Hotel Dakyanus Tataouine

The dining options were the same every single day: chicken or fish. Breakfast buffet only had a few items. Some days eggs were only available as hardboiled. But in comparison to what’s available in the rest of Tataouine this was the best option in hotels.

Bella struttura anche se, come spesso capita in Tunisia, un po' trascurata. La piscina era indicata come attiva ma in realtà era inutilizzabile per acqua stagnante. Una nota di merito a disponibilità e cortesia del personale, in particolare alla reception

Hôtel très moyen, avec une climatisation qui ne fonctionne pas correctement. La chambre n’est clairement pas à la hauteur du standing attendu pour un hôtel. Expérience globalement décevante.

Excellent sur tout les point nouriture personnel ..

The best hotel in Tatouine

Malgré un très joli cadre et beaucoup de potentiel, l'expérience est plus que médiocre. Alors que nous étions les seuls clients, le service était inexistant. Pas de table mise pour le petit déjeuner, d'ailleurs quasiment inexistant a part du pain rassis. Pas de bouteille d'eau dans les chambres et personnel peu avenant dans l'ensemble. Nous n'avons pas pris le risque de dîner dans l'hôtel... Chambre propre mais vieillissante. Rapport qualité prix très faible.

Hébergement avec une âme !

Hotel bien placé pour visiter tataouine. Personnel tres serviable et attentionné. Mais l hotel demanderai un serieux rafraîchissement pour etre a la hauteur de ses etoiles.

Ambiente degradato e sporco

Instalaciones deficientes con la piscina de agua verde y habitaciones a falta de acondicionar correctamente Los menús deficientes Mala relación calidad/precio

Very friendly staff, made all efforts to make our short stay enjoyable. But Hotel needs serious attention from owners. very basic breakfast, poor wifi reception in rooms.

Very pleasant hotel just outside of Tataouine. Very friendly and helpful staff. Breafast is OK. We had 2 evening meals at the hotel and both were very nice. Overall very good value.

Parking moto privato, struttura datata ma confortevole

I spent 1 night here, based on the glowing reviews. Sadly, this hotel has gone down hill significantly, and is in poor condition now. Everything is broken, crumbling & old. Its as if they stopped maintaining the property years ago. Paint is peeling off the walls, lights don't work, the pool had no water, etc. There's almost no one working there (the same guy who served food was also at the reception desk). Dinner was ok, but it the dining room was nearly dark, with just a weird flood light in a corner. Breakfast was awful, just a weird assortment of prepackaged food, condiments and omelettes. The wifi dropped out often. They took accept cards for payment, but seemed very annoyed when I wanted to use one asking "don't you have any cash???". Its sad how bad this hotel became in a few years time.

Hotel tres agréable , bon services , chambre propre, emplacement excellent, je le recommande

No hot water

Tres calme chambre très propre A l'abri du brouhaha du centre ville Joli site Personnel très professionnel et à l'écoute Jolie piscine

Nous avons passé une bonne nuit dans cet hotel. Propre et personnel serviable

Service is excellent. Reception lady is very friendly. Cleaners are very helpful when i got some requests. Pool is clean. But breakfast was out of my expectation

Très belle expérience

Accueil très sympa et personnel très gentil Séjour d’une nuit, hôtel vieillissant et mériterait d’être rénové. Très beau site et bien placé. Repas très bon.

struttura non adatta a portatori di handicap. non ci sono rampe né ascensori

Séjour convenable mériterait une rénovation

Vi ero stato altre due volte (2012 e 2014) e mi ero trovato molto bene. Quando siamo arrivati questa volta, la prima notte non c’era la camera prenotata e ce n’è stata data una mal messa e sporchissima, con letti sporchi e distrutti.

Ce séjour faisait partie d’un road trip de Tozeur à Djerba en passant par le désert. Fabuleuse nuitée avant d’arriver à Tataouine. Hôtel de style berbère, silence et lever de soleil remarquable. Une vraie piscine extérieure pour faire des longueurs aux beaux jours. Restaurant très bien, personnel discret et accueillant. Près de Chenini.

No water at all in the room on checkin and then after 2 hours only cold water. Was forced to have a cold shower nearly naked outside by the swimming pool. Advertised WiFi was basically non existent in the room and the restaurant and hotel lobby. Dinner food quality was very poor and mostly cold. Also the restaurant was inundated with very hungry and annoying cats with very sharp claws digging into my clothes and even groin while they kept trying to climb onto my lap to get food. Although restaurant staff kept chasing the cats out they kept managing to keep entering the restaurant. Staff was generally nice but management is clearly to blame. Hotel grounds were reasonably well kept and nice gardens. We were happy to depart in the morning.

