Hotels in Tunis: Les Berges du Lac, the city centre or Gammarth?

Published on 12 November 2026 · Nreservi team

Along with Djerba, "فنادق تونس العاصمة" (hotels in Tunis) is the most searched hotel query in Arabic for Tunisia. People come to Tunis for paperwork, appointments, medical or professional, a conference or a family visit, and the right area depends on why you are travelling. Here are the four areas where the hotels we offer in the capital and on its northern coast are located, with a simple guide to choosing.

The city centre: everything on foot

Avenue Habib Bourguiba is the main street of Tunis: cafés, shops, government offices and the medina are all within walking distance. It is the most practical area if you have no car and your errands are in town.

  • [El Mouradi Hotel Africa](/en/hotel-tunisie/el-mouradi-africa-tunis), known to everyone as the Hotel Africa: a 5-star hotel at 50 Avenue Habib Bourguiba, whose tower is easy to spot.
  • [Novotel Tunis](/en/hotel-tunisie/novotel-tunis): a 4-star hotel at 44 Avenue Mohamed V, in the business district, with a pool, spa, gym and free private parking. Not to be confused with the Novotel at Les Berges du Lac.
  • [Radisson Blu Hotel & Convention Center Tunis](/en/hotel-tunisie/radisson-blu-tunis), formerly the Laico Tunis, on Avenue Mohamed V: indoor and outdoor pools, a spa with hammam and several restaurants.

Les Berges du Lac: business, embassies and a nearby airport

Les Berges du Lac is the business and embassy district, on the shore of the Lake of Tunis. Tunis-Carthage airport is close by, which makes it a good choice for an embassy appointment, a business trip or an early flight.

  • [Mövenpick Hotel du Lac Tunis](/en/hotel-tunisie/movenpick-lac-tunis): a 5-star hotel opened in 2018; the airport and the city centre are ten to fifteen minutes away by car. Spa, pool and gym.
  • [Concorde Les Berges du Lac](/en/hotel-tunisie/concorde-berges-du-lac-tunis): a 5-star hotel with 129 rooms and suites, about 4 km from the airport, with a spa and an indoor pool.

Centre Urbain Nord and Belvédère: north of the centre

Centre Urbain Nord is another business district of the capital. Hotels here are practical for a stopover or a series of appointments, with quick access to the airport.

  • [Tunis Marriott Hotel](/en/hotel-tunisie/marriott-tunis): in Centre Urbain Nord, about 4 km from the airport, with a rooftop outdoor pool, a spa and free parking.
  • [Sheraton Tunis Hotel](/en/hotel-tunisie/sheraton-tunis): a 5-star hotel on Avenue de la Ligue des États Arabes, a few kilometres from the airport, with a heated indoor pool, an outdoor pool, a spa and free parking.
  • [Le Pacha](/en/hotel-tunisie/le-pacha-tunis): a city hotel in the Belvédère district, a few minutes' drive from Avenue Habib Bourguiba and about ten minutes from the airport. A simple choice for a stopover or paperwork.

Gammarth, La Marsa and the Carthage coast: the sea next to the capital

Gammarth is the seaside resort of the northern suburbs of Tunis. You can enjoy a beach holiday while staying close to the capital, Carthage and Sidi Bou Said. It is the area to choose for a family stay or a weekend.

  • [Four Seasons Hotel Tunis](/en/hotel-tunisie/four-seasons-tunis): a 5-star hotel at Cap Gammarth with a private beach of about 500 metres, indoor and outdoor pools and a spa with hammam.
  • [Mövenpick Hotel Gammarth Tunis](/en/hotel-tunisie/movenpick-gammarth): on the seafront between La Marsa and Gammarth, with a beach, indoor and outdoor pools and a spa.
  • [El Mouradi Gammarth](/en/hotel-tunisie/el-mouradi-gammarth): a large 5-star hotel on the beach of the Carthage coast, with a private beach, indoor pool, spa and mini club.
  • [Golden Carthage Hotel Tunis](/en/hotel-tunisie/golden-tulipe-carthage-tunis), formerly the Golden Tulip Carthage: a 5-star hotel in La Marsa, towards Gammarth, with two outdoor pools.

Which area for which trip?

  • Paperwork, government offices, the medina, no car: the city centre.
  • Embassy, business meetings, early flight: Les Berges du Lac or Centre Urbain Nord.
  • Family stay, beach, weekend: Gammarth and La Marsa.
  • Appointments in town and a taste of the sea: Gammarth is within reach of the centre, but allow for travel time at rush hour.
