I’ve stayed twice and will say the rooms are ok and the breakfast is great. The location is excellent if you want to see “real Tunis” because if you walk three blocks away from the Medina the city gets more interesting

I highly recommend The Hotel Royal Victoria - Ex British Embassy, Tunis, Tunisia, for any foreign traveler, not because it is centrally located (next to the Medina) and tour companies frequent this area, not because it is an historically important landmark, not because there are local restaurants within walking, not because all the internal woodworking - doors, ceilings, furniture was updated and all are hand painted by local Tunisian craftsman, not because of the fabulous breakfast buffet, but because of the STAFF! Day and Night managers; Omar, Omaima, Ladfe, Security; Mohammed and the two Ladies who create the breakfast Buffet, all are sincerely interested in providing all services that will assist you during your stay and in your travels. I could not have accomplished my goals without their help, THANK YOU to all the HRV STAFF.

Property is located well, next to the Medina as well as the Bourghiba Ave. Lots of dining options around. The square and gate infront of hotel makes it a good and festive envirnment in the eveneings. Mohammed, Omar and Umaymah was very helpful. Breakfast was decent.
