The hotel was in a great location which made exploring Tunis easy. I appreciated that it is a historical hotel that was a British embassy for over 350 years. The decore is unique Neo Moorish. The staff were helpful and my room was clean and comfortable.

It was an ok stay, though it is a very central location. Noise wasnt that bad. Housekeepers are excellent and front desk commendable though F&B was efficient, was not good at customer service. Food on menu was average and breakfast buffet the same. It would have been excellent in its hay day but now run down. A little pricy for what you get.
