10/10 Excellent
"Le The Residence Tunis est, sans aucun doute, mon hôtel préféré en Tunisie. Cela fait plus de sept ans que j’y séjourne régulièrement avec ma famille, et chaque visite confirme pourquoi j’y reviens toujours avec autant de plaisir. Dès que l’on franchit les portes de l’hôtel, on ressent une atmosphère de calme, d’élégance et de raffinement. Les espaces sont magnifiques, les chambres sont spacieuses, confortables et impeccablement entretenues. La grande piscine est superbe et entourée d’un jardin luxuriant qui mène directement à une magnifique plage privée, parfaitement aménagée. C’est un véritable havre de paix où il est facile de se détendre. Le spa mérite également une mention toute particulière. Les installations sont magnifiques, la piscine du spa est exceptionnelle et l’ambiance est propice à une détente absolue. Les massages et les différents soins sont d’une qualité remarquable. Un grand merci à Hossine pour son professionnalisme, son accueil attentionné et la qualité irréprochable de son service, qui rendent l’expérience encore plus mémorable. La restauration mérite également d’être soulignée. Le petit-déjeuner est exceptionnel, varié et généreux, avec des produits de grande qualité. Les dîners au restaurant L’Olivier sont tout aussi excellents. Installé sur une magnifique terrasse, à l’ombre des oliviers, le restaurant offre un cadre paisible et raffiné qui rend chaque repas encore plus agréable. Nous avons également eu le plaisir de profiter du buffet spécial du"

10/10 Excellent
"The property is right on the ocean and offers a lovely pool and excellent restaurant. The first night, the air conditioner didn't work in my room and the manager quickly moved me into a suite. I was the first guest to stay there! It was a welcoming, spacious room(s) and the TWO air conditioners worked great. I had dinner at the poolside restaurant, which was pitched as a 'snack bar'. I had grilled fish with fresh baked bread, two different types of salad and French fries. It was accompanied by the obligatory harissa as well as ketchup and mayo. I had a bottle of water and a bottle of wine for < twenty bucks. The included breakfast was European - pastries, coffee, juice, tea. There are a few rough spots in the finishing of the rooms, but clean and comfortable. Well located for the old port, restaurants, medina and mosques. As a solo female traveler, I appreciated the feeling of safety and warm welcome."
