Stayed 2 nights. We were actually brought to its sister riad Belkisse (also very nice) on the same street for 1 night.(look for the Belkisse sign if coming in from hospital street / lot)Note - riad can be very hard to find as have to go through several turns in back alley so don't do it in the dark - ask for airport or pickup from the riad. Although the alley is relatively well lit for Marrakesh standards.As with all riads it is an old building with its charms (so don't expect perfect "new building" standards) and the outside street area can look sketchy at first. 5 min walk to Jema El Fna and street to catch taxi.Great value for the riad experience and nice breakfast with some homemade yogurt. Nice roof terrace with sun bedInside it is very well maintained (showers, bathroom, electric outlets and wifi all kept up to date) and clean with very nice staff and owner (Jean Jacques) - good communication

Very friendly staff,great value for money,and more than that..you can have next day an Atlas 1 day unforgetable trip, plus Sahara,Essaouirra!And beeing...

First at all I would like to say thanks for Abidu and Malika. They are great staffs helping us with everything that we needed. The best Morocco tea I've tried in my life it was made for Abidu and I will never forget this experience and how kind he is! The breakfast was also very delicious, thank you Malika! The hotel is close to the main attractions and you see Morocco exactly how it is. I high recommend and I could stay again! Thank you so much for everything! Karla and Cesar

The staff are good. They can speak Arabic, English, French, And Spanish. Breakfast was good but can be improved. The rooftop terrace offers beautiful views and good place to unwind after a tiring day of exploring. The Riad, pool and our room are clean but there’s always a cigarette smoke smell. We also like the decoration of the Riad and it’s quiet. We were upgraded from Deluxe to Suite, which was a bonus (after a gruelling 10hr bus ride and food sickness from Merzouga!). Bed is comfortable and the room has heater. The Riad offers dinner menu but we didn’t see anyone dinning. We stayed for 3nights and according to Agoda/Booking.com we’re to get free dinner. However according to the staff, It apparently stopped last May and Agoda/Booking.com have not updated their websites. They still served us Lamb Tagine (bought from outside) since the lady has confirmed the dinner beforehand. Many shops and cafes since it’s in the Medina. Don’t miss the crazy El Fynna Square at night! Few things we didn’t like are: WiFi is very slow (even though in common areas) and cannot reach our room; the guests smoke inside the Riad and you can smell it also in the room; the Riad is not easy to find (download maps.me for offline navigation); lastly, the alleys to go to the Riad are dark and dodgy. It can be scary but nothing happened to us. Overall, It was a nice experience but I would not stay here again.

Soufiane is a really Nice gentlemen. He took good care of us. The breakfast every morning was delicious! He also showed us Nice food places in marrakech, and helped us with the taxi and other excursions. The riad is very Nice to relax and the rooms are very good!!We visited with 5 Friends , from holland. If you want a good service and meet Nice Friends then come to riad chalymar!

Yes when you first see the location it can be a bit daunting, but you soon realise that the whole of the old town is set out along a maze of alleyways. Riad Chalymar provides a peaceful haven from the hustle and bustle of the main square and the souks. The rooms are comfortable clean and well serviced, ours was cleaned and the towels replaced every day. The breakfast was simple but fresh and filling with fresh juice and coffee or tea. Soufiane and the rest of the staff were extremely helpful and very friendly. Whether it's a trip you're after, advice on where to eat, directions to one of the many sights or advice on how much a taxi will cost, they are the people to ask. Try it, you won't be disappointed, Riad Chalymar is a jewel in the Marrakech crown.

We spent the first 4 nights of our stay in Morocco at this Riad. From the very first moment we felt very welcome. Staff was very helpful organizing the transfer from the airport, picking us up from the taxi, showing us some nice hammam used by locals and also demonstrating how to cook Tajine.The rooms were very good value for the price paid, clean and aircon and warm water working as expected. Other than the rooms, the Riad has multiple nice public spaces including a small terrace. It was just a pity, this terrace couldn't be used for breakfast or dinner.As for the location, it was just perfect for us. Reasonably close to both the main square and Bahia palace, but still distant enough not to be disturbed by the noise of these areas. Although it is located in a little inviting backstreet, we didn't feel unsafe at all in the area.
