Iris Hotel & Thalasso

Time of year, reflected in price and I guess what we found. As maintenance work going on in hotel and a lot of local facilities closed. However, recommend the excursions and Karime the tour guide is excellent, knowledgeable and very helpful 😀

This hotel plays BANGING music all day every day. If you are looking for peace and quiet then this is not the hotel for you. This music is played outside at the pool area and also the lower level of the hotel where the dining room is. There is no one ever at the pool, the animation guy playing it is the only one dancing.... it's pure self gratification. It's really an unbearable noise. If you want peace and quiet you will not get it here, not even by escaping to your room. Food is mediocre, not at all hot, even when coming off the hot counter. I'm here with my sister and we have been hassled a lot in the hotel. I expect it off site, but please not on the complex. I've been here two days and have been asked the same questions ten times over ie, what's my name, where am I from, have I been to Tunisia before.... please leave me alone on site. This is no way a four star, probably was once, but it's faded grandeur makes it now a two star at best. I would definitely not recommend, even for a cheapie break away.

Absolutely waste of money. Rubbish Hotel. Stay away if possible, otherwise you definitely be disappointed. Only two things are good sofar. People at Reception and Restaurant didn't show any face yet. They have a warm pool if you are here in winter months. Rest of them are nothing like what they advertise in the site. Start with Reception. Such a laid back approach for everyone. 1 hour to check in. Couldn't check In, they gave us the keys to the room and asked us to come back later. If you are dealing with one person means you will have to finish them before you move on to the next guest, where as here they hopping between three four people. If you come from Europe then you'll be annoyed to see such a silly actions, so as in the Restaurant guests have no courtesy stand in the queue, easily jumping the ques and staff ignoring the ones who stood in the ques and encouraging que jumpers. Coming back to Reception. Hidden cost of 260 Dinars as Tax, I Never heard such a high Tax for a week stay. No WIFI IN THE ROOMS. WiFi only available in Reception area. You need to speak French or Arabic if not Communications are really difficult with the staff in here. No body speaks English. We were using Sign language. Everyday we need ask the cleaner to provide gel, shampoo and Towels if not they don't top up Automatically. HOT WATER ONLY AVAILABLE IN THE MORNING. At the Restaurant, most of the dishes were repeated . Never labelled food contents in English, big struggle if you are vegetarian. Fish weren't even scaled and Gutted properly before cooking. Orange is the only fruit available for the whole week. Hardly seen yogurt on the counter. It's a total disappointment. Hotel needs demolition and re build from scratch get all the bad practices away, if not Europeans please find somewhere else. It is not a 4 star Hotel. I Don't even give 1 star.

We was out there for one week beds are hard no heating have to move rooms 3 times and my wife was sexualy assaulted by staff hotel manger did not do anything or ring police when I asked till I started shouting food was bad we ended up eating out stay well away from this hotel
