About Dar El Medina

There’s no hotel like this in Tunis. Not only is it an elegant 12-room boutique in a gorgeous traditional house, but it’s right in the medina - Tunis’ Unesco-listed inner city, founded by the Arabs in the 8th century. And it's been in the same family since it was built in 1825. Whitewashed and tiled, with latticed windows, the many-leveled mansion is a surprise after the narrow street, with inner courtyards providing light, space and shade.

Interiors mix Eastern richness and modern geometry. Rooms are all different, decorated in sand and neutral colors, with deep rich textiles and modernist paintings. On the ground floor are several salons, which include the converted master bedroom (all stucco, domes and Italian decorative painting) and the former kitchen, now with rush-mat seating on raised platforms. There’s also a terrace with city views over medina rooftops – a wonderful place to be at the time of the call to prayer.

PLEASE NOTE
THE BALANCE OF THE FIRST NIGHT WILL BE CHARGED BEFORE THE ARRIVAL, IF THE CHARGE WON'T BE POSSIBLE THE RESERVATION WILL BE CANCELED.
