Great location
This historic hotel, boasting a few centuries of respectable heritage, enjoys a prime location adjacent to the French gate, the heart of Tunis. While the room's small size slightly compromised comfort, its proximity to high traffic areas posed a challenge for my asthma (perhaps I should have kept the windows closed). A notable highlight was the courteous staff, who kindly provided us with umbrellas when raining.

Fantastic Stay.
Very Nice Hotel. The Royal Victoria is a very nice hotel just outside the Tunis Medina. The hotel is showing some wear but perfectly acceptable accommodations. The staff are amazing, from Omar and Hassan at the front desk to the ladies managing the kitchen at breakfast. All very accommodating to ensure your stay is perfect. My only complaints: (1) the air conditioning in out suite did not cool the room. Not sure it was working. Notified staff but no improvement. And (2) the WiFi is spotty. We stayed in one of the suites at the end of the hall, and the WiFi rarely connected.
