This is a very nice hotel. However, we arrived Friday night and the air conditioning was turned off. No staff member was available to come and check on our room until Monday morning which made for a hot and humid weekend.

Average hotel that could easily be better
Positives. The staff were all brilliant. They were helpful, friendly, and efficient. The breakfast buffet was very decent. The overall cleanliness of the hotel was to a high standard. Negatives. It isn't a great location and is at least a 15 to 20 minute walk to the centre. There is very little in the immediate hotel area. The rooms are tired and in need of refurbishment (we were put one room in error, and then moved to our apartment). Both rooms needed attention - broken lightbulbs, broken bracket for the shower hose, no cups or pots in the apartment kitchen etc).

Overall we had great times
The room, location and facility was great.Staff were very helpful (e.g. Stephan). The breakfast selections were limited but reasonable. The only problem that we had was insect bites (probably mosquitoes) as we kept windows open sometimes.

“A true sample of excellent hospitality!”
We had a marvelous stay in Timisoara, Romania at the Boavista Hotel. Wonderful interiors, very good service and some excellent dining too, must recommend the hotel's Vendetta Restaurant for their outstanding service received by Mr. Cosmin for his extraordinary service.

Good overall. Too bad for the smoking policy
I must say straight away that the hotel staff were fantastic throughout our week long stay. They were quick to supply equipment needed for our 6 month old baby and they were very polite the whole time. If you are a smoker this hotel deserves top marks. Unfortunately we are not (and we travelled with our baby) which is why we were upset to find ashtrays in our room despite the specific request (both online when booking and over the phone prior to our arrival) to have a non-smoking room. The excuse we were given was weak: "guests cannot be prevented from smoking". One day we even had the misfortune to have cigarette smoke come through the air conditioning system (that was struggling to begin with). The great location, the awesome service, the overall tidiness and the pretty decent breakfast made it an overall good stay. To the hotel owners I would suggest a couple of improvements: mosquito nets for the windows and "real" non-smoking rooms.

Very comfortable
I like Boavista, I've stayed there many many times. However a couple of times, this one included, there was a LOT of noise at night. I totally understand that they host parties, however in such cases it would be nice to be given rooms as far as possible from the noise ;)

Sehr schönes Hotel. Wir waren schon mehrmals dort. Leider haben sie ein Problem mit dem Reinigungspersonal. So wurde 2 x die Suite nicht gereinigt, obwohl jemand das Zimmer aufsperrte und Nachschau hielt. Die Angestellten an der Rezeption reagierten sehr überrascht. Weiters waren die Damen der Reinigung äußerst unhöflich und unfreundlich.

Szép hotel, gondok a foglalással
English version see below. Maga a hotel nagyon szép, tiszta és modern.Ár/érték arányban jó választás.A parkolás ingyenes.A fürdőszoba és a zuhanykabin nagyon tágas volt, ami pozitívum.A környék szintén nagyon jó,15 perc séta a belváros.Az ágy kényelmes,sok csatorna volt a tévén. Ami negatívum volt, és ezért csak 4 csillag, hogy a wifi egyáltalán nem működött,de ami még nagyobb probléma volt,hogy bejelentkezéskor nem volt a szálloda rendszerében a foglalásunk.A hotels.com kinyomtatott bizonylatával tudtam igazolni a foglalást.Ez bejelentkezéskor viszonylag hamar megoldódott, viszont kijelentkezéskor egy másik recepciós volt ott, aki azt mondta nincs kifizetve a szállás.Legalább 15 perc győzködés és bizonygatás,részéről telefonálgatás után sikerült belátnia, hogy a szállást már előre kifizettem.Ez elég rossz tapasztalalat volt, de ezt leszámítva tudom ajánlani a szállodát! ENGLISH VERSION: The hotel itself is very nice, clean and modern.Value for money.Parking is free.The bathroom and shower were very spacious.The neighborhood is also good, 15 min walk to downtown.The bed was comfortable. What was a negative, that wifi did not work at all, but the bigger problem was that they did not have the booking in their system at check-in.I proved the booking with the printed page from hotels.com.On checkout there was another receptionist who said that we didn't pay for the accommodation.After 15 minutes of convincing,proofing, and telephone calls,he admitted I was right.

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review, for us it is very important to know our guests opinion in our constant struggle to improve our services. Indeed there was a problem with the online bookings but we changed the system and there should be no more situations like the one you experienced. I apologize for the inconvience you had during the check- in procedure. I hope that at your next visit to Timisoara you will be our guest one more time! Hotel Boavista GM

Vernünftiges Haus mit einigen Abstrichen
Hotel ist relativ modern, Zimmer entsprechend ausgestattet; Betten sehr niedrig, nichts für ältere Menschen liegt gleich an Trambahnstation, nach Umsteigen in Bus gelangt man in Innenstadt Personal recht unorganisiert, keine Führung, z.B. war niemand so recht zuständig, das Frühstücksbüfett am 2. Morgen aufzufüllen (es fehlten Milch, Brötchen, Saft, Kaffee...), Büfettauswahl grundsätzlich ausreichend (wenn denn aufgefüllt wird!) Mitarbeiter stehen viel vor Eingang und rauchen und reden Rezeptionisten recht uninformiert über ÖPNV in Stadt (empfehlen nur Taxi obwohl Tramstation vor Tür liegt!) Preise in Hotel nicht in Landeswährung, sondern nur in Euro! Persönliche Taxibestellung zum Flughafen vom Vortag von Reception "vergessen"

Bei der Ankuft im Hotel war der Mitarbeiter total unprofessionel. Ich hatte eine Luxus-Sweet gebucht und bekamm ein normalen Doppelzimmer. Erst nach 3x Versuchen und nur dass ich auf mein Recht bestannden habe dass ich für diese SWEET bezahlt habe gab man mir dieses Zimmer. daraufhin hatt man 3 tagelang im Zimmer nicht sauber gemacht ! Es war ein schönes schlichtes Apartment und kein Luxus !
