Hotel Carlton - Tunis

not too bad for quick trip

Denne gæst havde ingen kommentarer.

There is free wi-fi on every floor, even the 5th where I stayed. It is located on Avenue Habib Bourghiba which is the main drag in Tunis and there are numerous cafes. It is close to the train stations and the Medina.

Good hotel, refurbised rooms very nice, rear of hotel is generally nice and quiet. Wifi very poor in room 216, reported 5 times and no action taken which was dissapointing. Was told 214 was very good but not in 216! (Fine in hotel corridor!)

I've inflated my ratings just a tad because I realized after I submitted my review for my previous stay, a week before, I had the 1s and 5s reversed in terms of which is a good and which is a bad score. This is a renovated hotel with clean, somewhat sparse but comfortable and adequate rooms, including the bathrooms. There's free wi-fi. The people who […] work there are very helpful. The breakfast buffet is on the meager side but adequate. The one thing that annoyed me, which I found at two other hotels in Tunisia, is that you have to plug the key into a slot when you come into the room in order for the electricity to go on. I understand that this saves energy, but it means that you can't count on your laptop or spare camera battery to recharge when you're out of the room! The location is fine, smack in the middle of Avenue Bourguiba, amid places for food, drink, and coffee, and an easy walk to the central Metro station, the TGM, the Porte de France, and the Medina. I can't tell you much about the English-speaking ability of the staff since I communicated in French, but I did hear one desk clerk speaking to a guest in English. Oh, and they cheerfully arranged for a staff member to drive me to the airport at half past midnight for my flight home, for a bit less than the cost of a cab and saving me from having to find and deal with a cab.

I enjoyed my stays at the Hotel Carlton at both ends of my Tunisia vacation. The rooms were small but adequate, clean, and modern, with good bathrooms. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The desk clerk and then the in-house repair guy were cheerful after I boneheadedly forgot to take my US-based surge protector off my power strip before plugging […] into the prong converter and blew out the circuit breaker. They also arranged a 12:30 AM drive to the airport for my flight home, with one of the staff driving me for a fee a little cheaper than cab fare. Wi-fi access was decent and free. The breakfast buffet was so-so, more meager than what I came across in the resort hotels in the desert towns that I visited. The location is great, right on Avenue Bouguiba, close to food, cafes, the Porte de France, and the Medina, and walking distance to the central Metro station and the TGM. I spoke with everyone in French so I can't give you a great idea of how well English is understood there, but I heard one desk clerk speaking to one customer in English one day. One note: evidently, hotels.com's business is handled in Tunisia via Expedia, because the record at the hotel showed me as an Expedia reservation. Læs mere

Hm.... We stayed for 3 days n at first we were happy to get a room with the balcony.... except that the balcony door didnt open, it was nice, great hotel. Locations terriffic.. People r nice, mornings good i highly recommen it!

Well satisfied with a 2-night stay here. Great central location and comfortable room. Breakfast reasonably good. Limited TV channels. Good value - though if you look around near the station you can find more budget-oriented hotels at lower prices, with lesser facilities.

Our stay at the Carlton was very nice. They have some new rooms and some old rooms, so try to ask for the new ones, as they've been recently renovated. This hotel was in easy walking distance to all the major sights around Tunis (which you should be able to see everything in 3 days). Wi-Fi was free, fast, and easy to get from our room (on the 1st floor). The […] breakfast was a little anemic but not bad: cereal, bread, cheese, salami, olives, etc. The overall condition of the hotel left some things to be desired but our room was very nice. It's not easy to find hotels in this class in Tunisia- either they're dumps (and cheap) or they're rather pricey 5-star tourist hotels. That middle rung is the missing link. The Carlton is in that middle rung and is therefore recommended. Læs mere

We really enjoyed a week at this lovely old hotel where we were upgraded to a suite at no extra charge. Although the hotel is right on the busiest street in Tunis the double-glazing completely shuts out the noise. There were one or two small problems in the bathroom because it had just been newly renovated - loose shower head etc. - but nothing to worry […] much about. It was all immaculately clean with fresh linen every day.The staff are lovely and extremely helpful, speaking French and English. Good breakfast buffet. A very useful tip - when returning to the airport, the hotel arranges a taxi service for 15 dinars, which saves haggling and worry. The location is midway between the medina, with its huge old souq, and the Tunis Marine train station where you get a little train to the Carthage stations which would save a fortune in taxi fares to Carthage. We found Tunisia to be very peaceful and welcoming - no need to worry about political disturbances as the country is now very calm. Læs mere

I have been many times to this hotel, although it is an old hotel, and needs a good refurbishing in the outside. The staff is magnificent, and make you want to go back again. breakfast is very poor. the rest, i have no complains, staff is always ready with a smile and to be of any help. For the rates you pay, it is perfect.

The location of the hotel is superb, right on the main street Av Habib Bourguiba of Tunis, opposite to Hotel Africa. Entrance is a bit small though and can be easily missed in the midst of those side walk cafe. Hotel has just been renovated, so everything clean and fresh. Staffs are friendly and helpful, can speak simple English. I think I got the honey […] moon room, because the wall outside my room is painted in red. It is only one block away from the St Vincent Cathedral, and gave me convienence to visit the church at 8am in the morning of my departure day. If looking for food nearby, suggest to go to the Medina and try the food at the cafe of Hotel Medina, because the resturant on the Av Habib Bourguiba is a bit over-priced, and you will be spotted by the local guys who will then approach you and annoy you with their tour guide service!

This was a pretty decent little hotel. Our room was brand new and comfortable. The desk staff was courteous and helpful. They took our bags up and scheduled a timely shuttle to the airport which was reliable and fixed-price. The street the hotel was located on was bustling with quite a few little cafes and restaurants, as well as plenty of foreign […] ers. Læs mere

Hotel Carlton is right on the main street in the middle of Tunis. The medina is 5 blocks away. Close by are restaurants and sidewalk cafes and grocery stores and everything else. Get a balcony room for best enjoyment.

XXEur for this small hotel is too expense except for the location. The bed was small and the bathroom just opposite the bed. I pefer a 5 star hotel facing the beach in hammamet less than xx Eur with half-board. I won't recommen this hotel.

Il n y'a que le nom de l hôtel qui fait rêver ... Accueil agréable ,les chambres sont propres et récemment refaites mais petites,personnels très accueillant . Seul le bruit la nuit dans la rue et la façade sont à améliorer Ha J avais oublie le petit déjeuner infect.

Très bien situé, hôtel simple et propre, à la façade témoignant des anciennes splendeurs, avec un accueil sympathique.

Confort minimal, mais très soigné. La chambre est entièrement rénovée, salle de douche et sanitaires impeccables, télévision neuve. L' éclairage est toutefois un peu insuffisant. Personnel agréable. Salle à manger et réception encore un peu vétustes. Bon rapport qualité- prix, sauf pour les services telephoniques ou les suppléments.

gutes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis gute Lage Zimmer modern und sauber Frühstück: mittelmäßig

Rapport qualité / prix acceptable. Grand avantage est sa situation en plein centre-ville.

sijainti on hyvä, aivan kaupungin keskustassa, mutta hotellin taso kehno. nukkavieru ja vanhentunut hotelli, jossa esim. suihku ei toimi kunnolla ja jossa aamupala on käsittämättömän huono. harvoja hyviä puolia on sijainti keskustassa sekä toimiva internet.

Hotel viellot au confort relatif, Aucun visiteur n'est admis autre part que dans le hall d'entrée. impossible de travailler avec des collaborateurs autre part que dans le hall.
