“Uneven”

Le Diplomat

Aug 15, 2006
2/2 found this review helpful

This was a strange experience. I stayed for nine nights and had the full range of experiences, from kind and helpful desk clerks to those who yelled at me to call the airport myself (I had, like about half the guests there, lost my luggage and had to taxi back to the airport at my own expense to retrieve it.) As opposed to the insinuations on the website, there was no internet available in the room, and the "Business Centre" consisted of two desks with pricey and iffy-internet connection. While the breakfast was lovely, there was nothing for a vegetarian to eat after breakfast (dinner was a set menu). My room was very large and attractive, with a gorgeous marble tub--and the toilet leaked sewage, and the towels smelt of must. Clearly, this hotel is a remnant of bygone grandness, and as such is a bit sad....but is very inexpensive and was a nice, if quirky, air-conditioned refuge from the insanity of Tunis. A feature that characterizes my whole time: breakfast was included in the price, and one could have breakfast in-room, also included in the price, by leaving the card out on one's door. Whether or not one would actually *get* the breakfast, or--if it was delivered--whether or not it would even remotely resemble what was ordered, was anyone's guess.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — reliable air conditioning and marble bathtub
    • Disliked — hostile staff (some); constant traffic noise; frayed electrical outlets
    • Tips/Secrets: — great place to base oneself for Tunis; otherwise, stay ourside the city!

“A great value.”

4/4 found this review helpful

Le Diplomat in Tunis is a bit far from the medina, and requires a slightly uncomfortable walk through a pretty colorful part of Tunis to get to the main section. A cab ride to the medine is about 1TD, so the location, while not perfect, isn't terrible. The decor is reminiscent of the 70's - yellows and golds, but the hotel is clean and the staff is friendly. We paid only 32 USD a night, and breakfast was included. The hotel is near the zoo and has a great movie channel in English, in case you can't sleep. The air conditioning doesn't work very well in the summer, but it keeps the room cool enough to sleep with just a sheet. Overall, a good budget choice.
