ダール エル ヤスミン チュニス

We had a wonderful stay at Dar El Yasmine! Helene and Mohammed were wonderful hosts from helping us with our taxi from the airport until our departure. The room was wonderful, quiet, even spacious. The entire grounds are lovely. The breakfasts were remarkable! Homemade jams and yogurt complimented delightful pastries and juices. We had a room with a small kitchen that allowed us to have an occasional meal there. As other reviews have noted, this spot isn’t in the most exciting neighborhood. Rather, this is in a residential area (with some nearby cafes and a grocery market in walking distance). We got between the B&B and the rest of Tunis via (very affordable) taxis using the Bolt app, which I recommend highly for getting around the city. With that in mind, the location was great since it’s about halfway between Carthage/Sidi Bou Said/beaches to the east and the medina/European city to the west. Rides were seldom more than 15 minutes and 5 USD/Euro. Moreover, Helene’s advice on what to see and how to visit all of Tunis’s fabulous sites was absolutely indispensable. We wouldn’t have had such a great trip without it. Next time I’m in Tunis, I’ll absolutely stay here.

As soon as our host opened the gate from the residential Tunisian street we found ourselves in a beautiful garden. Breakfast was charmingly served in that garden which included loquats from their tree. Our host even took us on a tour of newly renovated units featuring artwork by a local artist. Mohammed assisted us in setting up a tour to the Roman ruins at Dougga as well and made good suggestions for restaurants and assisted us with logistics. In Tunis, using “Bolt”, ( think Uber) helps with city transportation and he showed us how to download and use this system.

I had a very relaxing stay at Dar El Yasmine. The room was very comfortable and clean and had a terrace, breakfast each morning was delicious, the hosts Helene and Muhammad were very helpful and answered all my questions and provided recommendations for sights to see on the weekend and nice places to eat in. It is located between the the Lacs and La Marsa which was convenient for traveling to business meetings in different parts of the city. Finally, the wifi was very important to me as I was on a business trip and it never failed me. Helene and Muhammad made me feel at home and I really felt that Dar El Yasmine was a home away from home rather than a Guest House. .
