a terrible stay and an ugly hotel
the hotel had no air conditioning. it didn't work at all. not great when it's in the 80's (high 20's C) at night. I asked for someone to fix it, the staff said all rooms are like this. In the advertisement they said they did have air conditioning. It was also a dirty hotel room that wasn't well laid out. I'd advocate avoiding this place.

Lovely hotel affected by challengin
Stayed here before. Lovely spacious room and bathroom. Not as thoroughly cleaned as I woud have expected for a 5* as evidenced by hairs in bathroom and shower and sand on console table and floor. Staff generally ok and friendly but not as warm/attentive as in some other local hotels. Reasonable and fairly standard meal selection. Good salads and some freshly cooked foods (grilled fish, pizza, pasta omelettes etc.) Limited 'animation' more suited to couples seeking a quiet break than families with young children. Would stay again

Great stay! I have visited Hammamet many times having lived in Tunisia now for more than 3 years and this is one of my top hotels. Hotel staff was friendly and welcoming. The room had a beautiful view of the sea and is steps away from its private well kept beach. The breakfast was good as well. Its also only a short walk to the marina where you can find cafes and restaurants. The pool was also big and clean.

Not a 5 stars hotel. Maybe a 3 1/2 or 4
Our friends went to this hotel for their honeymoon 5 years ago and recommended it. They were as disapointed as we were when they realised nothing had been updaded in 5 years. There was a tear in the (outdated)curtains and stains on the towels. It wasn't dirty, the rooms were spotless. But it wasn't the 5 stars hotel that it was back then. We had a room with sea view and weren't disapointed by that. The food was excellent. We were expecting wifi in the lobby only(as advertised) but it was available in both of our rooms. Their private beach was super clean.

Worst hotel experience so far
The hotel is so over priced for its services and quality. At least you would expect a bottle of water at your suite upon check in. AC wasn't working properly, room safe not working, paid for dinner and was informed that I had to pay extra for any drink, including water.

Good experience and friendly staff, however watch out for the excursion sales guys especially on arrival when they try to sell you a quad bike or boat trip they will follow u around for the sale. Haggle them as its 1/2 the price outside. Don't pay more than 40 dinars for quad bike , u can get it for 30 outside.

nice hotel, nice pool and beach. food was pretty much the same everyday for our week, so lack of variety made it boring especially with a young child. rooms dont have irons which is disapointing for a 5* hotel so you have to pay to use their ironing service. some staff were friendly, although the majority were rude (especicially cleaning staff) and need lessons on customer services.

Fantastic see view hotel
I would rate this hotel as 4 star hotel not 5 star. Rooms of this hotel need upgrading. Staff members are ok but sometimes they looked tired. We stayed 5 days and saw same people working from breakfast to dinner. In the reception lutfi was very helpful.

Unhappy Customer
This has not been a holiday but an endurance test which I think I passed with flying colours. This is not a five star hotel. At best four star rating with much improvement to be made by the hotel management. The staff seem to have a really bad attitude with certain guests that has not gone unnoticed by myself and others. They ignore certain guests and are over familiar with guests that are tipping them. They walk a fine line between downright rudeness and over familiarity with paying guests. If you enjoy drinking to the small hours and sunbathing all day this is the ideal holiday choice, but then you might have just picked Benidorm for a travel destination. The staff are the main problem of this hotel they are very artificial not genuine. My travel companion said good morning to the man in the restaurant making omelettes he completely ignored her and smiled and said hello to another guest. The similar thing happened when I went to reception half way through talking to me the woman at reception just turned away and started dealing with another customer's enquiry. Only when I said I wanted the hotel mangers name did I get the attention of these rude staff. The man at the reception panicked and said do I want to put a claim in. Now why would they be worried that I speak to the hotel manager unless they had something to be guilty about. A complaint is going into this hotel. I never want to visit this place again with these horrid staff, one visit was enough.

Decent hotel however not worthy of 5 stars
We stayed here recently after reading some excellent reviews. The location is beautiful, a short walk away from the marina. The hotel overall is nice however definitely not worthy of 5 stars. The room was lovely and spacious with an amazing view of the sea. The food was decent however after a mix up with our board basis we felt that the whole situation was handled extremely unprofessionally by the restaurant manager. Rude ,arrogant man. Not expected of a 5 star hotel. The spa staff were by far the most warm and welcoming. Doubt we will return though

Nice hotel but not a 5 star. More like 3.5
This hotel was probably a five star when it first opened, but now it is much below that. For example, the towels are faded and frayed, many of the dishes are chipped, some of the trim in the public area bathrooms has mildew growing on it, and there is mildew in some of the grout in the shower. However, it is comfortable and still a good value, just not five star level. The staff are friendly and helpful, the food is good, the A/C works well, the pool is lovely, and the area is great for a get-away. We took a 15 or 20 minute cab ride to the old medina, but the shopkeepers were very insistent, which some people might find fun but we don't particularly, so we left the medina after only 15 minutes or so.

Clean hotel, spacious rooms, however terrible wifi
The staff were pleasent if unchallenged, the moment you had a comment/complaint they were different. The breakfast buffet contained lots of food but not necessarily the type of food you would want to eat or associate with a four star hotel. The wifi connection was terrible and only worked in the lobby area at certain times of the day.

Brilliant stay
An excellent hotel, with reasonable facilities but BRILLIANT staff! We had some issues on arrival, which were dealt with immediately and we were given a complimentary upgrade to the Honeymoon Suite. Khadija, head of Guest Relations made a great deal of effort to get to know us and ensure all our needs were met. Having stayed in a number of 5* hotels, we must say this one has the best staff we have come across.
