Guest reviews for Riad Chalymar
"The staff was very welcoming despite me arriving at 9:30pm. They offered mint tea upon arrival. Friendly and quick communication for all my questions before arrival."
"It was a bit challenging to find late at night in a quiet part of the Medina. Asking people as I went let me to the riad."
"the breakfast was awesome, everything was delicious. the location is good but the path to get to the property is a little bit scary but in marruecos it is normal."
"the path to get to the Riad to scary."
"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!"

"Stayed at the Riad Chalymar for 3 nights in early March. It's in an excellent central location for exploring Marrakech. It's situated down some narrow streets and not the easiest place to find but felt very safe even when returning late at night. The were staff very helpful and attentive and breakfasts were lovely. My room was clean and tidy and the shower and facilities were good."
"There's some building work near the Riad but it wasn't noisy and it didn't was any disruption. However, you do have to navigate your way past them to get to the Riad."
"The breakfast were lovely and the staff were all very helpful whenever we required something. The Riad is also very well located as it is closed to all places of interest within the Old Town."
"The room did not have a towel in the bathroom on the first morning. This was quickly rectified by the staff."
"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 :)"
"Beautiful property, cool from the heat and everyone was welcoming all the time."

"This stay in the Ziz valley felt extremely authentic and was a perfect way to end our time in this area of Morocco. Great location to stay for flights in and out of Errichidia. Hami and his family were excellent hosts and we loved our time talking, having tea, and enjoying the best tangine we had in Morocco!"
