The place is nice, but it is little more 'than a bed and breakfast: for the prices that are 200 euro per night in Tunisia is ... crazy! When we saw the room that we had thought we had given up and dropped a small room with nothing special, and we asked if we could see another room, we have... More

I am not sure that there is much point in reviewing Tunisian hotels at the moment but thought I should post something anyway. This hotel is in a wonderful position right in the medina of Tunis. It is quiet and comfortable but not luxurious. The staff are generally helpful but they do have some difficulty with English.The rooms are all... More

I stayed in the Dar El Medina on a short trip to Tunis with my wife and two sons (11 & 13). The hotel itself is stunning, a beautiful old building renovated to a high standard. Excellent rooms, clean and spacious, and the bathroom similarly clean with good water supply and fresh toiletries each day. Our rooms shared a courtyard... More

Tunis is not blessed with either large nice hotels or Riad-type alternatives, and the Dar el Medina is unique in the latter category (the competitor is in Sidi Bou Siad, the dar Said which is lovely but out of town although great for seeing sites around Carthage and there is a convenient train line into Tunis). Rooms are all different,... More

Me and my husband spent two nights in this hotel as part of our honeymoon. The hotel is very stylish, with antique furniture and attention to detail. We loved our room, very spacious with loads of character, and all staff have been nice and attentive - our favourite being Raja. Breakfast is lovely too. We arrived in Tunis around mid-day... More

whoever is a bit familiar with traditional mediterranean/moorish architecture knows that old buildings are based on a composition of narrow, high ceiling rooms, organized at various levels revolving around patios and inner courtyard. Those levels are connected by narrow, steep staircases. Henceforth some reasons of complaint by fellow travelers who probably expect something else. One can argue why, while reconverting... More

We arrived at the hotel quite late only to find the receptionist wasn't in a mood to sort us with our room but kept hustling which I assume was as a result of us not been ripped off enough by the taxi driver (paid 13 TND for a ride from the airport (normally should be about 10 TND) + 1... More

The previous reviewers are correct in saying that it's not very easy to find, particulalry if you arrive after dark - may be better to arrange a pickup at the airport with the hotel. having said that, our taxi driver came with us from the square about 5 minutes walk away to make sure we found it. There are lots... More