Every thing was in french so we didn't understand but other than that was lovely

We spent two nights and days here as a family of four (2 adults, one teenager and one 6 year old) - primarily to be a base for our visiting the Star Wars sets. The whole place is so elegantly decorated that we felt we were in a palace in ancient times! The rooms were perfect size (and if you can get their one suite, you'll feel really pampered!). A must-stay if you're anywhere near Tatooine!

The hotel is out of Tataouine town. It is relatively a good hotel in the desert area. The staffs are nice, food is good in local standard. Wifi signal is a little weak in room but speed is good if you move to lobby.

We stayed one night at the Dakyanus in September 2014 whilst on a motoring tour of Tunisia. It is a long way outside the town , but is like heaven on earth! All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were simple but quite comfortable (comfortable bed and pillows, running hot and cold water) , the food was plentiful and of good quality, and above all a large pool right on the edge of the Sahara desert! The setting is absolutely idyllic: the hotel is in a perfect position to explore the local sites (Including Chenini, Luke Skywalker's home). At night, the starry night was quite spectacular and it was perfectly still and silent, except for the sound of the insects!

One of the most wonderful hotel experience - and I use to travel a lot!- All the staff are just perfect : polite , respectufully, smile and anytime ready to help you. Une des plus belles de mes experiences de voyage : un hotel magnifique, tres propre, equipe competente et d'une amabilite rare : un moment magique aux portes du desert tunisien

One gets what one expects from a 3 star hotel - cleanliness, good food, comfortable bed and pillows, running hot and cold water, etc. - plus towel changing every day and a large pool, but, above all, charming staff. And all this on the edge of the Sahara desert!! Nowhere near is as good. it is advisable to spend more than one night so as to admire the relaxing atmosphere.

We stopped there for lunch on a 5-day trip called "Le fond du désert" in Tunisia. The hotel is very nice and the employees very welcoming. They installed us on the very nice backyard terrace. We had a nice great 5-service lunch with typical dishes from Tunisia (Brick, couscous, etc.). This lunch was huge and very satisfying. It is a place we will return!

My wife and I stayed at the Dakyanus for two nights half board in January 2013 whilst on a motoring tour of Southern Tunisia. It is a long way outside the town and your own transport is necessary. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable, and the food was plentiful and of good quality. Although the price was higher than expected,because we were using a Lonely Planet guide which was two years old, it was good value, especially as there is considerable inflation in the country (but a better exchange rate for sterling). Of course, in January, we did not use the unheated pool. The hotel was in a good position to explore the local sites (Including Luke Skywalker's home). At night, walking in the grounds it was perfectly still and silent, except for the sound of the breeze. The stars were spectacular.

We had to wait twenty minutes to talk to someone at the reception. Although the interior design of the hotel and the pool area was very nice, after having seen the room, we decided not to stay at this hotel. The room was very dark and very basic, the bathroom dirty and run down. Not recommendable!

I have stayed at the Dakyanus for over 2 months in total. The friendliness of the staff is excellent. Whenever I stay there they treat me exceptionally, my room is always made up excellent, fresh towels, soap etc. The kitchen staff is also very accommodating, they usually prepare a daily dinner meal, but will make you almost anything you ask for, and the food is very good. I have stayed at other hotels in Tataouine, and this is by far the best one. The owner of the hotel is also very accommodating, he will go out of his way to make your stay enjoyable.

We arrived to this hotel without previous reservation after we got a shocked reception at Kenza hotel in Chenini village (which is highly not advisable during summer period because of extremely high temperature inside the caves-rooms). After Kenza, Dakyanus hotel appeared as a heaven for us. There is a huge clean pool. The rooms are simple but have everything needed. Air conditioning is weak, but at least it exists. There is free private parking. The dinner is very good, but is served dish after dish and therefore takes about 1.5-2 hours. Breakfast is poor.

When we came in to book, we got a free fruit drink, AND a outrageous price. We eventually agreed and got a average room. The pool was good, but there was no hot tub, and it got cold late in the day. The setting was a beautiful faux-ksar, and the room inside was average, but lacking in a bathub. The main dinner was stewed lamb gargoulette and chicken couscouse, with a mediocre vegetarian plate. The lamb was debatable: good if you like it tender, but I thought it rather overstewed. We were glad not to have to pay for another night there. I'm not sure: it might be the best hotel in the area.
