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 There was a tear in the (outdated)curtains and stains on the towels.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.

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.

One of my best holidays!
I stayed at this hotel for 7 nights in October and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Staff were very helpful and polite (especially lotfi at the reception desk.) I arrived early but my room was prepared for me within half an hour. I also received a complimentary upgrade to a sea view room. The view was stunning and the room was very spacious with my own private balcony. The room looked exactly the same as the pictures on the website which is usually quite rare! I stayed on a half board basis - there was a lot of variety with the food and there was something new every night. I never struggled to find something to eat but the food was a little bland for my taste. The location was brilliant, the beach was on the doorstep and there was a supermarket two minutes away. Port yasemine is only a ten minute walk away and hammamet is a short cab ride. There is also a lovely little cafe (hot2hot) nearby where we had lunch most days for a very small price. A few point for improvement - I could not log into the wifi even in reception for the first few days. Subsequently I managed to get wifi access in the hotel lobby but not in my room. Also, the bathroom/toilet was quite dirty - there were a few permanent stains which were not nice. Overall, this is a lovely hotel, great value for money, great location, staff are brilliant and I would definitely return!

awful customer service
To start with, this is not a 5 stars hotel by any means! The furniture, carpet and bedding is very old! There are stains on everything. The carpet on the hallways look like it's 100 years old. I stayed there for 5 nights... the room was not cleaned once! They would make the bed while I was gone, but not clean the floors or the bathroom. The balcony looked filfthy when I first arrived and it was never cleaned, dispite the fact that I requested it to be. The staff was extremely rude and unhelpful starting from the gentleman at front desk. They all look miserable at their job and are not afraid to show how much they don't care. Breakfast was nothing special, not much variety. Dinner was better, more options. The location is not bad, there are some shops and restaurants within walking distance. The hotel is right in front of the beach. I did not go in the water at all... the beach is the dirtiest I have ever seen. There is trash all over!!! Unbelieavly dirty! I would not recommend this hotel for anyone unless you have a very small budget.

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.

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
