I visited from the UK for the 2nd time to Tunis. The location of the hotel is directly on the beach and in a nice quiet area. The first thing I noticed when I checked is the nice friendly smiling welcome staff, and of course the amazing smell in the air from the natural Jasmine flower. The scent from the Jasmine flower is unforgettable. The rooms are spacious and immaculate. Room service is at high standards. We ordered food at 11 pm and the variety on the menu to chose from was satisfying, the food was delivered quickly in a good quality and was delicious. The breakfast was amazing, a lot to chose from. Food was fresh and delicious. We ordered deserts at the bar and that was also was a good quality and the service was amazing. Everything in this hotel was well thought off and immaculate. I can not fault anything, it was an unforgettable experience which made me happy and valued as a guest. I will definitely go back soon.…

We stay at the residence every summer since 5 years now. The staff, the food, the pool, the beach are fabulous!! All the staff knows us even my baby goes there since birth and they treat us like family. Not only them but also the guys at the front door outside and the receptionist entrance are very very kind and always have a smile. The only negative thing: last week they changed the towels at the pool . There were always big green towels that covers the matress…now its a small white towel..not nice or hygienic. But: its one of the top 2 hotels in the capital!!! Will always come back!

I highly recommend staying at The Residence if you are looking for a five star experience in Tunis. The hotel was clean, luxurious and has plenty of room in the main area for guests to relax and enjoy. The on site Tunisian restaurant is also excellent. We had pre-scheduled a visit to a local winery via another tour company. The visit was cancelled at the last minute, but the hotel concierge - Safa - was able to arrange a private tour with a car and an English speaking guide. It was a unique and amazing experience, all arranged by Safa. If you are an English speaker, look for Safa. She is very helpful! All other staff were very helpful and polite as well.

Very friendly and helpful personnel, great swimming pool and great variety of food for breakfast. The access to the beach was easy and there is also a restaurant with a nice variety of food as well. The hotel is well located, only 30 min from the airport, and I only 3 minutes from a shopping center (alternative designers and great bars and restaurants).

This is a beautiful hotel with great views from just about every room. The location is good with lots of amenities. The staff are friendly and helpful. There are many restaurants to eat and drink at. Several in the building, one by the pool, and another on the beach. My only complaint is some aren't opened often enough (El Dar).

360° quality, efficient reactivity in case of a non conformity. There is a sort of cocoon effect and once admitted, there is a feeling to belong to a sort of select club. We slept well without any inconveniencies when the hotel has neighbours hotels which organise night fiesta
