    Breakfast is a bit disappointing.

    Overall, really good experience. The staff was amazing. No matter the difficulty of the request (all of which out of the scope of their hotel), they went out of their way to solve it. I want to personally thank the male receptionist with longer hair (do not recall his name now) who was tireless during our stay.

    A small, cozy, and exceptional hotel perched at the top of beautiful Sidi Bou Said. The charm of the place is only matched by the kindness and professionalism of the staff. We were warmly welcomed and very well treated throughout our stay — special thanks to the General Manager, Mohamed, whose attention to detail and genuine care made a real difference. There was a minor hiccup during a coffee break, but these things happen — we’re all human — and it was handled gracefully and efficiently by Mohamed himself. Definitely planning to come back soon with the family. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, authenticity, and excellent service in one of Tunisia’s most iconic spots.

    At night you have to go to Sidi Bou Said or elsewhere to get any food.

    Room was very nice (Ottoman) The property provides an authentic atmosphere, great views, and a 15-minute walk to the main area of Sidi Bou Said.

    Where do I begin to describe the drive up the hill upon a grand adorable surprise! We did not imagine our boutique Dar La Menara would be a gem resting on the top of a hill… as the meaning for the property, truly a sunrise and sunset beacon upon Sidi Bou Said, Tunis, and The Mediterranean Ocean. It was as though the staff were patiently awaiting our arrival, big smiles and wide open arms as Samir, Wiem, and Zainab greeted us. Quickly we met Karim, completing the front line team, explaining the Dar, the amenities, and our glorious room. This was the end of our 16 day educational trip on Tunisia, its culture and rich history of Islam and how Tunis was and continues to be the leader in helping Africa shine bright! Breakfast was simply adorable, just as perfect as the hotel. Every morning you are greeted with those same true smiles from Samir, Wiem, and Zainab. You have so many options to sit just about anywhere to enjoy the skyline views while you have your coffee, tea, juice, and breakfast. Whether the room, the breakfast solarium, or down by the heavenly swimming pool. Eventually you will find Mohammad running around with the other staff ensuring everything is in tip top condition!!! And of course, the chief Murad is working hard to make sure everything is business as usual, will always make time for good conversation, and just like his team, he has plenty of valuable information to share about Tunis. Must not forget to mention the amenities… the cleanliness is so comforting after a busy trip and many hot temperature days! The housekeeping staff such as Taouse always around to ensure your room was quickly tidied up within a blink of an eye, she is so quick and amazing! The local bus, and train are barely 7 minutes walking distance from the property. The transit system is old… but it works, it’s adorably affordable, and the passengers are all helpful to ensure you are going in the right direction!

    Don’t know that it was a dislike but it was Ramadan and we hadn’t booked ahead for any of the Iftar meals so didn’t get to try the restaurant. The one breakfast we had was really early and I think done as an accommodation for us so not fair to judge.

    The view from the rooms/balcony was unbelievable and the rooms themselves were also gorgeous. I also loved being able to pick them online. Also had an incredible Hammam experience. Highly recommended. Finally, the staff (especially Karim and the manager, Mohamed) was awesome. The door to our room got damaged by some freak winds and they not only relocated everything to another room immediately they comped us that night for the trouble. Truly first rate service across the board. Can’t imagine there is a better place, at least for us, in Sidi Bou Said, which was also a great location for us (after two nights in/near the Medina earlier in the trip).

    As a five star hotel, the breakfast was too simple and low quality. As there is only eight guest rooms, it would be much better to offer freshly prepared local breakfast such as grilled salad, tomato egg stew with fresh bread. Other than the breakfast, their spa can be nicer as this is their selling point. They offer Hammam for couples. However there is only one scrabbling table and one personnel in the hammam. So my partner and I had to wait in cold for 20 min or so while the other is being served. This had downgraded the experience a lot.

    The property is well managed, clean and stylish. The location is superb with nice overview of the bay, and mountains. It’s a bit outside the touristic village. So quieter during day and night.

    My stay at La Menara was nothing short of incredible! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism by their amazing staff, who went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. They even surprised me with a free upgrade, which was such a thoughtful and delightful touch. The highlight of my experience was staying in the Ottoman Room—it was absolutely extraordinary! Every detail of the decor exuded elegance, with intricate designs and luxurious touches that transported me to another time. The room was impeccably clean, spacious, and perfectly appointed View from Balcony is on the North / Western side, dominated by carthage landscape, but You only have to go to the side of the balcony to view a beautiful Lac / Bay of Tunis, with Boukornine mountain in the background. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a luxurious and memorable getaway!

    My stay at Hotel La Menara was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the peaceful ambiance, the exquisite decor, and the warm hospitality of the staff. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the hammam experience, which left us feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. The breakfast was another standout, offering a delightful spread that catered to all tastes. My only regret? Not booking more than one night! If you're planning a trip to Tunis, I highly recommend making Hotel La Menara a part of your journey. It’s a gem that should not be missed!
