Lina K.
The building is beautiful, carefully restored, and very well designed, with details that keep its traditional character while adding modern comfort. It feels almost like a museum, a striking palace amid the Medina’s winding, untidy lanes. The photos show how much care the founders put into the details. There are eight spacious, elegant suites, and the location is about a ten-minute walk from the Great Mosque of Zituna and Bab Bhara, also called the French Gate. You can have breakfast on the rooftop terrace, and the hotel also has a hammam and steam room. We were first shown a room without a window, even though it wasn’t the room we’d selected online. Then we were offered an acceptable room, but still not the one we chose. It was unpleasant to feel that we might be misled. We stayed rather than walk around the hotel again, since we wanted time to relax. The hotel is really cool, probably the best one in the medina of Tunis, and it’s new and well designed. The hammam was a disappointment. Ventilation was poor, and guests only get a steam room experience. There are stones, but they aren’t heated as the usual heated slabs and seats would be, apparently to save money. We’ve been to different hammams in Turkey, where the experience felt authentic and properly done. Here, the advertising seemed better than the actual visit. Breakfast was very mediocre overall. The eggs, cheese, hot chocolate, and orange juice were tasty, and the coffee was decent, but the rest looked nice and didn’t taste acceptable to us. The hotel doesn’t serve lunch or dinner. How well you sleep depends on the Medina’s nighttime noise. For us, it was Sunday: restless, lively music went on for a long time, then dogs barked, and in the morning merchants setting out goods beside the hotel started arguing.

We loved the calm breakfast setting in the interior patio, and the rooftop was another highlight, with a lovely view over the Medina rooftops. We also had breakfast up there in the sun, enjoying the delicious, carefully prepared food. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome. Everyone was kind, attentive, and took great care of us. The hotel is very clean and beautifully maintained. There’s a wellness area where you can get massages and scrubs, with free access to the Turkish bath as well, which made the stay more relaxing. For an authentic experience in the heart of the Medina, close to many traditional restaurants, we highly recommend it.

The rooftop terrace was a highlight for me, with beautiful city views and a nice place to unwind. Breakfast is available, and although I didn’t try the spa, the prices looked quite affordable. The reception staff were helpful and accommodating, and the airport pickup was smooth and made arriving in Tunis stress-free. I stayed in a beautifully renovated apartment hotel in Tunis. The apartments are spacious and tastefully done, mixing traditional style with modern amenities to create a warm atmosphere that suits the charm of the old city. Its central spot in the historic district also makes it easy to get a feel for local culture and explore the lively surroundings. My experience was sensational. If you’re after comfort, an authentic feel, and good service, I’d highly recommend it.

Everything was perfect at Dar Ben Turkia: huge rooms, spotless throughout, and such lovely decor. The patio and terrace are beautiful, breakfast has a great selection, and the kind staff helped with every request. A fantastic hotel in the heart of the Tunis medina, with a spa too.

My wife, our baby daughter, and I have stayed here twice, and loved it both times. The courtyard and rooftop are gorgeous, and the hotel’s interior is beautiful. The staff couldn’t be more friendly or helpful. I’ll definitely keep coming back when we visit Tunis and Tunisia.
