La Villa Bleue-Sidi Bou Said

This hotel lacks a lot, the infrastructure in the area is horrible with old cobblestones making it extremely dangerous in the dark, the hotel doesn't have a luggage service, buses can't get there, you have to walk and they don't have any porters, many stairs making it very hard for people with reduced mobility or the elderly ones, breakfast is very basic and you have to pay extra for an omelette and you can't order food after 9pm.

We did not stay there, but had some drinks at their terrace which had a great view of the sea. It was the best service we had in Tunis. Fast, friendly and efficient. Excellent variety of drinks, both alcoholic and non alcoholic. Serenity with a view.

Poor customer service. I wouldn’t recommend them when there are many other hotels with better service in the area. Poor customer service.

Location: almost at the edge of Sufi Bou Saeed’s cliff, right by a viewpoint with stunning views. You cannot beat the views on their terraces (the breakfast area and the pool area).. The breakfast area terrace has an unobstructed view of the Mediterranean. Access to cars: Even if it’s in the pedestrian area, cars have access to pick you up or drop you off at the hotel entrance. However, expect to pay a higher fare, given that you’d have to ask the hotel to call a taxi for you, or, that most Bolt, InDrive transfer app drivers try to avoid driving through the pedestrian area. You can walk through the pedestrian area yourself (a 10min stroll), but not with suitcases (streets in the pedestrian zone are cobbled and can be slippery). Rooms: There are a few rundown rooms and a few that are not sea view. My advice is to aim for a sea view room that’s been renovated/well-maintained (if you’re staying there, might as well pay extra and enjoy the sea view off your windows, balcony or terrace). Do not count on getting good Wi-Fi inside some of the rooms (depending on the location of your room). But the rooms have safes, are spacious and are clean. Staff: Wonderful staff! They carry a positive attitude and are more than ready to help with any question or request you have. Lubna and Reem (at the reception) excel at providing the best service possible. Kareema and Hamza (breakfast area) carry a cheerful attitude while providing a great service at breakfast. Mariam and Afaf (house-keeping) work nonstop at making sure everything is spick-and-span. The whole crew take their work seriously and always carry a smile on their faces and a can-do attitude.
