Dar Hassine Allani

The host have been more than friendly during our stay. We arrived late and were warmly welcomed. When we had an accident the Lady host was alway at our side, organizing everything and being with us in hospital all the time. This was fabulous and we could feel the warmth of this people. A good house, with good food and good bed you can find at many places in the world. A hotel were you find people with a pure heart and helping you 100% when you feel lost is not easy to find. Here we found this wonderful place. Thank you. Our best wished will always be with you.

A traditional house in the middle of the city really feels like you are staying in a museum. Hotel staffs were really freely and accommodating even though my booking was last minute. The large rooftop had an amazing view where one can enjoy tea.

We decided to take an overnight trip from Hammamet to Kairouan and were fascinated by the idea of staying overnight in a B&B right in the centre of the old medina. We hade a bit of trouble finding our way with our car - the streets in the medina were definitely not built for cars, but after calling the hostess she turned up and escorted us to their private garage, which they evacuated for us to use! The house is on three floors plus a wonderful roof terrasse with 360 degrees view of the roofs of Kairouan. All guest rooms are on the ground floor and opening up to a lovely atrium with plants and furniture for the afternoon get-together. We stayed in the Suite des filles (the girls' suite), which has a private bathroom/WC en suite and two impressive beds with lace curtains and an ample supply of blanket covers in various designs and materials. After a quiet night's sleep we entered the first floor breakfast room, where the hostess had laid out a nice breakfast Tunisian/continental style ++ (it turned out we were the only guests in the house that day). Having fortified ourselves on local bread and pastries, we ventured into the labyrinth of the medina and we were fortunate enough to find a local gentleman who took us on an free and improvised tour of the various mosques and other sights. After about one hour we thanked him with a 20 TD tip, which he obviously thought was more than generous... Plus remarks: The house is a veritable museum, with lots of old furniture, carpets and historical mementos. Central and peaceful location. The hostess speaks French and English. Minus points: We were not given a house key, and we had to persuade the hostess to allow us to stay out till 22:30! Some of the light fixtures were not functioning, and the bathroom could use a makeover. ALERT: If you are arriving by car, make sure you contact the hostess in advance and arrange to be met at their garage (three minutes walk from the house)! Otherwise you might spend a lot of time trying to find the place, if you don't get stuck in a narrow cul-de-sac...

Very friendly people on site and beautiful house, large rooms, nice rooftop and awesome breakfast!

Beautiful hotel in the middle of the Medina.
