Diar Lemdina Hotel

I think this hotel is overrated It’s barley 3 stars and with least amenities Location is good Breakfast and dinner are basic and not upto expectations Away of beach and with moderate pools

Понравилось расположение отеля, комната, оснащение комнаты. Понравился выбор блюд, вкусовые качества. Приветливый персонал.

First of all, some context. We have been to many countries around the world and have stayed in a variety of accommodation from 5-star luxury resorts in Asia to self-catering in Europe. We are a married couple and this was our first holiday with our new(ish) 3 month old baby. I don't usually write reviews as we generally have no complaints worth writing about but this hotel is lacking in so many areas that I feel compelled to warn travellers against booking this resort. Do not be taken in by the various positive reviews - underneath the surface this hotel is not worth the money and needs to address many issues, some of which are constantly brought up by other reviews and ignored completely. We arrived on Friday 18th October and immediately reported several issues (one of which was a lack of accessibility to our room as we had a buggy). Unfortunately the hotel did not respond to our direct email so we emailed our tour operators. It was only then that we received any communication, but this wasn't to us directly but via the tour operator, despite walking past reception many times and several staff members being aware of our issues but choosing not to get involved. To the hotel's credit they did offer us a room change but this had the same accessibility issues (steps into the room) so we declined. The other issue in our room was one of the shower taps either gave you boiling hot or cold water. We prevailed as the room was thankfully in a quiet corner (room 1132) and had another shower that worked normally. The food is terrible. Poor quality, poor choice and constantly regenerated food options from lunch to dinner. Under-cooked meat was served on several occasions and we noted one chef using the same utensil for meat and fish. There is a lack of labelling on some food items or the labels are generic and descriptions very vague ('fish' and 'cheese' is really not good enough). The cheese, in fact looks appalling (perhaps it tastes like cheese - I can't say), it looks nothing like cheese, nor does the ham (assuming it is turkey ham or some other meat type of unknown origin) and the fruit looks unwashed. The upstairs restaurant 'Tunisien' should offer local or traditional items but this ranged from Turkey or lamb kebabs, fried liver, fish heads and tails (who even eats those??) and rice (regenerated every day). There were no traditional desserts like maybe baklava or continental desserts, only bland ice cream and generic cakes (fruit-topped sponge) and the like. Breakfast is served in a downstairs restaurant (which is also the main restaurant for dinner) that is only accessible via a dozen stairs and this was another issue for us with a buggy so we had to eat in the previous restaurant at a later time for breakfast (and dinner) with limited options. There are omelette stations to their credit but no turkey bacon or sausages or other items you might expect for international guests, the bread, rolls and pastries are of poor quality. It's really not wh
