Traditional Stay in Marrakesh
Very friendly and helpful staff in a lovely small property in a traditional Riad style. Do use the pick-up service to get to the hotel - as the local lanes all look the same at first, A short walk to the old Jewish Quarter and souk entrance. Mutta and her team very helpful and friendly when it comes to organising guides, transport etc. Great stay.

Riad bonito e simpático
O riad é muito bonito e perto do centro (10 minutos a pé) os colaboradores são muito simpáticos e prestáveis, mas não falam inglês ou espanhol, apenas francês ou árabe. O pequeno almoço é monótono, e nem todas os itens estão disponíveis. Apesar da quantidade ser modesta, e ser sempre igual, é saboroso.

Le Riad est un endroit exceptionnel et l’accueil est vraiment très sympathique. Nous avons été très bien accueilli et la propriétaire a prit le temps de nous expliquer ce qu’il fallait faire et ne pas faire à Marrakech. Je recommande sans hésiter.

A charming oasis in the bustling city
We had a wonderful stay at Riad Chamali! We were greeted with tea upon our arrival and given a map to help us navigate the main attractions in Marrakech. The Riad itself is picturesque but also cozy. We so enjoyed our Moroccan breakfasts each morning and we had a lovely dinner at the riad one night. The staff were so helpful, hospitable and always available if we needed anything. They also helped us to arrange a transfer by car to Casablanca. We already miss the city of Marrakech and our home away from home at Riad Chamali. We can't wait to come back!

Un Riad authentique et accueillant
Un Riad accueillant, bien tenu, un personnel à votre écoute et d’une grande gentillesse. Terrasse très appréciable pour se détendre après une journée de balades dans la Médina. Nous recommandons ce Riad pour son calme, son accueil et son authenticité.

Beautiful Riad
Beautiful spacious Riad which is a wonderful place to escape from the busy Medina. In a good location near the Palaces and easy walking distance to the Souks. There is a lot of outdoor terrace space and a number of internal courtyards so loads of places to sit and relax. All the staff are very lovely and the food is good. Beautiful rooms. I would say this is a very nice Riad - and it could be an exceptional one with a bit more work on the little things and bit of increase in a more costumer facing service. That being said - the staff went out of their way to make sure that my husband, who can not eat gluten, was catered for. Thank you.

Good location - nice and quiet
Walking distance to major sights in Marrakech old town. Very good dinner. Serves alcohol. Very picturesque hotel. Breakfast needs an upgrade. Coffee wasn't properly warm. No eggs. Only white bread with jam and pancakes.

The perfect Riad
The Riad Chamali was excellent 'value for money' and the staff were exceptional. Very welcoming, nothing too much trouble and very friendly & helpful indeed. Moutaa (the general manager) was a delight and credit to the hotel !!! - I would certainly recommend this hotel if value for money is what you require without compromising comfort. Once through the main entrance very quaint, authentic and spacious. 10/10 for this Riad

Lovely guest host with amazing staff
Lovely little find, the staff are very attentive, couldn't do enough for you. Rooms are basic but very clean and had everything you needed. Its a 15min walk to the main square but other main tourists sites are much closer. There were a couple of little things that needed fixing like the door handle and shower head, but this didn't effect our stay. Given the price we paid we felt it was very good value for money and would definitely recommend to people on a similar budget.

The Riad for a perfect holiday!
Best customer service we have ever encountered! The riad in itself is absolutely gorgeous, even better than the pictures provided. The room was very clean with a very comfortable bed. The amenities in the room smelled incredible. There is a sense of peace throughout the riad even though it is located in the busy medina. The terrace overlooks the Atlas Mountains and provides a space to sit and relax whilst enjoying the warm weather. Every member of the Riad’s team was outstanding, Hamza and Moutan ensured that everything we needed and enquired was met at a standard that exceeded all our expectations. The breakfast was refreshing and offered a mixture of Moroccan traditional items as well as the popular options of a European breakfast. We also dined in the riad on the first night, and even though our flight was late in the evening, the team arranged a lemon and chicken tagine with salad and cous cous that was the perfect start to our holiday in Marrakech (always with the company of the Riad’s cat, the beloved Chamali) A truly impeccable Riad with a team that complete the whole experience. We will definitely be returning as soon as we can!

Gepflegtes Riad mit perfektem Service
Das Riad ist sehr gepflegt, liegt günstig und hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Team ist extrem hilfsbereit und freundlich. Wir haben am Weihnachtsabend ein Dinner gebucht, das ganz fantastisch war. Das Frühstück auf der Dachterrasse ist ein Highlight.
