Sousse hotels

Pros: Simply I haven't seen any positive thing to mention here, all what I have is only negative, I hope one day they will understand that tourist should be treated better.

Cons: - Staff are very rough and un professional - Beach towels are always dirty - service sucks - room service are always delayed and they don't change the bedsheets even they are dirty. - checking in takes forever, I was there at 14:15 and been told to wait until 15:00 in reception, however at 15:00 room was still not available - after checked in room was dirty and not equipped for a family, and to bring towels and cups and shower sets took at least extra hour - reception staff are not helpful when you ask for service - parking sucks and you have to walk all the way from ground floor and walk between entered and exit cars as there is no way from parking till reception except through drive way - over priced with such extra poor service. Don't recommend at all.

Pros: well I engoyed every think in Jaz , it was amazing trip with my friend , especialy the covred pool wow :) .. I hope I can reterne there one day

Pros: Super friendly and helpful staff. Recently renovated rooms and facilities. Higher standards than most Tunisian hotels I've been.

Cons: No policy agains people laying towels on seats. People were literally getting up at 5 to take the best seats and then not use them for hours. So don't expect to get the nice spots at the pool. The hotel staff should respond to this and set a limit of time and take towels away if the chairs are not used.

Pros: Top breakfast. Just right to the beach

Cons: The indoor pool open from 10am to 1pm. Makes no sense. No taxi at the property need to walk up to highway. Smells smoke in our room.

Pros: The relaxed environment , the attentiveness of the staff the room THE BED AND PILLOWS and the food is lovely all round amazing

Cons: We love everything...there is no room for complaints really lovely

Pros: Breakfast really good in comparison with the rest of the hotel...

Cons: everything else. Staff not amical at the reception, noise from other rooms as wall too thin,...

Pros: Only breakfast was good rest entire experience was a disaster and the entire staff only look forward to get some extra tips from guests. Do not exchange they do not give paper and cheat there.

Cons: AC was leaking continuously even after complaining 2-3 times Finally I had to shift to other room not only because AC was leaking even the WC was leaking. The entrance is not on the road and the normal taxis mostly having GAS are not allowed to go inside the main gate there is almost 300-400 meter of walking distance from the main entrance. I would only suggest to stay away from this hotel they seem to have some kind of contract with Russian tourism with cheap rates after the 2013 incidence and mostly Russian tourist occupy the hotel therefore for all other tourist they try to loot them as they cant get enough money from majority of their tourist.

Pros: Good hotel with all infrastructure inside. Food is good. Swimming pool with sea water.

Cons: Animation for pension.

Pros: Very nice location, beautiful view and direct access to the beach.

Cons: I had to wait more than one and a half hours to get the key card.

Pros: Clean hotel n pleasant staff.good food

Cons: Room service cud b better

Pros: Beautiful pool. Plenty of fresh fish in the restaurant.

Cons: Restaurant interior is not very pretty but outside terraces are beautiful

Pros: Spacious room, comfortable bed, nice decoration, great beach and pool areas, good breakfast and parking. Beach view.

Cons: Room is older than look on photos. Shower could be better cleaned and planned - bathroom got flooded after shower. Long corridors with carpets floors.

Pros: Welcoming reception staff, lovely clean spacious rooms. We were lucky enough to be given a room facing the sea - absolutely beautiful, even though the weather was bad when we were there.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Private Beach.

Cons: Firstly, during my two night stay I had the cleaners walk into our room 4 times despite stating I did not want the room done up. They just walk in without knocking. They walked in on my husband changing. Find that very unprofessional. Many of the staff working at marhaba beach expect tips and will hang around you until tipped which made me feel very uncomfortable. Also, just to make you aware for muslims considering booking marhaba beach they serve several pork dishes for breakfast which are placed right next to the non pork dishes and often the serving spoons are all mixed.

Pros: Staff and hotel

Cons: WiFi very weak in my room especially

Pros: Clean, a really 4 star hotel. Bank, shop, free towels for the beach, wifi. Almost perfect.

Cons: Everything fine.

Pros: Great hotel with everything you need. Very good value for the price.

