This is a wonderful Tunisian dar. It’s right in the medina but with a walkable distance to reach the main sights in about ten minutes (you might take longer since you will find unexpected gems in the medina if you are curious enough to get in and have a look). Location is really safe for solo female travellers in a really nice area of the medina (taxis can drop you off 3 minutes away only). Tunisian hospitality starts right once you arrive at the airport with a really cool and professional taxi driver that is waiting for you (if you book the transfer). Once you arrive the staff welcomes with a genuine smile. Leila, Slim and Youssef where real hosts from the very beginning answering all your questions. Even the newest staff member was great! They can recommend places to eat from low budget to more upmarket and trendy as well as where to go. The building has a lovely decor and is full of tradition in every corner. The room was super clean and the shower/aircon perfect. The terrace has a wonderful sunset too!! Merci, I will stay her next time I visit Tunis.

The hotel is an absolute jewel box located a short walk from the medina. This was my first time visiting Tunis and the hotel was the perfect base to explore the city. The staff couldn't have been more helpful throughout, accommodating any queries, including taxi bookings, and serving an incredibly generous breakfast spread every morning. I also learnt that the author of the guidebook I took stayed at the hotel for a month when writing it! The room was very elegant with beautiful use of colour and a lovely outside area to relax and read. The rooftop area was another beautiful part of the hotel. It was inspiring to hear about the social enterprise initiatives undertaken by Dar Ben Gacem, which are a key draw to continue supporting the business. There are also a huge number of cultural events that take place there. I hope to visit again soon!

We are a family of three and we stayed for three nights. Dar Ben Gacem is easy to find. Just tell your taxi to stop at Pasha School and navigate the 150m-200m remaining journey on foot using Google Maps. It's not accessible by car and there is no parking nearby. Our room was comfortable and breakfast was good. The staff were very friendly and helpful and one of the guys, Slim, went above and beyond and let us use his Bolt account (cab-hailing app) as we could not register our Tunisian phone number for some reason. When the staff found out all three of us were planning to sleep on the king-sized bed they insisted we take another matress free of charge so we will be a bit more comfortable. Once we've checked in, the staff sent some welcome tea and biscuits to our room. Overall, we highly recommend Dar Ben Gacem.

I really liked this place. I wanted to stay in the historical place in the heart of Tunisian Medina, that's why I booked this hotel. Everything was amazing. I fell in love with interior, food and hospitality of staff. And I'd like to say thank a guy Youssef (I hope I wrote his name correctly), he helps with serving a breakfast and organize food workshops. He's the only person who spoke English really well and I could ask for help in English. It's really crucial as I don't speak French, so only Youssef helped to cope with everything. And I would like to mention the cleanliness, the room was very clean and cosy. Dar Ben Gacem is highly recommended!

Our stay at Dar Ben Garcem was simply wonderful. From the moment we were greeted by Rhouma to our final minutes talking to the owner, Leila Ben Garcem, we were impressed by the attentiveness and warmth of the staff. Our room was beautifully appointed in traditional decor and the Dar, after being meticulously renovated in 2019, is now cared for beautifully. Our bed was firm but comfortable; breakfasts were fulsome and fresh, and everything was assidulously cleaned. We particularly loved the rooftop terrace - it was just gorgeous. Particular thanks to Leila, Rhouma, Chedley & Yusuf. This is a hidden jewel in the medina!
