“large rooms but not totally impressed!!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

On going to the hotel a couple of days before we were told that they had works going on and if we wanted to change the hotel we would have to pay extra so we decided to stay in the same hotel. On arriving, i was a bit unhappy as we were having to wait a long time on reception, then we were shown to a room and I was not happy with it at all, it was a large family room but it was dusty and and a very dark room the rug on the floor was filthy, I was not happy with that room as I had a toddler and he needed to be on carpet. I then asked for another room, the third room I was shown i accepted after they promised they would clean it. I am not a perfectionist but we usually stay in a 4 or 5star hotel and the hotel was just not up to standard. I had also asked for a fridge to be included in the room for medication and this was also a hassle for them to get for me and that was nothing to write home about. There was not kettle no iron or anything like that in the room. so I am glad I had taken my own. we were half board so we had breakfast and evening meal, the only downfall of the halfboard was we had to buy the drinks they were not included which was a rip off really as we should have had at least bottled water but we had to pay for the drinks, the food was nice freshly cooked crepes were nice and they had a good selection of breads etc. The evening meal was also quite nice. They had a good outside area with a nice outdoor swimming pool and a nice area to sit, but no activities or anything like that going on in the hotel which we rather disappointed about and no activites for the children like other hotels do, not even a bouncy castle!!It was ok but would not be going there again. The hotel reception were quite unhelpful and did not speak much english. The boat trips they arrange from hotel the men kept bothering u to take them up and u have to haggle with them to get to a price that you want to pay!!the surroundings were good though they had a nice marina a short distance 5 min walk away and around 10 mins away a beach. shops around and cafes where the food was good and they also had a supermarket which was near where u could buy milk etc for your drinks if you had a fridge.

Room Tip: dont be happy with the first room they provide

“Nice stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 November 2010

I stayed there for 4 days before 2009 and by that time it was a nice and good hotel to stay, to enjoy the beach and relax with quality. I only stayed there for four days because I did a tour around the country and stayed in other hotels in the desert (3*hotels that were very poor but nice). This is a 4* hotel and provides a service accurate to what it is.
Professional staff, good cleaning, good buffet, good services in general. If you have to wake-up at 4am or 5am they will have breakfast ready for you along with all the attentions you need. If you need to exchange money they can do it for you at the front desk.
The swimming-pool is really nice!

The only but is they gave me a nice room on the first 3 days but no view at all (my view was for a tennis court and some garbage bins) and only on the last day I was changed to a suite with pool and beach view: stunning! shame I had to wake-up at 4 am to catch my flight.

It was a nice stay still some Spanish customers had a problem with their rooms. They putted 2 couples on a suite because they didn't have enough rooms for everybody. Apparently it was a booking problem. Not a pleasant thing I must say. I don't no how I would react in such a situation.

My experience was positive and I would come back!

“Welcoming staff, Scorching holiday”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 November 2010

person found this review helpful

Me and my 19 year old cousin stayed here for a week at the beginning of july 2010, we arrived after a very early flight, you cant change your money before you go to tunisia so you have to do that when you get to the hotel, however the exchange didnt open till 3.30 and we arrived just after 12. However the staff are extremly welcoming and will put food and drink on a tab for you if you havent got the cash present, they bring everything to you and will not let oyu lift a finger, beware of the creepy photographer guys, some of them come across too friendly and dont like to take no for an answer. The weather was scorching at this time of the year and i would have to consider going a little later in the year if i was to go back, the rooms were nice although there was no clip to hold the shower head, this was trivial. the rooms were kept very clean. It is a very quiet area not a place for couples wanting to have abit of nightlife, lovely marina just a few minutes away and marina palace has its own section of beach which was a very nice touch, nice to walk about at night but be careful of people trying to sell stuff and pull you into shops. very lovely area
