Beautiful and friendly hostel

Lovely hostel, great friendly staff who always greeted us with a smile, really nice breakfast. Really good location in the Medina, near all the sites but also quiet, and absolutely beautiful looking hostel with all the tiles. Rooftop terrace was a great bonus with lovely views of the city. 10/10.

This property is a real gem. Easy walk down to the Medina but very quiet and out of the way. A bit tricky to find but the amazing staff met me out on the street and showed me in. All staff members were exceptionally friendly and helpful and the breakfast was wonderful. I loved this property!

Dar Ya is conveniently located in Tunis’ medina with friendly and helpful staff, clean rooms and common areas, nice rooftop terrace, and great breakfast (both sweet and savoury options available). One downside was that the wifi was only available in the common courtyard, but not too big of a deal as there’s plenty of seating there.

Great value and friendly staff

The three staff I met at the hostel were incredibly friendly and helpful. They were always available and willing to provide information about places to eat and how to get around. I had a single room and it was beautifully decorated and very warm (perfect since it was cold outside). The breakfast was much bigger than I would expect at a hostel and was an incredible deal. Located in the heart of the Medina, Dar Ya Hostel was a great place to stay.

Perfect Medina Stay

Amazing! A ride from the airport was only 15€! All of the guys working at the front desk were so kind and friendly. Very clean rooms. Loved the simple breakfast in the morning. Great social area and also a rooftop available.

Beautiful house with warm welcome

This is a beautiful house, close to the heart of the Tunis medina. The room was very spacious and we enjoyed eating breakfast in the covered courtyard. The rooftop terrace has a good view but there were no tables or chairs. The host spoke good English and gave us excellent advice for finding local vegetarian food.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is called a hostel simply because of the shared toilets and shower rooms, but the rooms are individual rooms and are beautiful and clean. It is few minutes away from the main part of souk. I gave it a 4 because I don't like having to walk out of my bedroom to get to the toilet in the middle of the night.

Disappointing local, nice staff

The hotel is located in an area inaccessible by car so taxis will leave you outside of the medina and you have to take a walk through the confusing small streets to get there (not recommended at night). the room was very cramped and extremely hot with very dim light on the roof top with only a small fan. I could not sleep all night. the breakfast was ok and the staff were very nice and welcoming.

Plus qu'un hôtel c'est une auberge de jeunesse. Le personnel est adorable, ils font ce qu'ils peuvent . Le petit déjeuner très bien. Le décors très beau. Mais: en gros travaux, donc bruyant et poussièreux, les sanitaires sont peu nombreux et pas super engageants, aucune isolation phonique et autre. .. Après les travaux et en refaisant les toilettes du haut, et en en rajoutant aussi, ça sera sûrement mieux.

Sa localisation est parfaite, à quelques pas des commodités comme les supermarchés, les restaurants et autres commerces, ce qui rend les déplacements très pratiques. Le personnel est extrêmement sympathique et toujours prêt à aider, créant une ambiance chaleureuse et conviviale. En plus, le rapport qualité-prix est exceptionnel : des chambres confortables et bien entretenues pour un tarif vraiment raisonnable. Je le recommande sans hésiter !
