Do not worry about critics you could read, this hotel is a bit expensive but very good
Waiter and services are excellent. People are always nice to you, ready to help you.
Rooms are really comfortable and clean. The only exception I could tell about, is the bad cleanliness of the baby chair.
This hotel is suitable not only for business man but also for families. A nursery is always available in the morning till 5:00 pm.
Except a clam area during the day and a piano bar in the evening.

I would like to congratulate all the staff including direction of Mövenpick resort & Marine Spa Sousse for the good organisation done in the St Sylvester Party 2012. I really was glad to be in such luxury hotel with perfect staff offering top of hospitality. In fact it was not strange from a Swiss company. Many many thanks to all and for all. I'am Tunisian and very proud to have such example of hotels in Tunisia. Congratulations

With very little choice of direct flights out of Finland on the 23rd, we went for a flight to Monastir, and chose the Mövenpick in Sousse as part of a western chain hoping it would be a fair standard and we could get a bit of winter sun (we did).

Taxi from Monastir aiport to Sousse is 30 Dinars, or 45 dinars between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m.
There is a cashpoint (ATM) 20 yards to your left as you exit baggage claim.
Or the hotel will arrange a car to pick you up for 130 Dinars, A bargain at twice the price, which can be arranged, they´ll pick you up in a limo for 200+ dinars, :-0

It´s a very nice hotel, bricks and mortar are a bit souless, but the staff are polite and do a good job. You could eat your food off the floor - armies of cleaners are constantly washing the floors.

Aircon works with the balcony door shut - incase you´re wondering why it´s not telling you the temperature. With the balcony door open we could hear the hum of aircon units on the roof opposite.

Bed was excellent, duvet a bit light for the time of year. Water pressure was a bit low in the shower, but I´ve had worse. Shaving mirror was positioned for somone slightly shorter than five foot nothing. But these are trivial things.

The beach directly infront of the hotel is immaculate, though too cold to go into the sea. Sand carefully raked each day and guards posted at the boundaries, presumably to stop the locals wandering in and throwing litter everywhere like they have done on the rest of the beach all the way in to the city.

The gym is located on the ground floor and poorly signposted from inside the building, but clearly signposted if you approach form the outside. Several machines out of order or missing parts. If anyone finds a sturdy teaspoon in the rowing machine bit of the multigym, it came from room 8152. :-))

The heated spa pool is open to spa users, but also to hotel guests in the Winter months (IIRC 07-10 and 16-18, but don´t quote me on that). My better half had a massage in the spa, she said it was good but not quite the same as a physio massage - not that it was expected to be.

Buffet breakfast with omelette bar blokey and another guy doing crepes. Fair choice for carnivores, not so great for vegetarians. Bread and butter pudding made with croissants and pain-au-chocolat was fantastic so I can´t complain.

We ate outside the hotel a couple of times and like others found the local grub a bit rough, so we had dinner in the hotel´s restaurants four times in 1 week. Japanese restaurant twice (excellent), the Spanish restaurant once (good), and the Tunisian buffet on the final night (good).

Again, very little choice on the menus for vegetarians, but after some negotiation, the Japanese restaurant offered cucumber & avocado sushi and vegetable tempura both really nice - the Spanish restaurant offered mushroom risotto again really good - all would make good additions to their respective menus.

Guests in executive rooms on the 8th floor (top floor) get free WiFi (passcode 1234512345, the download speed was as low as 100 kbps and at best - after midnight - 800 kbps).

Huge number of TV channels (about 80?) but mostly Arabic - English language there was Al Jazeera, Euronews and BBC World - middle east flavours of the latter two. No pay TV, so we were glad of the Galaxy Tab / VPN / iPlayer in the nights.

The hotel is excellent and might be suitable if you come in the summer and don´t leave the hotel grounds, just a shame the town doesn´t match up to the hotel´s standards.

my experience at the Movenpick resort in sousse was one of my best! the hotel was amazing and had a great and high standard interior design.. the rooms were very comfortable and always clean. i had a great time there even though the weather was not so good. The SPA of the hotel was the perfect attraction, i spent most of my time there. It was wonderful
