I had one of my worst experiences at this hotel, after reserved the rooms by phone and got the confirmation for our reservation the night shift receptionist simply denied our reservation saying that phone reservations do not count at this hotel!!, when asked to talk to the management to help us since we have already confirmed our reservation the rude, unpolite and unprofessional receptionist said " I am the management" he didn't want to do anything to help us since it was their fault, he refused to call the management for us or to give us their number, speaking in a very intense manner and trying to start a fight. I definitely don't recommend going to this hotel.

Don't go there, bad staff with bad attitude

اسوأ خدمة جربتها في حياتي، فندق سيئ وستاف مش محترم خاصة مدير المطعم، والأمن بيعاكس، الأكل بايت ده غير الغرف مليانة حشرات
لا انصح حد انه يجرب المكان ده

The worst service I have ever experienced in my life, a bad hotel, disrespectful staff, security is disrespectful, the food is poor and the rooms are full of insects.
I do not recommend anyone to try this place

Very bad experience

Nice hotel, clean and friendly staff. Perfect location off the Boulevard. I would definitely recommend. Breakfast could have been slightly better with options and variations. That’s because my appetite is bigger but it’s breakfast so not a biggie. I would definitely stay again! We enjoyed our time :)

Lovely jubbly

Location is very good which is the main reason I chose this hotel. Reasonably priced too. You are right near the Médina de Tunis. The hotel is located on a side street off Avenue Habib Bourguiba where there are many eateries. Small, basic but clean. Staff were pleasant and friendly. Room was fine. No frills but there was hot water, air conditioning, some complimentary toiletries and more. No water. Breakfast was adequate for this type of hotel. They had cereals, breads, pastries, local Tunisian foods. Not huge but enough to start the day. Coffee is from a machine. WIFI wasn't the best but this appears to be a common issue in Tunisia. When you go out, you are expected to leave your key at reception. Housekeeping was done fine but just a little more attention to detail needed, especially when hoovering or mopping the floors. For a 3-star hotel, it was fine.

Very good location.

Stayed at Tiba for a few days & the hotel was not what we expected based on the online pictures & for the price point. 

The location is excellent, just off the main thoroughfare, Avenue Habib Bourguiba, and a short walk to Bab Bhar, which is the gateway to the medina. 

There was some confusion about the tourist tax which the hotel clarified had changed & the 2 dinar charge they had a display about was for Tunisians & Marghrebis. 

The shower stand was hanging off the wall in the first room the hotel gave us, so they gave us another room on a higher floor. The frame was coming off the mirror in the bathroom & one of the reading lights was hanging off as if it had been broken. Same with the door knob to the wardrobe. 

The hair dryer in the bathroom worked intermittently on the first evening, and there was a smell of burning fuse. The back of the hairdryer also looked very rusty. Reported that it wasn't working to the person at reception the next day who said "everything is OK" though he didn't really understand what I was reporting. Spoke to another person at reception who said they didn't have a spare hairdryer. Predictably,  everything was not OK & the hairdryer did not work that evening.  

The room was a decent size & there was ample storage space but not enough hooks & hangers. In the bathroom there was only one hook for the towels. Toiletries are in small bottles rather than replenishable receptacles, so not great for the environment. 

The mattress was nice & firm but the pillows were way too high. There were quite a few mosquitoes in the room so it was hard to get a good night's sleep. 

When the cleaner cleaned the room on the second day we were there, they left a dirty shoe print in the bathroom which defeated the whole point of us requesting a room refresh. 

The tap at the sink was extremely stiff so it was next to impossible to adjust the temperature & felt like you were breaking the tap when turning it. The water was quite scalding if you didn't have the strength to wrestle with the tap! 

Neither of the rooms we were in had tea & coffee making facilities though the replacement room had a fridge. 

The breakfast didn't start on time at 7am in the morning & the selection is pretty limited. The cooked food, such as the eggs with veg & fried brik shaped like spring rolls, were bland. There were only oranges & no other fruit. Juices were cordial rather than freshly squeezed. There was cereal on offer, but no milk. We did enjoy the crepe which we had on the last morning, as well as the halwa chamia. 

