We arrived at Hotel Le Royal Hammamet and gave our driver a tip, he was very pleased. The hotel is Beautiful, well located and clean. Unfortunately there were few guest at the hotel as COVID -19 just started. The staff were very helpful whenever you need them, the food was delicious. As someone who appreciate food, the staff would always encourage us to taste the different dishes. The hotel has everything from beauty spa to swimming pools located around the hotels (Indoors and Outdoors). I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great time. I would also encourage travellers to explore Tunisia by taking the local buses and eating at the local restaurants. The Excursion trip wasn't great as it didn't meet our expectations. Tunisia is a safe and peaceful country and will visit again.
By the end of the holiday we were so glad to have chosen this hotel. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Most of them speak English and French. Shops are not far at all. So is the nearby Marina (where you can hire bicycles).
This hotel seems to be well known by taxi drivers. So we had no trouble going off on Day trips and coming back by taxi. We left the hotel by the side gate, the attendant found taxis for us from the side road, we never waited too long. Taxi metered fares are unjustifiably cheap, we were aware of this issue hence we always gave tips. Apart from the airport transfer. We booked with hoppa and were very satisfied with their services and fares.
Breakfast and dinner were brilliant, plenty of fresh fruit and salads, variety of dishes, traditional north African dishes as well as international cuisine.
What is nice about this hotel, is that you can see the people working there are well looked after. Also I was impressed with the presence of women employees at the reception area, at the dinning area, at the gardens…etc.
Do not be surprised if the owner of the hotel (speaks excellent English) walks into the dinning area in order to greet you personally. Such is the individual attention we encountered in this hotel. Beautiful décor luxurious surroundings and a fine sandy beach. We had superior room overlooking the swimming pool. If you are an early sleeper or likes a quite room please state this when you book.
The hotel has a good size gym, as well as an indoor pool as well as four outdoor swimming pools. It also has its own fruit orchard and herb garden.
The Hotel receptionist Abdul Karim, booked us on a Sahara trip to the south of Tunisia, this was an excellent trip by coach with an overnight stay at a 4 star hotel. It exceeded our expectations.
I would like to thank Reem, who kept our room clean and tidy. We chose not to have our room cleaned every day, as it was not necessary. We also like to thank the very jolly Mohamed Ali who looked after us in the dining area and suggested day trips to us.
Will we be back, YES, without hesitation.
- friendly staff at the reception who will recommend you a room, and if you want them to change the room, you can visit the other available rooms with them and choose the one that suits you
- in the reception there is also a currency exchange, the exchange rate is the same as in the city
- the hotel hall is huge with beautiful leather furniture
- the food is excellent. I have read complaints that the food is the same every day, of course it is the same because at least 30 different dishes are served every day. I would especially like to point out the phenomenal fish and the large selection of cakes, and of course the sladed
- standard rooms are comfortable 30m2, with huge terraces and a separate toilet and bathroom, the bed is comfortable and the bed linen is regularly cleaned and changed
- valuable things: mobile phone, wallet, money we never locked up. They were either on a chair or in drawers, but no one touched them. We did not use the safe in the room
- within the complex there are several swimming pools and restaurants where you can enjoy juices, cocktails, beer... as well as pancakes after 15:00 all day long
- the animators are always there so you don't get bored, and I can't forget to mention the animator Paulo who was always there, organized the water polo games
- the beach is wide, sandy, uncrowded, beautiful
- the sea is warm and clear, but it had grass and some jellyfish, which would be the only bad impression from this trip
- the medina in the city is 2 km from the hotel, and the medina in Hammamet is 12 km from the hotel and it is best to go by taxi, the price of a taxi is about 6 euros one way
- I was particularly impressed by Tunisians, ordinary people, always smiling and ready to dance
I recommend the hotel to anyone who wants to rest and not think about anything
The second BIG issue is that my husband and I chose to eat dinner at the buffet on our second night there. Thankfully, we had already made two trips to the buffet and were starting to feel as though we'd eaten enough. A local family came into the restaurant. They had 4 young children who were allowed to run absolutely wild throughout the restaurant while the parents looked on and did nothing. The worst part was that one of the children had an absolutely horrible sounding cough. He coughed continuously ... not just every once in a while, but absolutely non-stop. He was just tall enough so that his face was level with all the food on the buffet. While the restaurant manager and a waiter stood there and watched, this child was allowed to repeatedly walk by ALL the food stations, while facing them, and coughed and sneezed repeatedly all over everything. This happened multiple times and it was absolutely disgusting. The manager was even confronted by another person who was eating there who demanded that he do something about it and yet he did nothing and didn't say anything to the worthless parents. I can't stress enough how disgusting this was! This child literally was spewing spit and germs and all over the food! I feel very sorry for anyone who came in to eat after us. Needless to say, we did not make another trip to the buffet for dessert. Naturally, the next day, my husband started to come down with a bad cold. I have never seen anyone at a buffet so blatantly contaminating food like that. I realize it was a child but the fact that the parents did nothing and the staff saw what was happening and allowed it to continue really angers me. I would never recommend this hotel for this reason unless they replace their staff with people who actually care about hygiene and the health and safety of their guests.
The following morning before attending for breakfast I spoke to the receptionist again ref what had been discussed the night before however due to this being a different staff member they were unaware of the request and stated they would get me a price and would be sorted.
The breakfast was fine and well buffet style and we made our way to the pool and after a period of time I returned to the reception and again they seemed or acted unaware of my requests. I wasn't quite sure what was occuring and we decided we shall leave it. The television in the room stopped working and we made mention of this to a cleaner/staff member and they indicated they would get someone to look at it. This didn't happen.
