    Hotel has a very good location, and not in a very trafficed area. Unfortunetely there was a lot of disturbing noice from the cats and dogs fighting outside at night.

    Very cute and personal Hotel! Staff was very friendly and helpfull. Perfect Hotel to stay at for a few days, to explore Sidi Bousaid and Chartage.

    Nothing really. It was great.

    A delightfully calm and unpretentious place which was beautifully decorated and nice finishing touches such as the soap and nice smelling towels. Fabulous roof top and sea view from my window. Great breakfast too.

    A bit tricky to find, and you must walk the last bit. Suggest finding on Google Maps to get there (link in the app is not quite accurate). Try to get an upstairs room, they are much nicer than the downstairs ones.

    Very clean and lovely guest house. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Nice rooftop terrace with great views.

    The common parts deserve a deep cleaning (rooftop, swimming pool, internal court with couches, etc.) and must be cleaned regularly! The swimming pool is disgusting with pigeons and lots of dirt in it, which is a pity. Also rooms cleaning is very superficial and should be improved. Very expensive.

    The view from the rooftop is beautiful and the location is great, just behind the center of Sidi Bou Said. Rooms are small but there is everything you need. Big and delicious breakast!

    All good My only issue is that I booked a taxi via the lady who runs the property to La Marsa about a km and she said it was 30 Dinar I foolishly trusted her The driver took the 30 Dn but we noticed it should have been 8 according to his meter and we’ve since found out 10 would face germ generous A bit disappointing that we were taken advantage of The actual accommodation is fab

    The room was lovely and well appointed set across two floors Toiletries provided and a comfy V modern decor and style House is a traditional style with open courtyard in the centre v beautiful The hot tub / plunge oool on the roof was lovejy to cool in and sun beds were great A short walk to the main area with shops & restaurants A very beautiful area to visit Breakfast was served in the courtyard a fruit platter yogurts & pastries were delicious

    We had to wake up a bit earlier on day 2 (around 7:30) and we were surprised to see that the breakfast was not ready at all, we had to wait and what we got was quite basic compared to the breakfast on the day before. Also, the welcoming is quite basic, it looks like the place lacks a manager.

    The cleaning in the room could be a bit better and the air conditioning, even if working, needs a renovation.

    It can be hard to find a parking space close to the hotel and access to the hotel can be problematic, especially with heavy baggage or low mobility.

    Beautiful views, clean room and helpful staff. The breakfast was good.

    They say it’s close to the beach, but it’s on a hill top, so getting to the beach requires to walk down and climb back toooons of stairs on a path not that close to the hotel. Other than that is confortable.

    It’s one of the few roof tops we saw with a jacuzzi.

    Disappointment to No Control of Other Guest Behavior

    The road is small to go to the hotel but it is not the hotel's fault. However, my biggest disappointment about the hotel was when I went to the roof top pool, there were 2 French females nude sunbathing and I saw their bare body. As Tunisia is a predominantly muslim country (I am half Tunisian), they don't respect our law that prohibits nudity nor the majority of the muslim community here. I am staying in Europe and we need to follow the law there especially in France where any sign of religious clothing are prohibited. When I come back to Tunisia to bring my wife to visit there, I was shocked as why this happen as nudity in public is a criminal offence here. Understandably that Tunis is a little bit different but not to that extend. When I express this to the staff at the hotel, they were scared to say anything to the 2 ladies. Then I confronted them myself and tell them that this is a criminal offence, they got really offended and were very mad to the staff telling her that I bothered their sunbathing session. The staff just keep quiet while the 2 ladies keep telling her their feeling about me because I ask them to respect our country's law. They keep on pushing the agenda of me disturb their peace. I guess they want me and my wife to be kick out of the hotel. Upon failing to do so as the staff didn't say or do anything, they went to their room very annoyed. A reminder to the hotel, I know there's a huge sentiment that foreigner has more money than the local (not always true as there are many Tunisian that either working in Europe making money same as the European or Tunisian that generally has money). However, that doesnt permit the foreigner to do whatever they want and disrespect our country. They need to follow the Tunisian law to have the balance between the local and foreigner. We are people of Culture and Tradition.

    Dar Fatma care taker was nice and we have a comfortable stay. The room match the expectation of the price. The location was amazing as it is in the centre of the old town sidi bou said. Has a lot of restaurant around.

    If you plan to explore Sidi Boussaid - this is your perfect address! With only a few rooms Dar Fatma is a very cozy private hotel where one is only few steps away from the local market in Sidi Boussaid. It has great views, very properly furnished, with Tunisian charme, and it is very well looked after. The staff provided information regarding Sidi Boussaid, which was helpful. Personally I appreciated a lot the acceptance of the owner of the hotel regarding the duration changes of my stay, although it was within the last 48h.
