Hôtel Sidi Salem le Bangalou — Hotel in Maghreb

Ordinary - but off-season so basically neglected - might come to life in summer. Some friendly staff - breakfast of bolied eggs, bread and jam - no tea - or tea-making facilities...not even a microwave oven in sight!! - only cater to coffee drinkers. Rooms very basic BUT has internet access so if you carry a laptop - the best feature of the place. Nice walk to town from here and the beaches were deserted which was nice for us - biggest criticism - the rubbish and litter that surrounds the walkway and beach areas of an otherwise pretty place.||Over-priced for off-season. Cramped - uncomfortable bed - but clean and good hot water supply.||Would recommend for business travellers (internet access) - can get good food in town - some entertainment - quiet. Ours was a leisure/business trip so it suited us - not the place for a family vacation but could be different in summer, especially if they do some clean-up of the gardens/pool and general surrounds etc.||The overall purpose was a visit to Bizerte - which we fell in love with - and will return...but will seek alternative...

I went from New York to Bizert. Hotel Sidi Salem is 10 minutes walk from downtown Bizerte and is located in front of a beach. which is rather deserted. I stayed there in December 2012 and January 2013 which is winter season in Tunisia and off season too.There are bunglow type rooms which are very clean. The breakfast is very simple which consists of coffee, boiled eggs,bread,croissant, butter and jam but no tea.There is a small refrigrator in the room too. The swimming pool is quite big but abonded. Perhaps will come to life in summer. The garden around swiming pool seems to be abondond too. The hotel staff is courtious and helpful. The internet is available in rooms which is an advantage if you are travelling with a laptop.The surroundings is very quiet. The price is good for convinient location and comfort. Mohammad Riadh,...
