Numidien Hotel — Hotel in Dar El Beïda

The rooms were dingy. The receptionist was just not welcoming. Out of 4 nights, 3 nights the air conditioning was working on 29 degrees, although the reception was informed. And thrice the room was changed only to figure out that the air conditioning was the same on hot instead of on cold in all the rooms.||||Requires quite a lot of improvement to host Western travellers.||||On cleaning the room, not a single toilet paper in the bathroom was left. The toiletteries is of the lowest quality. ||||On asking for a kettle and some tea dips in the room, the room service brought 2 cups of cold tea and hot smelly milk and charged 500 Dz for that.||||Bathroom was dated with broken floor and not at all a 4 star hotel type that they boast about.||||Water at the restaurant was charged at 200 DZ for a litres bottle . We purchased 6 x 1.5 litres from a superstore at 159 DZ for all 6 bottles.||||Food at the restaurant spent over 4500 DZ for a steak and veal meat with cold vegetables, what a waste of money??||||We would never again stay at Numidien and recommend no western tourist should stay here.||||Breakfast was just minimal. Readymade huge croissant were placed with cold machine coffee. Scrambled eggs lay like cold cement!!!! ||||Flies over the food and no one was bothered. ||||Fruit was canned syrup fruits. Didn't touch any.||||Waiters don't...

WiFi was a mixed bag. Can videochat/watch youtube with stuttering most of the time, sometimes get periods of nothing. You get a code to unlock the WiFi but usually get given a 1 day code so if 5 of you are staying for 5 days, that’s 25x you have to keep asking for WiFi access, which can get tiresome - 2.5/5||Breakfast limited and not very hot, supplied microwave, no cereal. However, able to fill up enough to last the day and bonus of having bean-to-cup coffee machines and lovely pastries - 3/5||Rooms large and cleaned very well, toiletries provided, fairly quiet at night but plenty of construction work outside after 9am (so no lie-ins) and no views of city - 3/5||Free parking provided, perfect if you hire a car (even though it’s a very small car park) - 5/5||Staff all very attentive and courteous - 5/5||Location - middle of nowhere - you really do need a car in order to experience anything of the city -...

Honestly I had very bad experience on this hotel, the service was very poor, price was more expensive than its deserved, they write that the airport shuttle service, and they give me confirmation at reception, when all ppr work is done and payed for my room I back to collect my docs from reception and confirm the time to go to airport, they turn around and say that they only can call taxi for me, and sorry is missed understood, next day I found taxi on front of hotel he drop me to airport and charge me 4 time more than normal. I bought bottle of water they don’t know the price of it, charge is 4 times extra than normal, Men make mistake and he charge me 150dz which was cost 200dz, he comes knock on my door at 23:00 pm looking for 50dz I advise to be very careful with this hotel and specially when you...
