Movenpick Hotel du Lac Tunis to open in spring 2018

Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts will open its latest property in North Africa – the lakeside Mövenpick Hotel du Lac Tunis in Tunisia’s capital.

The 189-key hotel, which is located in the Berges du Lac business and diplomatic district, will welcome its first guests this spring 2018, and is headed by general manager Nicolas Pezout. His career with Mövenpick spans more than a decade, and he has held senior management positions at several Mövenpick properties in Europe and the Middle East.

All 189 rooms and suites will offer a choice of city or lake views, while dining options will include: a gourmet kitchen experience at La Table du Chef; all-day dining at Le Grand Restaurant; and a lakeside terrace serving mocktails, signature bites and shisha at Al-Diwan.

Wellness facilities will include S Per Aqua’s spa, relaxation pool, sauna, hydro baths and gym, while guests can choose from six venues designed to host events, weddings and meetings, such as the 750-seat ballroom.

Mövenpick Hotel du Lac Tunis is the hospitality firm’s third property in Tunisia and its twenty-third in Africa with five additional hotels set to open in the region by 2020.