We attended the vending meal and we sat down with our food which there was a good variety of and cooked well. The waiter arrived and asked what we would like to drink and I stated a bottle of water and a cola. He walked away and then returned staying we had to pay. I told him this was fine and I was aware. As we continued our meal he returned stating the cost of the drinks to us as if to remind we had to pay. This all felt like somehow we had conned our way in and we're looking to defraud them for a sum of 14dinnas. We then left leaving the money on the table.
This wasn't a one off this occured for the nights that we were present. On one occasion I had got up of the table to get a sweet when I was approached from the rear and asked if I had paid.
We came to Tunisia as it is a Muslim country and as a Muslim when you have guests they are treated with respect love and there wellbeing is paramount a lot of time above your own.
At this hotel unfortunately we didn't feel that at all. We felt like imposters after the first day and I have to say it's rare I criticise an establishment as a "person" can have an off day however this seemed to be present throughout and left us with this feeling. The only time I felt like a guest was when I asked for the transport to leave the hotel and the third/forth receptionist duly told us he would sort this out and he did promptly with a smile. I think this says it all that they are most happiest and helpful when in the process of leaving.
All the above is so unfortunate as it really left us feeling a little sad as the location and hotel and amenities are good however the service and staff unfortunately do not match.
The soa is positively dreamy, the gym never too busy to give you the time you want.
The staff are friendly and nothing is too much for them to make you happy.
Its safe for children wot run around with a nightly entertainment program for them.
The gardens are tranquil and gorgeous, cascading down to a clean tranquil beach of crystal clear waters that is warm enough to swim in at this time of year when sunny.
The food was exceptional, with show-cooking available, and extensive buffet of european and Tunisian dishes, and the New Years Eve party menu was world class.
The environment was very family friendly and the hotel deco was very exotic and beautiful especially the outside pool area and the garden pathways. There was 5 pools in total with one indoor which was really nice, as I went off season there wasn’t many people so it was pretty empty anyways. The breakfast buffet and dinner was really good as well and the waiters and the the service staff were very friendly and welcoming.
Moving to the negative points, we were shocked to find out that we had to pay for water at the hotel at dinner and in our rooms. We had to purchase water from the hotel bar or from the dining area for 6 Dirhams (around £2) every time and we’re note permitted to bring water from outside either. Considering this is a 5 start hotel, water is a necessity which should have been provided everyday free of charge. Also, there was no facilities for tea or coffee in our rooms or anywhere else through out the day, this also had to be purchased from the bar which was ridiculous! The worst part was that there was no Wi-Fi in our room at all, we had to go to the lobby to use the Wi-Fi and this was not convent at as I had to attend some remote work meetings and the lobby was not a suitable area for this. We informed the reception about this on the first day and they said their technician will come fix the issue, we reported to reception for 3 days and were informed the same thing and then ended up giving up. The bathroom facility in our rooms was also strange as there was a separate cubicle with a toilet but there was no bidet, considering it is a Muslim country this was expected. Further the sink in the toilet only had boiling water and the tap didn’t turn to the cooler side, the water was so hot that my little sister got a mild burn on her hand the first time she used it. We also reported this to the reception but they didn’t send anyone to fix the issue. Other issues included requesting bathroom slippers and extra blankets which took 2 days for the hotel to provide. One of the other major issues was the card to access our rooms didn’t work majority of the time, we kept having to go back to reception to get another card which was very inconvenient as our block was 10mins away from the reception building.
Overall we had a good time however, the hotel was not the same 5 star standard in other countries we visited such as Turkey and Morocco. If we were to go back to Tunisia then we would rather try another hotel than returning here.
I hope this detailed review helps other travellers decide.
From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the warm and approachable staff who made us feel right at home. Every member of the team—from the chambermaids to the catering staff, the animation team, and the reception staff—was genuinely helpful and attentive, ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible. A special mention to Mr. Dia, Kerim, Hussain, and Khalil for their outstanding hospitality!
The hotel itself is stunning, featuring classy wood-paneled rooms with breathtaking views of the amazing pool and the sea from our balcony. The large open-plan lobby, with its beautiful fountain, serves as a lovely central gathering place. The hotel embraces Islamic design and architecture throughout, adding to its charm and elegance.
We were thrilled with the fantastic facilities available, including an indoor pool and spa area, a gym, and two outdoor pools that our kids absolutely loved! The weather was amazing, temperature ranged from 30-36 degrees, perfect!
The private beach was clean and inviting and well-equipped with plenty of straw umbrellas and sunbeds, making it the perfect spot for relaxation. We also had a blast with Base Nautique 25, the water sports company situated right on the beach, where we tried jet skiing and parasailing. The safety provided by the team was paramount, especially when our kids were out on the open water.
The hotel’s animation team worked tirelessly throughout the day and night, organising fun activities like water yoga, water polo, table tennis, and darts. The evenings were equally enjoyable, with live musical performances that added to the vibrant atmosphere.
Dining at Le Royal was a delightful experience, with a variety of restaurants and bars on-site. We particularly loved the breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffet served in the spacious dining area. Don’t miss out on the fresh crepes made right before your eyes—they were a hit with everyone!
For those looking to explore the area, the Medina and marina of Yasmine Hammamet is a must-visit, especially during the busy season when it buzzes with tourists. We enjoyed browsing through the souvenir shops and discovering a range of skincare cosmetics made from local ingredients like aloe vera, pickled pear, olive and argan.
In summary, I cannot recommend Le Royal Hotel Hammamet enough. Our family had the most relaxing and enjoyable time.
Thank you once again to the entire team for making our stay so special.
