Our stay at El Patio Courtyard House was truly exceptional and a highlight of our time in Tunisia. Ahmed was an amazing host—warm, attentive, and incredibly responsive from start to finish. We arrived very late, and he personally waited up to make sure we arrived safely and were comfortable, which immediately made us feel welcomed and cared for. The breakfast was amazing—fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared. It set the tone for each day and added to the overall experience of the stay. The vibe of the house was exactly what we were hoping for in Tunisia: authentic, peaceful, and full of character. The space was super clean, very private, and beautifully maintained. Being located in the heart of the city made everything incredibly convenient, with easy access to local sights, food, and culture—yet the house itself felt like a quiet retreat. If you’re looking for a place that combines comfort, authenticity, and outstanding hospitality, El Patio Courtyard House is it. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Tunisia.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Ahmed was brilliant and even brought us breakfast the evening before as he knew we had to be up early for our flight home the next morning.

Très agréable maison d'hôtes (3 chambres) au cœur de la médina. Belle décoration. Ahmed est très prévenant pour le bon déroulement du séjour. Très bon petit déjeuner pris dans la cour intérieure. Une très bonne adresse !

The horel manager Ahmed was very helpful and arranged transport to and from the airport. He was friendly and promptly addressed any questions we had. The breakfast every morning was wonderful. The hotel is beautifully decorated and comfortable.

Amazing hotel. Don’t let the neighborhood scare you. Super friendly people. The room, food, ac, shower, everything fabulous. Ahmed was so friendly and helpful. So close to marketplace can spend hours walking. I’ve stayed in nice places around world. Excellent property.

Tres bel hotel traditionnel avec un emplacement ideal. Chambres confortables et bon petit-déjeuner. Mais le meilleur reste l'accueil d'Ahmed qui est aux petits soins pour les voyageurs, toujours avec le sourire

Fantastic little hotel w wonderful staff and nice breakfast. Ahmed was amazing. Surrounding area was really rough: dirty, rundown, and not very “médina” like I’ve seen all over the Middle East and North Africa. But little hotel was great.

It os a nice place with an authentic north African interior decore in the old part of city, Medina. Cars can not reach the hotel door and you need to walk about 5 min to get a taxi. In the area tgere are not many option fir dining, specially in the evening. Only one of staff speaks English, so communication can be difficult at times if you do not speakFrenchor Arabic.

Well the place was quite nice, close to the medina. Called for airport transport ahead of time, but we arrived no one was there. So that was a hassle since we arrived quite late. But all in all we had a nice stay and staff was quite friendly.

Jag och min fru har stannat vid det här huset ett par dagar.det var fantastiskt och frukost var good.rummet var rent och bekvämt. Jag rekommenderar att besöka det hotellet.

Great place, need to walk to it from main road. Yummy free breakfast, clean, safe, laundry, pleasant staff, close to zeytunia mosque and souk and walkable to downtown. A true tunis experience

Tout était parfait. Chaleureux acceuil de M. Ahmed, toujours souriant, établissement et chambre très propre, excellent et gros petit déjeuner. Et quel décor!

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce bel hôtel au coeur de la Médina. L'accueil est parfait , le lieu est charmant, les petits déjeuners copieux et bons.

Lovely interiors, fantastic host and chef.

Amazing property, fantastic team, super clean and impressive Arabian design. Loved it since the day one. Thank you.

We stayed for almost a week at El Patio and it was wonderful. From the arrival lemonade to the large and tasty breakfasts, everything was top notch. Our host, Ahmed, was fantastic. Friendly, knowledgeable, and able to help us with everything. The whole team was kind and very professional. The hotel itself was small (3 rooms), traditional and very comfortable, located on one of the principal streets of the Medina. As part of our itinerary, we moved to another hotel (5*, very chic) in Carthage for the second part of our holiday and, honestly, the service (and breakfasts!) at El Patio were much better than the second, more expensive hotel. We loved El Patio and would recommend it to anyone looking for a calm guesthouse in the Medina.

Really enjoyed staff excellent

The location in the Medina was wonderful. Staff, particularly Ahmed, was excellent and very helpful.

A unique experience. You are in the Medina and can walk in a straight enough line to the centre and the more famous souks. The only draw back is you are the Medina so car access is difficult so you might have to walk in and out with your baggage. We had back packs so no issue.

I spent two weeks in Tunisia and this was, by far, my favorite accommodation. The guest house is beautiful- authentic and intricate decor. The staff was beyond accommodating- we got in late and they made us a lunch (as we missed the included breakfast). The food was so delicious and they made sure that whenever we sat in the atrium we had water and lemonade. The rooms were spacious, great water pressure, and comfortable beds. Super safe- staff on call 24/7 to greet you at the door. Great communication and recommendations for the are. Would stay again X 10000
