财产 — Princesse
The Princesse is a dependable, no-fuss 3-star in the centre of Tunis’s Ville Nouvelle. Its lobby feels practical rather than plush—tiled floors, a small reception desk, a seating area with worn armchairs—but the staff are genuinely helpful. The real USP is location: five minutes walk from the main train station (Tunis Ville) and a short stroll to Avenue Habib Bourguiba. It suits travellers who want a clean, functional base for exploring the city, not a design hotel or a resort.
Tunis编年史
Tunis was founded by the Berbers in the 4th century BCE, expanded by the Phoenicians, and became a key city under the Aghlabids and then the Hafsid dynasty. The French Protectorate (1881–1956) carved out the Ville Nouvelle: wide boulevards, art nouveau and neo-Moorish buildings. Today, the medina (a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1979) sits as a dense, working labyrinth of souks and mosques, while the modern city mixes French-colonial architecture with contemporary cafes and a young, cosmopolitan energy.
参观的最佳时间
Tunis完整指南 →最佳月
April–May and October–November: mild temperatures (20–25°C), lower humidity, fewer tourists than peak summer. Good for walking the medina and exploring the suburbs without the June–August heat.
峰会 / 节日 Surge
July–August: high season hits with Mediterranean beach tourism. Temperatures often top 35°C. Hotel prices in Tunis rise by about 20–30% from the spring average. The Carthage Film Festival (October) and the International Festival of Carthage (July–August) add to demand.
预算肩部季节
September and late October: temperatures stay warm (around 28°C in September, dropping to 22°C by late October) but crowds thin out. Hotels drop their summer rates. Good for seeing the city without the July–August crunch.
天气 & 包装
June in Tunis is hot and dry, with occasional strong sirocco winds from the Sahara that can push the temperature above 40°C for a day or two. Pack breathable light clothes, a sun hat, and a thin scarf to cover your head if you visit the medina’s mosques.
城市简介 — Tunis
- The Tunis–Carthage Airport (TUN) has completed its terminal 2 renovation, speeding up check-in and baggage reclaim for international arrivals.
- A new BRT line along Avenue Habib Bourguiba opened in early 2026, cutting bus travel time from the city centre to the northern suburbs by 15 minutes.
- The medina’s main souk street, Rue des Forgerons, remains under pavement repair until September 2026—expect detours and some noise on weekdays.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Princesse, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 4 or 5 at the rear of the building (courtyard side) for the best balance of quiet and natural light. The lift stops at every floor, so upper floors avoid street-level disturbance without significant inconvenience.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floor 1 or facing 1 Rue du Jardin directly. Floor 1 is the lowest residential floor and picks up both street noise and lift motor hum. Front-facing rooms get traffic sound from the street, especially during morning and evening peak hours.
Best views
There is no notable scenic view at this address. The front overlooks a narrow city street with shops; the back sees a courtyard and neighbouring apartment blocks. Best you can do is a high floor rear room for a less obstructed view of the courtyard and some sky.
Quietest floors
Floors 4–6 (except noisy areas around the lift shaft) are quietest. Floor 6 has only a few rooms, so less foot traffic.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Rue du Jardin is moderate – mostly local traffic, occasional scooters, and pedestrian chatter. The lift is audible on adjacent rooms (thin walls common in older Tunis buildings). No bar or service entrance noise is reported, but street cleaners pass early morning (around 5 AM).
Insider tips
1. Park at Parking Place Barcelone (200 m, 15 TND/night) – book a spot ahead if arriving late, as it fills up. 2. Buy the 'Premium' Wi-Fi at reception (20 Mbps, 10 TND per 24h) if you need to stream or work – the free one is painfully slow. 3. Request a room on floor 4 or 5 at check-in for quieter sleep; mention it when booking if possible.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

货币与货币
Get a travel card →Tunisian Dinar, TND
Use ATMs for the best rates; avoid currency exchanges at the airport or tourist bureaux where rates are poor.
Cards accepted in most hotels, upscale restaurants, and larger shops, but cash is king in souks, small eateries, and for taxis.
Round up taxi fares or leave 5-10% in restaurants if service charge not included; small change for hotel porters.
吃,购物和旅行在一个预算
Cheap car hire →A small espresso or café noir from any local café costs about 0.8 TND.
A sandwich (e.g. lablabi or merguez) or couscous plate from a street-side eatery runs around 5-8 TND.
A main course in a simple restaurant in the medina or Bab el Khadra area is about 10-15 TND.
Souks around the medina and the Place de la Kasbah area are dense with cheap eats like brik, chorba, and grilled meats.
Monoprix and Géant are the main supermarket chains found in Tunis.
African market stalls along Rue Charles De Gaulle near Bab Saadoun offer budget clothing.
The metro light rail (TGM or Métro Léger) costs around 0.3 TND per ride; budget airport transfer via bus line 35 (cheap) or shared louage (slightly pricier).
Eat at local cafeterias (not tourist spots in the medina); buy bottled water from supermarkets not street stalls; negotiate in souks but start at half the first price.
Where to Eat
💡 Booking tip: For popular restaurants in Tunis, book at least a week ahead — especially for weekend evenings and during festival season.

Tunis-Carthage Airport → Place Barcelone (near Hotel Princesse)
💡 Bus stop is outside terminal 1 exit. Ask driver for 'Barcelone' stop. Then it's a 10-minute walk east along Avenue Habib Bourguiba to the hotel. Watch for pickpockets near the bus station.
Tunis Marine station → Place Barcelone station
💡 For Hotel Princesse, get off at Place Barcelone (not Tunis Marine). The hotel is a 2-minute walk from the station exit. Avoid riding during 08:00–09:00 and 17:00–18:00 — it's rammed. Buy a rechargeable card at any station kiosk.
Tunis Marine station → La Marsa
💡 Great for a day trip to the coast. Ride the TGM north from Tunis Marine to Sidi Bou Said (blue-and-white village) or La Marsa beach. The railway runs right along the sea — sit on the left for the view. Valid with the same rechargeable card.
Tunis-Carthage Airport → Hotel Princesse
💡 Ignore drivers offering fixed prices inside arrivals. Walk to the official taxi rank outside; meters start at 0.500 TND. Have small bills — drivers rarely have change for 20 TND notes.