Cons: The only problem I had was the guy who works at the spa&fitness center near the outdoors pool. There are two guys who work there - I'm talking about the guy without glasses. The gym is supposed to work until 6pm. That's what the sign in front says, and that's what the reception told me several times. When I went to the gym my first day, this guy kicked me out at 5:30pm saying that he needs 30 min to clean everything. He lied to me, and nobody cleaned anything, and he just shut the doors at 5:30pm. That's alright. However, I come there in a day at 4:30pm thinking that I have an hour to work out. And this guy started kicking me out straight away saying that they close at 4:30pm during Ramadan. I was confused, and I asked him to show me where it says that the working hours are different during Ramadan time. HE STARTED SCREAMING AT ME. He told me that he doesn't have to show me anything and he decides when to close the gym. So, I left. I asked the receptionist guy if the gym indeed closes at 4:30pm during Ramadan, and he told me that it should work until 6pm as usual. I travel all the time, and I stayed at 100+ hotels, and I've never met a hotel staff that rude and unprofessional.

Pros: The food was excellent and for that reason alone I would consider returning if I am ever in Sousse again. A nice 30 minute walk along coast to the medina with bus and taxis everywhere.

Cons: I'd rate higher if hotel had decent communication. I contacted them 4 times to change dates but never got a response, thus losing out on an important part of my plans for this vacation. Not exactly ruining my vacation plans but severely upsetting them. The refrigerator and shower drain did not work.

Pros: Beyond my expectation! Low price, high quality!

Cons: Breakfast needs improvement!

Pros: It exceeded my expectations. Sparkling clean room and bathroom; comfy bed; nice sea view. The housekeeping lady should be commended. Breakfast was delicious, varied and abundant. Restaurant staff always ready to help and keep the table clean. Animators friendly and creative. Location was perfect...five minutes from train station.

Cons: Nothing to complain about. All was good and enjoyable.

Pros: Cockroaches in room

Cons: Woke up one night to use toilet an had 10-12 large cockroaches running around in shower, once light was on they ran down the drain, you have to pay for some of the entertainment when supposed to be all inclusive, food not nice and repetitive and trying to find a clean table at lunch is impossible, pool staff are very good and Animation team try there best but hotel is run down and could do with a refurb

Pros: Breakfast was lavishly laid out. Many dining options in the hotel.

Cons: Double bed is 2 beds joined together. Heater wasn't working properly.

Pros: Location and rooms very good.

Cons: Internet connection very week.

Cons: The staff were not helpful for checking in or checking out.

Pros: All the amenities

Cons: I am positive that the bed in room 2036 had bed bugs as both my wife and I were bitten

Pros: Good location. Close to medina, bus station, and taxi station. Easy to visit the Mosque, the Ribat, and the Museum. Great view to the sea. We called room service one night and the food is great and not expensive!

Cons: The showel gel and shampoo were covered with dust. I dare not to use them. The only free facility is the swimming pool. I expected that there would be more Jacuzzi at the pool. The shower room beside the pool is not very clean and there are no staff there. In addition, the beach beside the hotel is very dirty.

Pros: We had a really lovely weekend with our family in this hotel! The cleanliness is absolutely impeccable, the food was varied and super tasty at the restaurant. The swimming pools and the private beach are amazing. The view from the sea view rooms are breathtaking.

Cons: Apart from the 3 swimming pools, there are no other facilities at the hotel. If you are with children and they are done swimming, there is nothing else they can do. I really missed an animation team, a kids club with airco, at least a little playing corner or a slide and swing. For adults there is nothing going on in the evenings, not even on Saturday nights. There is no animation, show, music or party. A pool table or some more music would have been great at least.

Pros: Good restaurant and staff

Cons: I don’t know why the reception gave me the second floor room. Bad view

Pros: Excellent location in front of sea and very close to city centre and the medina. Nice pool and the small private beach. excellent cleanliness all around the structure.

Cons: During the three nights stay they offered in room only one soap bar, one coffee sachet and one small bottle of water and an empty frigo bar. The “a la carte” restaurant was not operative. The quality of the food of buffet restaurant was good, however waiters were poorly organized and mostly of the time spent there, my table was never cleaned. The breakfast timetable was reported 06.30 till 10.30; on the first day I joined the breakfast room at 09.55 and at the time, almost the buffet items were already removed by the waiters. At the check out time, the front desk operator was not able to provide me with the final invoice. Normally You will expect better services in a 5* Hotel.

Pros: The gym was excellent - and very nicely located in the hotel so it gave a great view of the sea. The rooms are also very nice, recently renovated, with excellent water pressure.

Cons: Service and associated components - such as finding towels for the pool and exercise room, and water cups for the water in the exercise room. No staff other than the lifeguard at the pool to provide assistance.

