Top 10 La Gondole Hotels

As a five-star hotel, this price is really beautiful. The dissatisfaction is that the two single-bed rooms are not big beds but two small beds. This is suitable for families and for one person. It is not right, asking for a big bed to be pushed off, the pool gym service is not good, no need for bath towels, the room is generally good, compare the price of the surrounding five-star hotel is the best

Massive hotel with 618 rooms, fresh and sea water pools and its own beach. Stayed here for two nights at the end of a small-group tour of Tunisia. Friendly helpful staff. Large rooms with all mod cons. Huge choice of food at breakfast and (buffet) dinner.

My self and my sister spent a week at this hotel. The animation staff absolutely made our holiday - Dj Nino, Bebo, Mino, YoYo, MiMi and Alex. They spread happiness wherever they go and work relentlessly hard, and encourage friendships among guests despite language barriers. The beach is stunning with people ready to help you set up for a day of sunbathing. The pool is lovely with plenty of sunbeds - no need to reserve. My only criticism was the food become repetitive and was pretty dry. Would definitely return!

I would class this hotel in the same league as a royalton by name! It definitely is not. It’s a 5* but it’s really a 3* tops. I work remotely and there WiFi just does not accommodate I simply cannot work from it. There is no snack bar throughout the day you have to pay for it! We are all inclusive we have never been charged for food in an all inclusive EVER! Day 2 and we are very disappointed to say the least. No entertainment other than a singer on an evening. I do not usually complain but we are highly disappointed! Hotel is very clean and friendly staff but all in all it’s crap!

Visited Royal Salem is Sousse for a weeks break with my partner. From arrival we were welcomed by all the staff. The food was brilliant, plenty to choose from. The swimming pool and private beach were perfect. The evening entertainment was very enjoyable. The Animation team were very fun and get everyone involved. I would highly recommend this resort for all trips away. Next time we will most certainly bring our children. Perfect for any family holiday.

The hotel itself is a bit tired but the staff really are what makes it. They are attentive and jolly (one member of the bar staff was miserable the whole duration - might be in the wrong profession?!). The food is acceptable. It lacks seasoning and flavour but it does of course need to cater to as many palettes as possible. If you like flavour, take your own condiments (I hesrd the ketchup was rubbish but didn't try it perdonslly). The food is also a bit repetitive largely consisting of grilled meat (beef, turkey, quail) and fish, stewed lamb, chicken and beef, potatoes (mashed, sautéed), chips/fries, grilled vegetables (courgettes, carrots, squash, tomatoes, okra), pasta and pizza, soup. There was also a variety of different salads and bread (which always seemed stale to me). At breakfast there is no bacon! There are omelettes, fried and poached eggs cooked to order. The omelettes were delicious. There was also grilled vegetables, beans (not the baked beans us Brits know and love), grilled frankfurters, pancakes, pastries, fruit, yoghurt and museli, fresh juice and tea and coffees. Our waiter, Salah, was great. He kept us topped up with drinks and made sure we had everything we needed. He was always smiling and welcoming when he saw us head over to the tables and it made us feel like special guests to receive his superb service. The rooms are spacious, but despite requesting a double garden view room we were given a room overlooking the car park and two single beds pushed together. The pillows were not comfortable - a bit too hard and thick for me. Plenty of storage space but very few hangers. A wash and ironing service can be provided at additional cost. Tea and coffee making facilities are available but we didn't make use. The tea wasn't great so take your own teabags. The bathroom is huge, equipped with a bath and shower overhead. the shower was always warm but not high pressured, though did a good enough job for washing my hair and rinsing out sand, shampoo etc. Our bath didn't drain well and took a while so no showers in quick succession. The hairdryer in the bathroom is terrible - I never managed to fully dry my hair with it. Do take your own. There is a vanity table and mirror in the room but I found the lighting at night too dark to do my makeup. the bathroom was better lit. Drinks are ok. Beer is a 3% local and red wine a 13% local drop. The white wine tastes like vinegar so we avoided that after the first glass or two. Cocktails are strong but very sweet. They have Coca Cola and other local soft drinks poured from bottles so can be a little flat. All drinks are served in tiny glasses/paper cups, some people had taken their own (pint) glass out with them and the bar staff did fill them. The entertainment wasn't our cup of tea - karaoke, quiz, live music, drag show. unfortunately it was too chilly to sit outside so we were confined to drinking in the lobby where the entertainment was on, so we were largely subjected to

As a coastal tourist city in Tunisia, Sousse has low consumption. The hotel has free parking. There are police and security personnel at the entrance, and it feels like it is being guarded by layers. The hotel has a private beach, booked sea view rooms, directly facing the sea. But the room facilities are old. The hotel has three meals, and the buffet has many varieties, which is very good. Many elderly people in Europe come to live for a few months and feel like a European nursing home.
