Was a little dubious about going to Tunisia as i had heard not particularly good things- what a pleasant surprise- arrived early hours so didn t really see much until the morning. Beautiful surroundings and Hotel - The hotel and staff were fantastic- staff couldn t do enough for you- Only 23 English in the hotel but wasn t too... more

On arrival the hotel is splendid, the entrance and reception is marble lined with fretwork , squashy leather sofas and smartly dressed staff. Problem start when you scratch below the veneer. We had a series of faults in our room-safe was broken, light bulbs intermittent, shower plug broken -the final straw being when our door handle broke, leaving us locked... more

This hotel was as it says, a Palace. The decor was superb, the staff very friendly and a rep on hand 24hrs a day (thanks Jimal). I was however not well for 3 days....not the food....just lack of water....silly me!!! Yes it is Africa after all. The food was what I expected, good selection of Tunisian cooking. If you are... more

This was an excellant hotel for sand sea and sun. The people at the hotel were very friendly, even though they did not speak good english I was always understood. Overall we had a good holiday but my only problem was very few English guests,mainly German, itallians and French,so it could be very lonely at times. Used taxis to get... more

Went to this hotel last summer, worst holiday i have ever been on would not recommend. The food was awful, the staff was rude and hardly spoke English, and there was very little to do. Not a good selection of alcohol, do not order wine!! Waiters expected tips for their poor service. often got harassed by men on the beach... more

I have just returned from a 2 week holiday in the resort of Mahdia in Tunisia. Me and my mum booked this as a last minute holiday staying on a half board basis (breakfast and evening meal). This resort is best for older people and those wanting to relax. The resort is very isolated,so you would be expected to stay... more

We had studied other reviews of this hotel & weren't expecting fantastic service & we certainly didn't get it. On arrival we were met by the duty manger demanding (in the little English he spoke) our orange booking slips, after a brief argument we made him understand that we were not part of the Italian party just arrived & were... more

Stayed there for our first wedding anniversary and was expecting a good 4/5* hotel. It isn't, the resteraunt is OK but you have to be picky, theres a lovely A la Carte resteraunt but thats at an additional cost if your half board. The staff are not as multilingual (Engish) as you'd expect or hope and they will not go... more

The Mahdia Palace is a lovey 5 Star hotel. I loved the impressive wooden staircase and domed ceiling, but hated the restaurant! As a single traveller I was very content at this hotel. The pool area is lovely and spacious, the pool being lovely and big and as I'm not a fan of children, I found there was plenty of... more
