One of the popular tourist destinations for holidays at sea abroad is Tunisia. Novostar Palmira, a beach treshka on the outskirts of Sousse, is a good example of a hotel that, despite its low star rating, has a great rating among travelers.

The hotel stands directly on the sea and provides guests with good quality services. This is one of the hotels Tunisia can be proud of. “Novostar Palmyra”, reviews of which we will consider here, was built in 1985, but in 2013 it underwent a complete overhaul and was updated one hundred percent.

Sousse is one of the busiest tourist cities in the amazing country of Tunisia. "Novostar Palmyra" is located in one of its suburbs called Shot Meriyem.
