Booking a hotel in Algeria or Tunisia from Belgium

Published on 14 November 2026 · Nreservi team

You live in Brussels, Liège, Antwerp or Charleroi and you are planning your next trip home to Algeria? Or you simply want a week of sunshine in Tunisia? From Belgium, the first trip is built around family, the second around the beach. Either way, you are booking a hotel from a distance, and a few checks save you unpleasant surprises. Here is how to go about it. One point first: we book your hotel in Algeria and Tunisia; we do not handle visa applications.

Before you book: paperwork depends on your passport

Entry rules depend on the passport you travel with, not on the country where you live. They change, so always check them with the official source before you buy your tickets.

  • Algeria, with a valid Algerian passport: in principle, you enter without a visa.
  • Belgian-Algerian dual nationals: specific rules apply. They are summarised on our Algeria visa page; check them afterwards with the consulate.
  • Belgian citizens without Algerian nationality: in principle, you need a visa obtained before you travel. In Belgium, applications go to the Consulate General of Algeria in Brussels, which also holds consular sessions in other cities, such as Liège.
  • Tunisia: the conditions also depend on your nationality. Before you go, read the "Travel documents" page of the Belgian Federal Public Service Foreign Affairs and contact Tunisia's diplomatic representation in Belgium.

If you apply for a visa, your hotel booking must match the rest of your file: the same dates as your ticket, the exact names of every traveller, and a booking for each stop of the trip. A booking does not guarantee that the visa will be issued. While your dates may still change, choose a refundable offer and note its cancellation deadline.

Algeria: start from your family's address

Work backwards: start from the town where your family lives, then pick the airport, and only then the hotel. A slightly cheaper ticket to Algiers can cost you hours on the road after landing. Our guide airports in Algeria: which one to choose gives the most convenient airport region by region.

  • Algiers and the surrounding area: see our hotels in Algiers. If you land late, a first night near Algiers airport saves you crossing the city at night.
  • The west: see our hotels in Oran.
  • The east: Constantine for the city of bridges and the Roman sites; Béjaïa for coastal Kabylie and the Soummam valley.

Many families add a few hotel nights to their stay with relatives: for a wedding, to put up relatives coming from another wilaya, or for a few days by the sea. Travelling with children? Read our tips for holidays in Algeria with children.

Tunisia: choosing your resort

If you want everything included, compare all-inclusive hotels in Tunisia or beach hotels. For your arrival, our guide airports in Tunisia: which one to choose helps you aim for the airport closest to your hotel. In winter, see winter holidays in Tunisia: which town?.

Booking and paying from Belgium

  1. Search for your hotel on our hotels page, with your dates and the number of travellers, children included.
  2. Compare the room, the board and the cancellation terms.
  3. Send your request: our team confirms with the hotel.
  4. Pay and receive your voucher, to show at reception.

Living abroad? You can also pay online by bank card, and your voucher is sent to you once payment is made. A relative in Algeria can also pay for you in dinars: BaridiMob, bank transfer or cash at our agency in Telemly, Algiers. The principle is explained in our guide to booking a hotel without a bank card.

Need several rooms at once, for instance for wedding guests? Send the city, the dates, the number of rooms and the travellers' names to our travel agency: our team will get back to you.

Couples and the family record book

In Algeria, hotels in principle ask Algerian couples sharing a room for a family record book (livret de famille). Foreigners are accepted without one in most hotels, except some state-run establishments. Details in hotels in Algeria and the family record book.

Frequently asked questions

Can I book from Belgium for my parents who live in Algeria? Yes. You book and pay online by card, and the voucher is issued in your parents' names. See booking a hotel for your parents.

I am Belgian and my spouse is Algerian: will the hotel accept us as a couple? Rules vary from one hotel to another. Bring your family record book or marriage certificate, and ask our team before you book.
