Hotel Royal Jinene Sousse

We arrived at Hotel Royal Jinene last week for 7 days. Upon leaving the coach, a nice man collected our bags. The entrance and lobby is nice, with lobby bar. They put us in room 206 first, which had a view of rubbish filled wasteland and dirty nappies on the roof below!! We immediately asked to change room! The next day they put us in room 502, which was alot better, sea view and pool view with balcony. The overall cleanliness of the hotel is terrible! Carpets never been vacuumed, toilets disgusting. The food is quite limited, but I actually really enjoyed it, breakfast very basic, lunch & dinner very similar each day, but food is good. Bars are basic, weak draft beer was nice, the spirits are local brands but not too bad. They 99% of the time dont have coke zero, just full sugar. Pools, inside closed, outside was good, depth 2.3m, slides are small but ok. Wifi, average coverage in the lobby and rooms, not near swimming pool. The guests are mostly Arab Muslim, they are extremely rude and unfriendly! Luckily there were a fair few brits. The local area in the streets is horrendous, litter literally Everywhere! Dead cats, dead birds, and the feeling of absolutely not being safe! The private Beach, is nice, a bar and nice seating area, But the beaches either side are covered in litter!! Real shame, don't understand why the locals don't help clean it up! The entertainment (Animation) Girls Eyaa and Lulu where just amazing, so lovely and Freindly, they really helped making the holiday brilliant xxx Avoid The Ally baba man! The excursions are awful!! On a bus for 1hr each way for a 15min ride on a restricted quadbike! The AC as advertised, was all turned off from beginning of Sept! Overall, you get what you pay for!! It's not 5 stars, but I did really enjoy it , and Eyaa is lovely

We had the best week ever at Royal Jinene. The rooms were huge you can do a cart wheel and my husband even proved it so! The maid was a star, she even gave me a rose! I wish I caught her name but she needs a raise. I was unwell one day and she crept around like a mouse and closed the curtains for me. Now for the animation team Mino is the man of the hour! Greeted us with a smile every day. Our holiday wouldn't have been as good without him I swear. He played Scrabble with us and was always organising and inviting us to stuff. Full of fun shenanigans that boy! We love you so much Mino and can't wait to see you again. Alibaba who hangs around the lobby was so friendly and set up lots of amazing day trips for us. He was the man with the plan. Big shout out to our man Alibaba! It was our friends birthday while we were there and Mino suggested we do something for him. So we spoke to the manager who done up a table for us getting back after a day out and made a cake for him on the house! The manager is a lovely man. Thank you so much. Oh the spa! Amazing treatments. I've never been to a spa and was nervous but I was put at ease. Thanks again. Overall the place was clean, beautiful and fun! Don't underestimate this place. Book now! We had the time of our lives. We love our homies at jinene and we will be seeing you guys again soon. Thank you for everything xxx

For the money this place takes some beating. Mino the entertainments man was really good at keeping us amused the whole time. We found the food was very good for the price we paid and the drinks were quite acceptable. Room was cleaned, waiting staff helpful and barman friendly. We are going back at the end of January 2025.

After reading some reviews I was a bit sceptical about this hotel but I’m glad we went anyway. The rooms are plenty big enough, clean and tidy, balcony over looking pool and lovely beach very short walk. All the staff made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived to us leaving. Mino from animation team was brilliant making time for everybody and making sure everybody had fun my son thought he was great 👍. There is plenty to do in the area with great restaurants, shopping centre and the coliseum is definitely worth a visit. We would definitely visit Tunisia again and would stay in this hotel again 👍👍

We had like small family trip, hotel was ok, lots things to do around, cheap taxi and restaurants outside hotel, good place if you want explore city, we made friends, my kids love one person from hotel his name is Mino, he was so positive always ready to help. Kids cried on the way to airport and refused to go anywhere else in future unless Mino would change hotel, but yes great time and amazing service, would definitely recommend

The hotel and rooms r fantastic the people who work here are friendly and very helpful down to the entertainment the barmen and don’t forget the cleaners the beach is lovely and plenty of scenary Honestly a great experience you will returning for sure. Big love mino ❤️
