the edge of a lively town square with shops, buskers, and tourists mingling around day and evening. Lights strung across the pedestrian streets lead to an even cuter town square (which didn't seem to have a hotel). Evening strolls in this downtown area are exceptionally pleasant, with families out playing, people chatting at cafes, music in the air, and customers lined up for gelato. Outside of the old town, the Iulius Town Mall is a nice area, but aside from that, there are many places left behind - crumbling from the Soviet era - especially over by the North train station which is now undergoing renovation. So aim for the plazas in the center when making your vacation plans. IMO, after looking around, this is one of the best places to stay in Timisoara.
