Tunisia is filled with 5* rated hotels, with all the “bells & whistles” that often guide the Ministry of Tourism to accredit a location with their star level, whether 5*, 4* or whatever the case may be. With many years of continuous travel to Tunisia, as well as considerable feedback from our clients who stay in Tunisian hotels, our opinion is that most of these properties fall short when compared to international star ratings, most often because of service. All the “bells & whistles” are great, but at the end of a stay when a front desk person or bellman chases after a client for a $5.00 laundry bill, rather than asking “how was your stay”, it shows a lack of training from the management as to how such oversights should be handled.Dar el Marsa in La Marsa not only has the “bells & whistle’s” of a fine dining restaurant, beautifully designed rooms, attractive common areas and what is one of the best locations in Tunis, but the hotel’s staff exudes first class service from the time you enter the lobby and have your bags received, to the housekeeping staff, restaurant personnel and at the front desk. Good service is never an accident in such hotels, but rather, a result of training and standards directed from the top and led by example. Owner Skander Mestiri does just that! Whether discreetly walking around scanning everything, or warmly going up and greeting guests, Mestiri’s presence and standards for a 5* boutique property lead by example and are followed by the rank and file.We recently had twenty guests booked at Dar el Marsa and every one raved! This type of feedback is what one wants in a hotel and makes Dar el Marsa is a winner on the Tunis hotel scene!

It's one of the best hotels I ever stayed at. The room was impeccable. And the staff was the real highlight. Imed and Riadh at the front desk took such good care of us.The 360 restaurant was no different. Aymen and the whole staff were attentive to the slightest details. The meals were a delight and the jazz music just the cherry on top.

Stayed 2 nights at this hotel, beginning and end of my Tunisa trip. The hospitaly of all staff was great, rooms very nice, beds very very nice and great food to(European). The rooftop is a place you just don’t want to miss - the perfect place for a lunch. Be aware that rooms with sea view might be a bit noisy due to traffic - I don’t mind, but maybe you do.

We stayed at five 5* star hotels in Tunisia for 12 days. We are so glad Dar El Marsa was our last two nights there. The service is impeccable with staff being so nice and friendly. The reception check in was the smoothest, most welcoming greetings of all hotels. The rooftop restaurant and bar is very beautiful and the food was amazing. There is only one suite in the whole hotel and we booked this room. Has two balconies facing the ocean. The bed is so comfortable, it’s hard to get up. I must say the breakfast wasn’t the best compared to other places but the staff bends over backward to just please you so I must give them credit. You won’t regret staying here. It’s elegant and the dinner on the rooftop is quite amazing.
