Excellent location. Stunning historical building. Beautiful rooms. Quite rustic so dont expect five star furnishings. They offer sarongs instead of towels. The wifi is terrible but its worth it to say in such an amazingly building and stunning rooms. Staff are excellent. Use of small kitchen to make tea if you want it. Great location walking distance from medina sites.

It is different and interesting, but the cleanliness has much to be desired, the area is dirty. However, the staff are excellent and super friendly.

Great location for a stay in Tunis! A close 10-15 minute walk to old Medina. Gazzi was a fantastic staff member helping us to book transportation and day tours.

Beautiful old house close to the medina

Dar Hayder is a stunning old house, decorated in traditional style, and we can’t recommend it highly enough.

The room was spacious and charming, with hand painted tiles and walls and a marble sink in the bathroom. The bed was firm but large and comfortable and it was very quiet at night. The house is clearly old, so some of the features (such as the shower) are not in pristine condition, but for us that only added to the charm.

Breakfast was generous and served in a particularly beautiful room from 8-10am. The owner was very welcoming and kindly agreed to serve us breakfast at 7:30am one morning as we had to leave at 8am for a day tour.

We really enjoyed staying in this characterful old house and would recommend it to anyone visiting Tunis.

The sweetest personnel and a unique and interesting hotel. It’s not a social hotel, so if that’s your priority it is not the right one. If you love a unique stay, it’s recommended!
Walking distance to the Medina and famous mosque, through interesting streets.
I loved my room!

Un petit bijou

Une maison d‘une grande beauté. Tout y respire l’authenticité. On se croirait dans un musée. Mais il ne faut pas s attendre à un service comparable à ce qu’on trouverait dans un hôtel.

Pärla i gamla stans (medinans) utkant

Otroligt fin pärla. Underbart rum i traditionell Tunisiskt medina-hus och med fantastiska gemensamma ytor. Väldigt trevlig service, bra rekommendationer på restaurang mm i närheten, god frukost med helt färskt bröd från bageriet intill. Det enda som var lite skakigt var wi-fi.

Worse Experience

The worse experience ever in my life . In this manipulative hotel .After they agree to change my date of booking when I reach Tunisia they told me they can't and then when I called and my Tunisian friend try to call they closed the phone on my face and their faces . Never come. Check google reviews. Learn how to be honest and how to deal with customers

Palais sans magie, si vous n’y mettez pas le prix

Ancien palais, l’endroit est typique et agréable. Néanmoins, si vous ne prenez pas la suite mais la chambre la plus économique vous serez déçus ! On nous a quand même laissé le choix entre une minuscule chambre sans grande intimité phonique et une chambre à l’écart avec deux lits simples et une salle de bain très rudimentaire. Il a fallut demander beaucoup de choses… Pas de serviettes, de savon, de clim, de wifi…
Bon petit déjeuner. Terrasse sur le toit très agréable avec vue à 360 sur Tunis (mais vous ne serez pas seuls !).
Attention si vous êtes véhiculé, c’est très compliqué de se garer dans la vieille ville…
Décevant, nous attendions plus de magie dans un endroit pareil.

Good Properties in Alleys

The staff are generally very nice especially the maid preparing breakfast to us, she is very attentive.
The properties is inside an alleys, you may not able to park the car in the alleys, someone with very high skill in maneuvering car in alleys may find it ok.
The wifi is not connected to our room, it serves in the common living room where you have breakfast.
Also, you need to ring the bell of main door to gain entry, it is not common to other dwelling.