Overall, Tiba was a very average hotel, with many things not working as they should, & the only positive thing is the location. Do not be taken in by the pictures as it's not a sleek business hotel. Just a basic hotel which can't get even the basics right. 

Best thing about the hotel is the location!

A very decent hotel with very friendly and helpful staff in reception.

The location is very good in proximity to everything.
I stayed there between flights, and the journey from the airport was roughly 15 minutes.

The front desk was very, very helpful.

The room is basic, no kettele, no minibar fridge, but it was clean.

The channels provided in the room are varied (no channels for children).

The bed was very comfortable, and the shower, although a bit narrow, the water flow was good.

The lifts were not working, so i had to use the stairs to get to my room or to the restaurant on the 4th floor.

The restaurant was big clean with a huge balcony. 
The food was good.

I would definitely recommend this hotel to travellers transiting in Tunis or waiting for a flight.

A very good basic hotel 

Hotel Tiba (Tunis)
(room 209)

+Good location, by the main shopping street with restaurants, 6min walk to medina, 5min walk to supermarket Monoprix.

-Bad Wi-fi, suddently stopped working, not good if you plan to work with your laptop.
-No refrigerator in the room.
-No iron in the room (don't know if reception have it).
-Some irritating sound every minute, at night too, like someone was hammering the wall.
-Breakfast on 4th floor starts at 07:00, but the door opened at 07:15 but not all food was out yet (see my pictures when all food was out).
-Security guy by the entrance could at least look happy and smile to customers or say hi.

+/-
It cost 4 TND per night for the "tourist tax".

I travel a lot as you can see my reviews and I'm not picky, the hotels don't need to do much to get customers satisfied, but instead they not professional.

Good location but just OK

I stayed at this hotel after my stay at the Carlton Hotel in Tunis was cancelled at the last minute. The hotel was reasonable quality, the rooms well appointed if slightly small. It was immaculately clean, and the reception staff were really helpful. My room had a small balcony overlooking the street the hotel is on, although there was no chair on the balcony. It did have a small stool in the room that was easy to carry on to the balcony. The dining room for breakfast was on the 4th floor, as was my room. Breakfast was not in a european style, but it was OK. The street the hotel is on is just off the main street, and was quiet. There was no function room to cause a disturbance.
Generally a hotel to be recommended.

Good Hotel

My wife and I stayed 6 hours only because we could not find available lodging close to the airport at a somewhat reasonable price point.  Next time will just go to the Marriott.

Arrived and security that you normally find at the door in Tunis was disinterested and was there but not really doing much

Breakfast starts at 07.00.  This is too late.  We requested before arriving if they could make something available.  No answer.  After arrival we again asked and answer was "not possible as Breakfast staff arrives at 6.30 and thus would not be possible.  We asked about a cup of coffee? "Not possible".

We arrived at midnight and the room was probably 90 degrees.  We did turn on the a/c and it did cool the room down after about a half hour.  

Bed.  The hardest bed I have laid in at a hotel ever.  The pillow was no different. Beyond firm into the realm of a rock with some foam around it.  The duvet?  There was none.  Only a top sheet.  Again never seen this before in a hotel.  I guess they figure is 100 degrees (35) in the room you don't need a duvet. 

There is no water in the room and I wouldn't advise drinking from the tap.  There was no kettle or coffee maker. I think having no water in a room that was already 35 degrees (90 Fahrenheit) is really poor customer service.  

The front door had no latch or security lock,  so wasn't sure if it actually locked until we walkd out and tried to turn the handle from the outside and access it.  It auto locks just know this if you chose this lodging. 

The best part of the stay was leaving. 
Cost about 10 TND to get to the hotel from the airport on the Bolt app.

Don't recommend, won't stay again. 

I would give it a 5 out of 10.  

Better options 

Excellent location, clean, comfortable room, even if there is no mini bar. A good three star hotel with good value for money, I was alone the night without having breakfast
   I was passing through for a couple of days on a trip to Africa
