Villa les Palmes

I had a great stay here, the owners are very kind people and make you feel at home. I found the room quiet and peaceful and enjoyed the breakfast in the mornings overlooking the garden. Lots of interesting places are walkable from the hotel. Would recommend!

Outdated and overpriced. The property is very old design and not repainted, the heating is old radiators which are not sufficient for the cold. Shared spaces and close quarters are not good for privacy. This is a bed and breakfast from a nice couple, but not what we needed at the time. The garden is not maintained and consists of outdated handmade funiture. The guest house is a 2 story climb up a spiral staircase to a small room with no substantial heat, TV or ample space. Room service is nonexistent and all food must extra pay for dining with the hosts, also overpriced. We filled out an old fashioned papework, took a bath, and immediately went to the Marigold some 3 blocks away. Quaint, but unnecessary. I did thank the owner Ali for his efforts, but unfortunately it was not modern enough for our desire.

This was a charming and comfortable place to spend several days in Tunis. It’s old and lovely and the hosts are excellent and incredibly kind and knowledgeable. It is quiet and peaceful and a little quirky with old movie posters and fabulous antiques. Highly recommended and we would happily stay again.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Les Palmes! Our hosts were so welcoming and helpful and we enjoyed delicious food during our entire stay, and our room was very comfy and always clean.

The property has good potentials, but some improvements are needed to make more comfortable.

The property has potential however overall I did not have a successful stay. Upon check in I was advised that the room had a shared bathroom. The owner advised that he had a room with a private bathroom but this was more expensive. He advised me to cancel the original reservation and re-book the en-suite room and he would authorise a refund via ********** for the full cost of the original booking. I did this with great difficulty, as to why this could not have been sorted locally I am still unsure! Anyway ********** emailed to advise the owner had not waived the cancellation fee for the original booking. When I approached him he stated they had not contacted him. I wasted two days of my holiday dealing with this. The owner then said that as the second booking was made using a promotional rate (but still much higher value than the original booking) he wanted me to give him the amount of the promotion back in order for him to agree the refund of the original reservation - basically blackmail. It was clear he had not responded to ********** intentionally and this was part of his game to extract more money from me. Added to this the hotel had no heating on my first night and was not comfortable. The owner spends all of his time chain smoking in the kitchen - yes Kitchen! Meaning the whole place smelled of cigarette smoke. The breakfast was very basic and of poor quality and finally the photos on the website are not recent and not a true reflection. I do not recommend.
