Myself and my friend went to Tunisia for a weeks break and myself having been their 5 yrs previous was not ecxpecting much but i was so wrong, i can honestly say the hotel was excellent, the food was great the rooms were clean the staff were friendly and shops, coffee restaurants etc were with in walking distance. The only fault i have about the place is that the carpeting and decor in the corridors was worn and tacky but this was in the process of being rectified when we were departing. restaurant is very efficently run and a goodd choice...

Excellent value, but for me the wrong location.
from SussexTraveller88
The Marhaba is a 3 star hotel situated about two miles out of the centre of the city of Sousse and is adjacent to a beautiful sandy beach. Built in 1964, the hotel has a rather tired look and would benefit from refurbishment. There are over four hundred bedrooms arranged over four floors and in two wings, one much longer than the other having been extended, and which are on either side of the reception area. Each wing has just one lift, and if you are in the longest one as we were your bedroom can be quite a long walk from it. The...

from treeofwhittlesey
Havin stayed a marhaba over the new year im glad i did so before reading other reviews.As we had great food and travelling with 3 teenagers i thought the food would be an issue but they did not complain once.We stayed all inclusive so ate 3 times a day and each time you could get different things, its up to you what combination of food you put on your plate not the hotels!! The bar staff was abit reluctent to smile on ocassions but after speaking to them and making friends with them they were a great laugh and they are only human after...

Not worth the money.
from Patsi7
This hotel needs a complete makeover. It states it is a 3 star well I wouldn't rate it 1 star. Whilst the reception area is nice and the lounge area, you wait until you see the rooms they are really dated, cracked tiles, stained carpets horrible, the only good thing was that you had clean bed linen and towels everyday. Along the coridoor to the room there was a smashed window they had left half the glass in the window which is dangerous if you have children, it was like it all the time we were there. The food at the hotel was a...

you get what you pay for!!
from GamlingayAlice1953
Having booked a New Year week to unwind and relax we had though we were going to a 4-star hotel. The information on the internet site is very misleading as it tells you it is part of a 3-hotel complex: Marhaba Beach (very nice), Marhaba Club (equally as nice) and limping along behind Marhaba Hotel - very shabby and only 3-star but this is not apparent when looking at the website and consequently booking. The rooms were very shabby although the bed linen and towels were clean. The food left a lot to be desired and was nearly always cold. The...

One of the worst hotels I've stayed in
from lils1234
Arrived on 23rd December and wanted to come home on the 24th. The room was very basic and cold with cracked tiles on the floor and walls. The food was awful and the staff didn't do a good job. The first nights entertainmnet was dreadful. The porter was very rude if you didn't give him a tip. All in all it was an awful atmosphere. Our rep, Mary, was brilliant and moved us to the Marhaba Beach Hotel which was wonderful and what a difference - worlds apart. The Marhaba Hotel is supposed to be 3 star but it should be a 1 star in my opinion....

Marhaba Hotel not to be confused with Marhaba Club
from donnaandshell
Although the Marhaba Club and Marhaba Hotel are part of the same complex and are under the same name on trip advisor, they are actually different hotels. We stayed at the Marhaba Hotel which is the Club's 3 star hotel (the club being a 4 star). It's a little bit like the Marhaba Clubs poor relative! There was nothing in particular wrong with the Marhaba Hotel, the communal areas were very smartly done. The rooms however and indoor pool were quite shabby and could have done with a bit of an update. The hot water was a bit of a...

Hotel Marhaba - part of Marhaba complex
from ICTGirl
We have just got back from a two week holiday to the Hotel Marhaba which ispart of a group of hotels in Sousse, it is next to the Marhaba Club. We were accommodated in a small block of rooms right next to the beach away form the main hotel, this was great, quiet and with great sea views. The weather was very hot, the sea and beach were amazing and the staff were all friendly and helpful. The animation team worked hard toentertain and my children enjoyed the use of three pools. The food was good, lots to chose fromand we always...
