Le Sultan

"This is my first review of Le Sultan for some time, although I have been here on many occasions. I was there for 10 days from 17 Dec. This is not the best time to visit the hotel if you want a quiet relaxing holiday as there is an excess of children running everywhere.(An accident waiting to happen in the restaurant. No parental control). That said, It was still an enjoyable stay. The staff were excellent and worked really hard during the special Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve. The animation team is friendly and helpful. They didn't push you into anything. The restaurant is still up to a good standard, and the choice is excellent. The waiter service is excellent. There is a lack of seating inside the hotel during the winter months, and the weather is not so good.. I will definitely be returning again during the summer months to enjoy what the hotel has to offer."

"I visited the hotel in December for Christmas and stayed for one week. The hotel is beautiful, well maintained, and very clean in the main areas. The rooms are spacious, and all staff members were exceptional. The food was great. What impressed me most was the effort made for Christmas, especially considering it’s a country that does not traditionally celebrate it. The Christmas Day seated meal was around six courses, and the entertainment during the meal was excellent. ** Overall, the entertainment throughout the stay was very good. However, one solo dance performance by a female dancer was not appropriate for children, which felt out of place in a family-oriented hotel. ** Although this is a family-focused hotel—and I’m usually not a fan of such hotels—this one truly won my heart. Areas for improvement: ** Lifts, cigarette bins, and bedroom bins need a proper deep clean. ** Vases, salt & pepper shakes need proper wet dusting. ** Corridor carpets need replacing, as they feel stiff and have a noticeable dusty smell. ** The man serving food outside from 3 p.m. requires food hygiene training, as he was handling money and preparing food without gloves or washing his hands. ** Shisha was not clearly explained as a paid service; prices should be displayed. ** Being asked to say your room number out loud at the bar on an all-inclusive package feels unsafe. ** The TV in the room could be slightly bigger. If these improvements are made, I would definitely return. Despite not usually choosing family-oriented hotels, I wouldn’t hesitate to give this one another try. I would recommend this hotel."

"My friend and I visited Le Sultan for seven nights in November, 2025. We had a fantastic week - here are our thoughts… ROOM - we had a large room each with a garden view. Shower was always hot and the bed was comfy. There was a decent sized balcony with a small airer to dry washing. The light on the balcony is centrally controlled and in the winter is only turned on every Saturday evening, so you couldn’t read outside. Same for the air conditioning… It was turned off for winter. The free safe was a bonus though and the fridge came in handy. The hotel is cutting down on plastic, so each afternoon a glass carafe of cold water is delivered to your room. These can also be picked up at the bar. POOL - it was too cold to go in, but the grounds are lovely and the padded cushion to go on the sunbed was appreciated. Beautiful view from the pool right onto the sea. FOOD - my friend and I are both vegetarian so we’re used to not having such a big choice. We ate well though. The omelettes cooked to order at breakfast were delicious as was the fresh pasta in the evening. We often took pizza and ice cream out to the pool at lunchtime. The desserts in particular were delicious. Often they look nice, but are mostly sugar free. Not here, they were all so good! The staff in the restaurant are lovely. Our helpful waiter, Sami had our table ready for us every morning and evening with our drinks waiting. We gave him a small tip at each meal which was really appreciated. So worth it for the incredible service… He even put fresh flowers on the table for us one morning. Between meals, there’s a small kiosk near the pool serving paninis and waffles. We only used it once as we were always full from the buffet restaurant! We didn’t use our al a carte voucher as neither of the two restaurant menus were particularly vegetarian friendly. ENTERTAINMENT - if there was any low point, I think it was this. Maybe it was the end of the season, but the acts weren’t great. The bar is lovely to sit in though and has comfortable chairs. AMBIENCE - at first we thought the hotel was empty as it was cloudy on our first day and there was genuinely not one person outside! When the sun shone, there were a few more folk around and we met some lovely people from Northern Ireland and Liverpool. Being quieter meant no queues for food or at the bar. Local Tunisian people do visit the hotel on a Saturday into Sunday, so it was slightly busier then. The staff on the front desk were so helpful and friendly and it was easy to change money. The stables are definitely worth a visit. The horses were very well cared for and the Shetland Pony was beautiful. AREA - the whole area around the hotel is a bit run down, but as we travelled around, we realised that a lot of the country is like that. You have to live in a rich nation to have recycling as a top priority and you do see blue plastic bags lying everywhere. There are taxis right outside which we used to go to Hammamet medina. They don’t have seatbelts, but are very cheap. If you walk straight on past the TUI Blue tennis courts and turn right, there’s a couple of small souvenir shops and a cafe. The owner of the first shop is great and the prices are good. There’s a cash machine outside reception. You are charged a fee even if you have a Monzo or Revolut card as it’s government controlled, but that also means the exchange rate is exactly the same whether you go to a posh bank or a little exchange kiosk. OVERVIEW - great hotel. Definitely on the high end scale of tourist hotels. Even our all inclusive band was fabric which made it posh according to people at the airport!! Would definitely recommend staying here."
