It’s a traditional riad that is well maintained and kept clean. Location is very convenient if you are looking to explore the Medina, Mosque or the Jamaa Al Fnna areas. The breakfast is delicious. All the staff are extremely welcoming & friendly. Both, Sarah and Mohammed were available to help make recommendations or support in any way to make your stay comfortable. The staff were exceptional and I would highly recommend the place.

My issue might be specific to the room I had but the room on the ground floor which is not noise proofed. This might be uncomfortable for yourself or others if like me you snore :)

An incredible, surprising experience. The street to the riad seems difficult but it's kind of Marrakesh, very close to Jemana Alfena, 5 minute walk. The breakfast was very welcoming and varied, they even arranged for us to be there 1 day earlier because we were going on a tour. Sara and Moahmed are kind and wonderful people, they gave us information, we shared tips, experiences and we made friends. Very kind, I love this people. Wonderful people. We loved it and we will repeat our experience at this riad. I recommend .

We want stay more days but we need work in Portugal.

The staff offer the nicest of welcomes, greeted by Moroccan mint tea and cake on arrival, we were immediately put at ease and given the chance to relax by beaming smiles and warmth from Sarah. Nothing to is too much trouble for Sarah, Fouziya and Saoud. They are friendly, kind, polite and so helpful. Fouziya made the tastiest breakfasts and also adapted the menu to the gluten-free needs of our party. They are happy to chat in Arabic, French or English and take time to ensure you have all that you need and are interested in your stay. The 2-bed bedroom was spacious, clean, and charmingly decorated, as was the bathroom. The Riad itself is bright and elegant with a fantastic plunge pool at the centre on the ground floor. The water is fresh but not too cold. You reach the Riad by entering a series of enclosed alleways but Sarah came out to show us the way and then you quickly remember it. It is about 10 minutes walk from the main square with the bustling Medina and Souks, so the location is perfect for a central stay Birds tweet in the daytime and it provides an oasis of calm in the busyness of the city. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and recommend the Chalymar Riad for a wonderful base close to the city centre with the most helpful and courteous of staff.

There is nothing to dislike, but perhaps to point out that its not ideal for those with mobility difficulties, as there are quite a lot of steps to reach the larger upper rooms and access to the riad is through cobbled alleways. No lifts.

We had a great stay at this beautiful riad. It had a private rooftop and nice, clean rooms ❤️ Really friendly staff that helped us out with everything we needed and even offered to show us the way to the bank etc. Really great location! It was close to the big square but also nice and quiet. Staying in a riad feels much more personal than in a hotel.

Really hard to get the right temperature in the shower. Also missing some fruit in the breakfast. Besides that we have no complains!

We adored this Riad and the gorgeous people who work there. Our stay in Marrakech was made very special by the wonderful Manager Sarah and her great team. She couldn’t do enough to help us and the warmth of her bubbly welcome made us feel so much at home. The Road itself is gorgeous, a beautiful and peaceful oasis from the hustle of the medina.

We loved everything about it

I love everything about this place. I’ve traveled all over and this was easily the best stay I’ve ever had. Everyone is so so friendly and kind and helpful. It’s very easy to get lost in the Medina so Soufiane and Sara were always helping me figure out where to go. the Riad is beautifully decorated, the water is HOT, the beds are comfortable, and the rooms are great size for a reasonable price. I will definitely stay there again!

nothing. everything about it was amazing!

I really enjoyed the way the hosts, Sara and Mohcine were so accommodating. They were willing to help me find things to do. They assisted in arranging transportation which is always a plus when traveling aboard. I took a cooking class and received henna all while I stayed at the riad. Sara and Mohcine were warm, friendly and kind every step of the way. I will definitely be going back. Also, the location was in a quiet area but also not too far from the Medina so I could go out to eat and shop whenever I wanted.

Very good breakfast and very friendly and helpful staff! Quiet neighbourhood although the riad is not easy to find, follow the instructions on google maps but be careful because it is not very precise, the staff is available if you need help

All the staff was amazing, and very friendly and helpful. The first day we didn't had air conditioner, they offer us to go to another riad, but we wanted to stay there. The next day it was solved! Simply perfect. We loved the riad, as much as the two little cats there. It makes you feel like home, for sure. The location is perfect, close to the jeema El fna, souks, and everything. It was a very good experience.

One of the things we didn't like so much, was the fact of not having a key to the main door. However, the staff was always available to open the door, no matter what time it was. The first days was a little bit hard to sleep because of the loud noise at night, which sometimes was till 1 o'clock in the morning. But this was only the first 2 days. But we were traveling with a kid, so it was a little bit harder for us. In general was amazing.

We had e great staying in the riad, eating a wonderful breakfast. The atmosphere was amazing and if I have a chance to visit Marrakech again, I will definitely chose this riad again. Mohcine was very friendly as he gave us a wonderful advices for restaurants and places to visit. He also was kind enough to change an amount of money for us and even went outside to print our airplane tickets (which we didn’t knew that we have to do it). We are very grateful for that, he was our superhero!
