That big pool may be a little public, sitting as it does right in front of the generously proportioned and generous portions restaurant, but it is inviting. It’s also a good place to chill out after a hearty lunch. Almost 100 rooms and a conference suite, you might mingle with guests and delegates at the same time. There’s a more... More

The hotel is superb with a large lobby decorated with taste in Arabic style. It is well located close to the main sites of Kairouan, including the many mosques of the Medina. As a result, don't be surprised if the nearby muezzin takes care of the wake-up call at about 5:00 a.m. The room was large and clean, decorated with... More

I have stayed at La Kasbah nearly a dozen times, the most recent being in July 2011. Kairouan has few hotel options and despite shortcomings, La Kasbah is the only hotel that goes beyond the basic, no frills hotel. One's initial reaction upon entering the hotel, with its wonderful tile work, setting amidst the historic architectural walls of this provincial,... More

I spent one night in this hotel and I wish I could have stayed longer. The room was clean and beautifully decorated. The main lobby of the hotel and well as the area around the swimming pool were beautiful and very welcoming. The staff was extremely helpful with any questions we had. More

Magnificent building that is exquisitely decorated with thoughtful and tasteful design. However, I got the distinct impression that the we were among very few guests staying at Hotel La Kasbah. This was evident at the poolside as well as in the restaurant at breakfast time. The result was that even on the warmest days, the majority of the public areas... More

We only stay for 1 night 2 days before the jasmine revolution. The hotel has a somber look from the outside but is luxurious inside with Arabic Islamic décor. The hotel inside the old fortress (kasbad) incorporate certain ancient areas that have been restored – the Turkish café, the a la card restaurant, the shopping area. The rooms have the... More

We stayed here on Christmas eve and had no choice but a 5 course French style dinner. The food was pretty ordinary but the entertainment was fun. A 2 piece group consisting of a man on drums with another on a Hammond organ. As well as a few Christmas standards they did a number of Elvis songs and even Quando,... More

I have to disagree with many of the reviews. I agree that some of the staff does not go out of their way to serve you, but it is still very good and we had a great experience with two young waiters who accompanied us to the cafe (the old prision), stayed with us chatting and sharing information about Tunisia...

I have stayed at La Kasbah on at least four occasions and frequently have clients stay at this hotel, as it is the only deluxe hotel in a city with simple hotels. The management seems to not see "service" as something that is part of the hotel. While the property itself is beautiful and well located in Kairouan, the rooms... More

At first glance this hotel looks great, and has a wonderful location inside the fortress on the edge of the ancient medina, a few minutes' walk from the Grand Mosque and the souks. The decor of the lobby looks fine, and our Junior Suite was pleasantly done. Unfortunately, the standards of maintenance and service fall way below the '5 stars'... More
