Dar Rajli

il Riad è quanto di più accogliente si possa immaginare. Raramente mi capita di lasciare un'abitazione con cosi tanta malinconia e voglia di ritornarci. Un'abitazione funzionale in tutto con raro utilizzo degli spazi.

​If you are looking for an authentic soul-stirring experience in the heart of the Tunis Medina, look no further. Our two-night stay at Dar Rajli was nothing short of magical. This 18th-century gem managed to transport us back in time while providing every modern comfort we could have asked for. ​The restoration of this dar is a triumph. It’s clear that the renovation was a labor of love, executed with a deep respect for its original 18th-century character. The intricate carved stucco with geometric patterns and Arabic calligraphy, soaring arches, and traditional central courtyard remain the stars of the show. ​ Subtle, contemporary touches—from the lighting to the plush bedding and modern bathrooms—ensure the space feels fresh and luxurious rather than like a museum. ​What truly elevated our stay was the service. Our host was exceptionally helpful and responsive. From the moment we booked until the moment we checked out, communication was effortless. Whether we needed local recommendations or help navigating the winding alleys of the Medina, they were always just a quick message away with a thoughtful answer. ​Why You Should Stay Here ​Location: Perfectly situated to explore the vibrant souks and historic sites of Tunis. ​Atmosphere: Quiet and serene, offering a peaceful escape from the bustling city streets outside. ​Authenticity: You aren't just staying in a hotel; you’re living in a piece of Tunisian history. ​Dar Rajli is a rare find. It’s a place that honors its past while embracing the present, making it the perfect home base for any traveler with a penchant for beauty and heritage. We left feeling inspired and are already dreaming of our return.

Uno degli alloggi migliori della mia vita. Stupendo, pulitissimo, silenzioso, proprietari educati e ricettivi, letto comodissimo. Non volevamo davvero andare via. Davvero consigliatissimo!

Très belle maison traditionnelle restaurée dans les moindres détails avec beaucoup d’élégance, un havre de paix au cœur de l’effervescence de la médina de Tunis. L’accueil chaleureux, l’authenticité des lieux avec son patio ombragé, ses zelliges colorés et son architecture typique nous ont transportés dans un conte des Mille et Une Nuits. Parfait pour une escapade en famille : les enfants étaient ravis des espaces cosy et des jeux d’ombre et de lumière naturels ! Propreté impeccable, emplacement idéal pour explorer les souks à pied, Nous reviendrons les yeux fermés. Merci pour cette bulle de magie tunisienne !

The home is beautifully restored. We were extremely lucky to live there for two weeks. We enjoyed the quiet of our location, the deep history of the country and the friendly and helpful neighbours. We are interested in Roman history and found lots to enjoy. We also appreciated the in season mandarins, olives and dates!

Staying in the Medina was our choice but visitors should be aware that it is a very old enclave and getting around can be a challenge. SIRI gets confused too! Was it worth it? Yes!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour dans cette magnifique maison située en pleine médina de Tunis. La rénovation a été menée avec beaucoup de goût et de très beaux matériaux. Les trois chambres indépendantes ont chacune leur salle de bain privative, le patio est en marbre, les meubles, boiseries et mosaiques donnent beaucoup de cachet à l'ensemble. A souligner : les photos du site sont tout à fait conformes à la réalité du lieu. Enfin, Amel est une hôte d’une grande gentillesse, accueillante et arrangeante. En bref, un sejour original, loin des hôtels standardisés et donc très réussi.

Nous sommes venus pendant le mois du ramadan et il y a eu de la musique dans le quartier jusque 23h30-minuit pendant deux des trois nuits de notre séjour. A noter : le quartier et la maison sont extrêmement calmes le reste du temps.

The property was beautiful! It was extremely spacious and a treat to stay in.

Tout était parfait Je le conseille vivement Magnifique moderne et en même temps typique Tout le confort Très bien situé et en même temps au calme

房间很有阿拉伯风格，三间卧室中两间巨大，厨房也是又大又棒，院中有个四方天井，遮阳又通风。整体来说住的很舒服。位置在麦地那老城区，出行也便利，旁边不远处有间屋顶餐厅，环境好食物美价格也不贵。房东很热情，介绍的出租车司机很热情服务也很棒。

个别床单不是太干净

The house was beautiful, the host super friendly.

What a wonderful stay, I would recommend this property to anyone that is wanting to stay in Tunis. Very clean property and an excellent location. 7 minute walk from one of the best restaurants in all of Tunisia. I will be staying here next time that I visit Tunis.

I liked everything about the property.

Beautiful house in an ideal location in the medina. Owner was absolutely charming and made us feel incredibly welcome. The bedrooms are huge and the house as a whole is beautifully restored.

The new door was a bit difficult to use (the key struggled a bit), but not a big deal once we figured it out !