Pros: Staff and location and the decorations are good

Cons: The TV wasn't working

Pros: The place was as expected for the price. I think just the breakfast was above average in this range. There wasn't any bad surprises either, the place is relatively well kept, quite clean and my room was confortable and roomy, with an average double bed and a handy desk and chair.

Cons: The hotel could use some refurbishment and/or maintenance (as well as curtains in the showers). But there was nothing unacceptable. Also, you'll be likely to offered to have dinner in a small family restaurant just round the corner; I don't think it's worth it, the restaurant within the building of the hotel (Dar Soltane) has better quality food for about the same price.

Pros: Helpful, pleasant staff and excellent location. The breakfast was very filling and sets you up for the day. The rooms are comfortable, but relatively basic, but very good value for money. It’s right in the centre of the old town, next to the Grand Mosque and only ten minutes’ walk from the beach. It’s about the same time to walk to the train station if you fancy a trip to Tunis or Monastir.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Great location extremely clean and helpful friendly staff.

Cons: No pool.

Pros: The staff was lovely n friendly

Cons: There not much i didnt like but the internet could be better, and the breakfast could change some days.

Pros: If chasing the Tunisian vibe, the hotel is perfectly located and only a quick walk to the beach. It is great value for money, comfy and clean. Highly recommended if not chasing a resort.

Cons: Breakfast was a tad Spartan, but with the accommodation, I got more than I paid for.

Pros: It is worth it in terms of money.

Pros: Location, friendly staff and clean i would recommend it.

Cons: None

Pros: Location, Staff, Price, and Everything. If I have chance to come back to Sousse again, I will surely stay at this hotel. Highly recommend!!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location was good. The room size & balcony was good. The bed was comfortable. The swimming bools was clean.

Cons: The staff in the reception didn’t explain to me the different between the three hotels. Check in took long time. There is no coffee & tea in the room. The shower in the bathroom not fully closed by glass that’s why you will see the water on the floor. The food need to improve. The staff in the restaurant they didn’t respect the people especially the dealing with arab people & they are in hurry to clean the table & collect the plates from occupancy

Pros: However, it is an old building, it was quite clean and well-maintaned. The food was proper.

Cons: Too much people everywhere. Big crowd around the pools and few sunbed in the beach (if you arrive late, you can not find free).

Pros: Food items are not renewable WiFi signal is excellent

Cons: My stay was in Ramadhan month, i booked half board Dinner was breakfast for me, open buffet Sohour meal, they used to send to my room a dish of small items t

Cons: I could not receive the invoice for my stay even I paid to the hotel. they told me to receive it from Booking.

Pros: Excellent hotel, actually the beach was not good because is not summer yet but when I was on summer was wonderful.

Pros: The room was quiet. The personnel is very kind and helpful.

Cons: The buffet food isn't fresh at all. The rooms aren't very clean. The swimming pool needs a deep renovation.

Pros: Generally it’s fine but a lot of things are going bad .

Cons: Never go back there again.

Pros: The meal was pretty good.

Cons: We got a very stinky room after 3 hours waiting for it. The hotel had us checked in 1 hour after the official time (3pm instead of 2pm). We also checked out at 1pm instead of 12am but nobody from the staff hurried us... Which let us understand why we didn't have our room on time in the first place. Also, the staff feels over overloaded which seems to affect workers' moods and efficiency. We had to express ourselves in French instead of local language (which we master too), to be served properly.

Pros: The food

Cons: The loud of dj s music at the hours of the noon.We talk about this with people of the hotel but they did nothing.

Pros: Swimming pool

Cons: Little choice on dinner buffet

Pros: I liked the grandiose of the hotel. The service is that of 3 stars. I booked a large bed and ended with two twin beds.

Cons: Had to wait a long time to get access to my room. I don't like the idea that you can't lock your room from the inside.

Pros: Clean rooms, big swimming pool, private beach

Cons: Food - poor vegetarian options, no fresh juices, during the dinner no drinks included in the price(even not a water). In the room few things were broken ( the shower handle, curtains with holes..)

Cons: When we arrived having booked a quadruple room to accommodate the family we found only twin beds and no beds for the children. These were eventually provided 6 hours after check-in despite booking these in advance.

Pros: Location , staff

Cons: Facilities

Pros: Beach is excellent, alcohol is not bad. 20 mins by walk from Port El Kantaoui with nice view. Staff is smiling and helpful

Cons: Dirty restaurante, not all rooms renovated. Balcony is not privet, can always listen noise from other rooms

Pros: Place are very nice, staff are helpful.

