Golden Carthage Hotel & Résidence

Golden Carthage Hotel & Résidence

8/10 Good
"This is an unusual hotel. It was obviously designed as a first class hotel but the location is scenic but inconvenient. You have to have your own transportation or be ready to take taxis around. There is nothing within easy walking distance. That being said the facilities and staff are excellent. We were in one of the outbuildings of which there are about 10 and we never saw another guest. It was a bit strange. There was also a problem with a noisy wedding reception right next to our room but the reception quickly relocated us and solved the problem. Overall a fine hotel. Just the remoteness was unexpected."

"The hotel is clean, and overall the stay was okay, but there were several issues: ​Limited Amenities: Water bottles were provided only on the first day, and the bathroom had nothing available except soap and towls. ​Air Conditioning Issue: The AC unit was very loud and noisy. We reported it to reception, and a technician came to inspect it, but the problem was never resolved. ​"

The pool area is great for relaxing and there's a pool bar that has brilliant staff who serve a selection of beverages and food including authentic tunisian cuisine.
