Ive been to Tunisia before and the hotels do all have a dated theme. This is accompanied by them being in poor condition. By this i mean stained walls, damaged items, weird smells, unclean surfaces but I'll ignore this for the puporses of the review.
Good points
- Cleaners are polite and proficient
- alot of food options (although most is mediocre at best)
- good proximity to beach and a good sized pool.
Bad points
- Location isnt great, there isnt a whole lot to do there, I'd suggest staying by old town for a more enjoyable experience.
- Day reception staff are incredibly rude, they are blunt and almost standoff ish which doesnt make you feel safe since this essentially becomes your home for a few days, i found this to be the case specificially with Houssem and Whaled.
- day reception staff will also take advantage of you when you try and book anything through them. For context i asked Whaled about getting a private transfer to Tunis. Id researched enough to know a fair price which was about 220 TND. He quoted me 380 and when I barter he was rude and quite literally walked off. I managed to arrange it myself outside the hotel for 240 TND with a private car (not a taxi).
Also just for reference for anyone else reading this, if you want to go to Tunis, take either a coach which is 8TND or a lounge which is about 4TND. You can get this from Minerat hamamet. A taxi to there from hotel shouldnt be more than 12TND.
Hamamet old town this shouldnt be more than 10TND from hotel