The villa is actually a two level building and another one for the roof top (the rooftop is good for absorbing some sun and getting in a view of the tunisian mosques and buildings structure. It is not for a long stay though. The bottom floor had two big bedrooms, each with its own beautifully designed and well maintained toilets and showers. The top floor had yet another one humongous bedroom with one more great bathroom. The ground floor has a suitable kitchen with a mix of maintaining the ambiance of the old architecture yet new utensils and kitchen tools. It is was good enough for our needs and in that floor is another toilet by the door just in case you didn’t have enough! The apartment has a small living room couch and NO TV (which might not appeal to some but for us, it was perfect). There is an amazing hall/yard like where you can sit if the weather allows it and take in all the feelings of buildings from old centuries. The internet and phone coverage is not good in all places but work fine in the living room which was good enough for us to stay connected when needed but if you need your mobile coverage in all places (in bed), you will not have that. Nothing better than super could be said about the owner’s hospitality. She is welcoming, helpful, full of good recommendations, kept the apartment very well supported with towels, soap, toilet paper, everything that might be needed. I highly recommend this place for a group who are willing to feel Tunis. There is no parking “right” in front of the door but one minute walk and there is a street where we were lucky enough to park sometimes but it is not the easiest.

We had an amazing stay at Amel's beautifully restored home. Every detail was perfect! And it helped us feel more connected to the art and culture of Tunis and the area. The beds were all very comfortable and being able to use the laundry at the end of a 2-week trip was incredibly helpful. Amel met us at the property and gave us some fantastic tips for restaurants. She even helped order a taxi for our VERY early flight home for our last day, which we much appreciated. She was communicative and helpful throughout our stay.

The Internet only worked in the main living/kitchen area, but it wasn't a big problem.

The house looked gorgeous and clean, gave me the feeling of being at home, and was in a very convenient spot within the Tunisian Casbah. Amal the host was very accommodating, If you prefer to organize trips to view the gorgeous green Tunisia, ask her to arrange for you to be taken by L'aarbi or Wadii those guys were awesome and very welcoming!

Central location

The villa is lovely, spacious and comfortable. we had a lovely stay . The kitchen is well enough stocked to do a bit of cooking if needed. situated in a nice neighborhood its close to a bakery where you can buy baguettes in the morning ( top of the lane to the left) and a few small stores where you can buy eggs , coffee etc , (top of the lane to the right) . TIP* From the top of the lane turn left on rue de Pacha, the souks are about a 15 minute walk along this road , where you will also find coffee shops, fast food takeaway, pizzas etc and some restaurants, it's a pleasant and interesting walk. if you follow the souks all the way to the bottom you will arrive at the top of AVE du France,l, where you can buy wine and beer in Maison de generate and the nearby monoprix . A bit further down in the same side you will find the theatre cafe / restaurant which serves good food at reasonable prices . Avoid like the plague the street side restruants on the opposite side .

Only niggle was the WIFI was weak in the bedrooms , perfectly good in the kitchen where we could watch netflix on our laptop , but would have been nice if we could have used the upstairs lounge for this . a fairly simple fix of adding the missing antenna on the router and perhaps installing an inexpensive repeater upstairs to boost the signal . apart from that absolutely no complaints . Some reviews mention that the villa is down a small dirty alley this is definitely not the case . It's down a small sweet cobbled lane .

Warm welcome, design, clean, spacious, location

Amazing traditional Tunisian house in the heart of the medina and 5-7 mins walking distance to the souks and the Zitouna mosque. The place is in an impeccable condition keeping every detail in mind and very clean too. We were a family of 6 and had lots of space to be comfortable and move around. The decoration and styling make you feel like a princess 😉. The host was easily accessible and very responsive. This place definitely elevated our stay in Tunisia!

Some people could find the location slightly intimidating given it's in a very local narrow and dirty street with no direct access with a car. It takes about 7 mins to walk to the more touristic area of the medina. We did not feel unsafe at any time though.

The property is beautifully and lovingly restored and is ideal to explore the city. Every detail has been taken care of offering serenity and comfort and really giving you a feel of a Tunisian home experience.

Everything was amazing . Owner was very humble and helpful.

Location and space.

Beautiful, clean, and well-equipped property. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom which was a welcome bonus. The house is situated in a great location, with coffee shops and patisseries nearby, and is in walking distance from the medina. The hosts were responsive and very pleasant.

One thing to note is that the property is a bit difficult to access via car as it is located in a smaller lane. Just be prepared for a tiny bit of walking to and from the main road.

The house really is amazing. The decoration is just awesome, even the bathrooms are cool and the beds are comfortable. In addition there is a rooftop where you can take a look at the city Skyline. Additionally the location is very good too, within walkikg distance to main attractions. The host was very helpful.
