Mövenpick Sousse

Special thanks to Raslen, Mohammed Khalif and Rashid who all did an absolutely amazing job. Rashid was always ready to help and was always alert and assisting us. Mohammed Khalif, the security guy at the entrance always greeted us when he saw us with a smile on his face and was happy to help when we would need advice and help. Raslen was always happy to serve us and was always friendly and cheerful even though he worked in the scorching heat of the kitchen. Even whilst working he would always try to keep a friendly conversation going and keep the customers happy and made an effort to remember the customers by their faces. Many thanks to them all.

Great hotel, location, food and service. All is very clean and despite the hotel size you don't feel its crowded. Also, if with all the above you still want to be in shape, we really recommend fitness center and in particular Nour as a fitness instructor. She was very helpful, assisted us with exercises, suggested exercise programmes and even taught a bit of belly dance (well, my wife and daughter at least as i cant move that smoothly ;)). So go do yourself a big favour and exercise with Nour!

Amen and Nour from the gym and Adam on the pool made my vacation wonderful. They are great professionals, showed my how to do my exercises correctly and in same time they are so kind. Miss you and hope soon to come back again. Fully recommend to try the exercises with them

My charger and money were stolen from my room by the cleaners. Everyday money went missing from my room! I confronted the staff at reception and they gave my charger back but not the money that was taken.

Great experience in Tunisia, specially taking price in account. You can see that the hotel is new (relatively), since it was built in 2010. We came to the hotel early, like 6am. Although check in is at 3pm, we were given all inclusive bracelets and could use everything from the start and even checked in before 3pm. Also, although we were supposed to stay in a city view room, we were given a side sea view room, which was nice. It’s a regular room, clean and everything was working fine. Also, we checked out at noon and kept the bracelet until we went for the airport, which was almost midnight. From the beginning, from entering the hotel, you can see the beauty of it, since the hall, or lobby, is beautiful and you can even see a lot of Tunisian brides coming there to be photographed for the wedding photo book. It’s not a huge hotel, regarding surface that it is covering, but just about right. There are 3 pools (one with salt water) and the beach is near. Around the pools there are really a lot of people, so it’s kinda hard to find a sunbed, but the beach was never crowded, as you could always find free parasols and you could find sunbeds almost all the time. On the outside, you have 2 bars with 2 food stations, where you can get pizzas, which were great, sandwiches, pancakes, fries and ice cream, all of which are included in AI concept. You can get a bunch of other food, like burgers and salads, but it’s not AI. There is a main restaurant and 2 more restaurants included in the AI concept (Spanish restaurant Tapeo and Japanese restaurant Sentido), which you can visit every day for dinner. Our favorite was Japanese, sushi was great. Food at the main restaurant is nice, there is great variety of food, with some of the best being great choice of cheeses, freshly squeezed juices and also great bakery products like different breads, croissants and other. Also there are 3 more restaurants, Pumo (BBQ), Villa (all food) and the other part of Japanese restaurant, with show cooking - teppanyaki section, all of which are extra charge. And there is Aga caffe, alcohol free, serving great coffees and teas, some in AI concept, some extra charge. Great thing about the hotel is the fact that there is a 24h working bar at the Tapeo restaurant and there is also Chocolate hour at the same restaurant, every day from 5 to 6pm, with great chocolates and desserts. Also, there is a sports bar, with 4 TVs if there are different games that people would like to watch. On the downside, animation is literally nonexistent, for both adults and children. There was some live acoustic music in the evening and that’s it. For adults it’s not a problem, since we are not fans of aqua aerobic, beach volleyball and stuff like that, but it’s kinda sad that there is nothing for the kids in the evening and all of them are at the terrace, looking at phones. There is not one single slide for kids, although there is a children’s pool. At least a half hour of mini disco would be nice. Also, there are a lot of people that are not guests of the hotel, but come for a drink or come to the swimming pools. People are not the problem, but the waiters clearly make difference between guests and are much more helpful to the people coming from the outside and paying for stuff, since they regularly give them tips. So, if you want some normal, regular service you must tip them every day. Nonetheless, Movenpick hotel in Sousse still gets 5*
