“Excellent Value for Money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 June 2010

I have stayed in this hotel many times over the past ten years and it has never disappointed. The Belvedere is a veritable gem in Tunis; even if perhaps it doesn't live up to European/international four-star criteria, it definitely puts many of the 'recognized' four-star establishments (e.g. al-Hana) in Tunis to shame, and even does so at very competitive rates (ca £35 for bed and breakfast). The rooms are spacious, well appointed (including free quite fast wi-fi, bathrobe, trouser press), extremely clean and well maintained. The restaurant offers good-quality food, and the staff are generally very friendly. Whilst other travellers have commented on its distance from the city centre (Avenue Bourguiba, souk), it is little more than a brisk walk away along the lively Avenue de la Republique. The Belvedere gardens are only metres away and definitely worth a stroll. The area also has a number of shopping outlets, including a little supermarket next door to the hotel and a big Monoprix further up, as well as cafes and restaurants. Perhaps one drawback worth mentioning is the fact that some rooms have connecting doors which means that sound can travel. It wasn't a problem for me and was limited merely to the faint sound of the television next door sometimes, but I guess it might be if you have neighbours from hell. However, as the hotel primarily caters for businessmen, academics and couples, one does not suffer the excesses of package tourism afficionados.

“a good 4 star hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 May 2010

I enjoyed my stay for 4 days. I was able to negotiate a reduction in the rate, took half board, breakfast reasonable, dinner good. They have a computer free for guests to use the internet. Very clean all round, rooms modern with flat screen TV with a selection of english, french, german channels. Zoo very near, worth a visit. Not an ideal location, but taxis are very cheap, otherwise 15 minute walk to the main central parts of Tunis.

“Nice hotel but a mediocre location for tourists”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 November 2009

We were comfortable at this hotel and it was clean with a pretty helpful staff. Staff's English differed from person to person but it wasn't a person for us specifically. Bathroom was nice, clean and had a good shower. It is 5 minute walk from the nearest tram station and at least 10 minutes to the medina; so not the best place for pure tourists to sortie from in Tunis. Breakfast was okay- go early for best selection. Overall we were happy with the hotel itself.

“Very comfortable and high value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2009

This hotel is very clean, has excellent staff, and has wonderful service. The location is close to the beautiful Parc Belvedere and only about 10 minutes from the airport and near key downtown offices. The free WiFi and breakfast buffet make this an excellent choice for a business or pleasure.

“Great hotel a little off the beaten path”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 March 2007
3
people found this review helpful

It's not right in the center of Tunis, but it's a fantastic hotel. And at TD78 for a deluxe double room (listed rate was TD88) including breakfast, it was very good value.

Upon arriving in Tunis by train for a few days, my fiancee and I checked out the very central Hotel Carlton first, but at TD108 for a small double with breakfast we thought it was a bit pricey. After a 5-minute TD1.5 cab ride to the Belvedere, we were sold. The room is spacious and very comfy, with phone, minibar, and satellite TV. The bathroom is also sizable, very clean, and very nice. Great shower and nice touches all around. There was no noise from inside the hotel, and street noise is minimum. The street isn't too busy and you're well-insulated from the outside.

The front desk staff are very welcoming, and very helpful. They were a big help finding a local laundry where I could get clothes washed by the kg rather than the much more expensive piece-by-piece in the hotel. They were also quick to arrange a reasonably priced taxi to the airport for us in advance. Cleaning staff are great and always seem to have a kind word for you. Restaurant staff are superb. The dinner menu and the food are ok, but the buffet breakfast would rate slightly above average.

The only downside could be the location. We liked being a bit out of the way in a more residential neighborhood, but there are limited eating options within walking distance. There is a pricey but decent Chinese restaurant ("Hong Kong") and a local chain just north of the nearby zoo entrance. Otherwise, there is some good and cheap takeaway food within 5-10 minutes walk on Avenue Libertie, going towards the center/medina. The center of town (Ave Habib Bourgiba) is a 20-30 min walk or a 5-20 min cab ride depending on traffic. It'll be less than TD2. The hotel has wireless and pc internet access for a charge, but there are much cheaper internet cafes within short walking distance. I spotted four within 10 mins walk.

In short, great find if you're willing to be less central (though it is actually closer to the airport). We would gladly stay here again.
