Hotel Sousse Palace

Top choice in Sousse


This renovated place in Sousse's city centre is deservedly popular, with facilities similar to the resort hotels in Port El Kantaoui: restaurants (two with sea views), a foyer bar, spa with hammam (treatments 40DT to 110DT), indoor and outdoor pools, and direct beach access. Rooms are extremely comfortable, with satellite TVs, kettles and large bathrooms. Staff are both friendly and efficient.