Cons: Old furniture, Phone is not working, no power socket near the bed

Cons: Dirty smily rooms with very old furniture

Pros: The hotel is good

Cons: My first stay 2 years ago it was much better than this time I didn’t aspect that the made was going to take things (shoe and child dress) with out our permission. And the ac was not working

Cons: Everything good

Pros: location was good

Cons: rooms were poorly maintained with no facilities as advertised

Pros: The food The staff The location The pool

Cons: It was difficult being half-board when everyone else was all-inclusive. There wasn’t much opportunity to buy food and drinks though the American bar was great.

Pros: very bad servis at Rezeption.restaurant was o.k..r

Cons: rooms max. 2 star

Pros: Rooms are not clean at all

Cons: Bad furniture

Pros: nothing

Cons: I did not like anything in this hotel

Pros: The security guards were very friendly. The beach was nice. The lobby and public area was very grand.

Cons: One of our room cleaners was very kind and friendly but as a general rule we found the staff not at all welcoming or friendly. We did not purchase all inclusive and had to almost beg for ice for drinks we bought at the store. One day we were informed quite abruptly that we were not allowed to have the little 2 ounce coffees in paper cups as we weren't all inclusive. So petty. I did not like that there was no bar, snack bar or restaurant on the property where we could buy even a coffee or food. Room cleaning was erratic, sometimes we had to go hunting for towels and toilet paper. More than once it took hours for them to respond to our request. Cleanliness was non existent. Coffee tables and sofas in the lower lobby were disgusting. A person clearing tables in the dining room, dropped his cloth, stepped on it and picked it up to keep using it.

Pros: Good service all hotel staff

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Everythis is perfect

Pros: Absolutely Nothing

Cons: Everything

Pros: Very bad experience we had in this hotel Old bad rooms, ACs not working, No WiFi , pool and pool bar close at 5pm !!!

Cons: Very bad experience we had in this hotel Old bad not clean rooms, ACs not working in the room, No WiFi , pool and pool bar close at 5pm !!! Staff with attitude...

Pros: all is ok

Cons: no thing

Pros: Everyone was very helpful and the value was terrific.

Cons: When I booked, I had to provide a deposit through an agent in the UK. I would have liked to be able to book using my usual debit card.

Cons: A 4-star hotel, more a like a -4 star! I really want to support tourism in Sousse, especially as foreigners, but from the minute we arrived, the service was horrible at best. To start, parking was a challenge, and at the reception desk the staff very rudely insisted there was no reservation. When we arrived in the room (far below the standards of a 4 star hotel), in the bathroom there were no towels (one dirty towel on the floor), just a tiny stream of water coming out of the faucet, and practically no functioning lights--one light was even hanging out of the ceiling. This must be a problem in general for them, as instead of a sign to hang on the door to stay "please make up my room" or "please do not disturb," the sign had a list of repairs that needed to be done! Of course the safety deposit box was also closed, and the wifi didn't work (the wifi didn't work anywhere in the hotel). When we went to report these problems at the reception, they told us no towels were available because the spa had just closed (at 5 pm), and we had to be in our room at 6 pm for the handyman to come as we "unavailable." Now the pool and beach--overrun and DIRTY! Everything from the beach itself to the lawn chair covers (which were even hard to get, and which were quickly taken from us the minute we entered the water even though we left our things there). The beach bar--amongst 6 waiters standing around, no one came to serve us, much of the menu was unavailable, and no one really spoke English. Also, the table and chairs were filthy. The all-inclusive meal experience was something I have never seen--the room was full of cigarette smoke and smoke from grilled meat, with no windows open. The lines were so long it was not even possible to get food, and best of all, there were no plates and silverware. We asked several waiters for plates and silverware, and no one would help us. We noticed about 30 people waiting at the kitchen door for plates--and when a waiter came out he was stormed by this mob. We just gave up...not to mention, dinner was only served from 6:30-9 pm. In short, don't stay here. Frankly, our entire experience in Sousse was a big negative. I know they are hungry for tourism after the horrible and gruesome attack, but the services and hospitality are really lacking.

Pros: Nothing is good

Cons: Nothing I like

Pros: Everything else is wonderful.

Cons: Some of the staff are aggressive.

Pros: The Pools are very good taken care of. Location on the beach nice as well. The staff, are very friendly if you treat them with respect.

