Our stay at Sidi Bou Fares was a mixed experience. The hotel is set in a charming area reminiscent of traditional Tunisia, and the courtyard offers a beautiful, tranquil space. The room was clean and attractively decorated, though not luxurious. However, the experience was marred by the uncomfortable bedding, inadequacy of the bathroom, and unexpectedly high costs. Overall, it may suit those looking for an authentic experience but wasn’t what we had hoped for.

This hotel is a charming oasis tucked away from the busy tourist street in Sidi Bou Said. The rooms are clean, tastefully decorated, and comfortable, but can be a bit cramped. The service is helpful, and breakfast is served in a lovely courtyard. However, be prepared for some quirks in the room layout and limited breakfast choices.

The hotel is a charming little oasis just off the main street in Sidi Bou Said, with clean and beautifully decorated rooms.

I spent two nights in the charming town of Sidi Bou Said, and although the hotel room was quite tight and the bathroom was very small, the location and cleanliness made it a good deal. While the staff was helpful, I expected better maintenance, as light bulbs were out during my stay. For the price, it’s worth staying a night or two, especially considering the quiet surroundings and lovely local dining options nearby.

I recently stayed at Hotel Sidi Bou Fares, which is set in the beautiful town of Sidi Bou Said. While the location is fantastic and the setting charming, the rooms leave a lot to be desired in terms of comfort and size. The staff was helpful, but the overall value for the price paid was not ideal. It’s worth considering other options if you’re looking for a more comfortable stay.
