Hotel Castel Royal

I debated whether to give this three stars, not four, but ultimately it was a comfortable night in a hotel that's in great condition, for a very fair price. Bed was comfortable and the furniture in genuine solid wood. Good though not spectacular beer and food from the brewery/restaurant attached. However: it's several miles out of Timisoara - not a problem, but the location just feels a bit awkward - lots of space, and not many people when we were around. A weird, slightly bombastic 'castle' theme. We weren't quite sure whether this place wanted to be a family 'theme' hotel or a business hotel. So all in all, fine for a night's stay - just be aware what you're letting yourself in for.