Cons: Avoid this hotel if you want a good all inclusive, this hotel only wants your money!! We found out that this hotel has been rented to a person who is only in it to make money. You can feel it on everything, and we talked to many employee. It’s a all inclusive, plenty of choice for food but very poor food( not warm) and the drinks suppose to be cold but we’re not. Poor options on the bar near the pool. Locals can enter the resort as well, so especially in summer time stuffed with locals. Terrible loud sound system near the pool. Resort packed with Russians and arabe people, rarely you find French, Dutch or Germans! Rooms poor quality, sizes are good of the room. Airco is working, at least in our room, but we had many ants in our room. We stayed here for few days, which was ok! But if you plan two weeks all inclusive avoid this hotel

Pros: Aqua park

Cons: They have minimal staff number to run the service which is really poor Apart from aqua park which is also open for public not only for hotel guests there is nothing deserves to stay in this hotel So anyone can stay wherever in Sousse and have a day there for the crowded aqua park Very crowded main restaurant while they have only 2-3 waiters to serve for more than 100 guests at least I believe this hotel should not be on booking as a hotel There was no phone in my room and they couldn’t manage to provide one all through my stay as well

Pros: Close to the beach

Cons: Very old, no maintenance whatsoever. The stag were non professional, card machine not working......and so on.

Pros: The staff were all very nice and helpful. Behind the hotel are its two pools, one with water slides for the kids and another a bit more for the adults, and then you can go down some stairs from there, cross a street, and be on nice beach with soft sand. The hotel has chairs and equipment for rent at the beach, but you are free to not use that and/or walk to the other popular beaches on both sides of it. All-inclusive buffet was OK, and the food selection changed from day-to-day, but I would not call it amazing. About 15 minutes walk to main Medina (shopping area) and a plaza where you can find a mini-train or horse carriage rides for tours of the area.

Cons: It seems to be a tired old hotel, kind of falling apart, such that I'm not sure it will still be around a year or two from now. I feel a bit sorry for the staff who seem to be trying to deal with it as best they can. But for the price maybe you are getting what you pay for. On first day, we could not use one of our two rooms because the lock did not work (and also, they had not finished cleaning it), and it took an incredible amount of discussion (multiple hours, multiple people) to get them to not charge us for that night. They do not take credit card for payment, so make sure to bring a lot of cash. Not in a very nice area - no interesting restaurants or shops within a couple blocks of hotel - more an area for locals, but perhaps this is a more true experience of Tunisia.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Perfect location, next to the beach. Very nice facilities. Everyday cleaning

Pros: Restaurant and bar was very polite. Location is perfect. 2min to the beach and 10 min to metro.

Cons: Food was very limited and cold. Reception staff was rude and needed 2h to get keys to the room. Elevator didn't work properly.

Pros: Good beach and swimming pool Great value of money

Cons: Staff You can eat only in restaurants

Pros: The hotel is in a very good place. The complex is large and there are plenty of guests, respectively. A pool, a view of the sea - they're great. Breakfast is also very good.

Cons: Receptionists are overloaded because they have very few. There are relatively few employees in general, and the cleanliness is not high. The elevator is only one, and very slow, so basically the stairs should be used.

Pros: *The location is amazing! Close to the down town and the beach is across the street. *The breakfast was good. *The outdoor pool was cool. *The price we paid was fair enough honestly. * Some of the reception staff were nice. *The animation in the hotel was good. *Very nice view (room with a pool and sea view).

Cons: *Poor insulation; we heard everything in the next room and all the noises the other guests were making (they gave us one of 2 connecting rooms, we made a complaint in the reception to change it but they told us to wait, then they did nothing to fix this mistake) * TV not working,we made a complaint too and again, nothing happened. *No internet connection in the rooms, only in the hallways and the common areas. *Poor toiletries; they changed the towels but no toilet paper or shampoo ( except when we directly asked for it), we asked for a trash can too. * the “Do not disturb” sign was not existing, the cleaning lady would come any time she wishes, she just opens the door and enter, doesn't matter if it is 8 am or midday which was quite uncomfortable. *the indoor hotel pool was not clean or well kept. *Finally the security issue: a large group of non-tunisian young men were guests the second night we were there, they did all kind of noises, wake us up at 4 am knocking in our door and other rooms, we went to the reception , again, made a complaint and asked ,again, to change the room, one lady working there just told us to adapt!!!!

Pros: Bad staff, bad service the bed was not comfortable ,

Pros: Location

Cons: All other things except of the location
