    I loved everything from the start From the meeting and greeting Loved my room. it's comfortably air conditioning it worked. Breakfast was good, very healthy, which i liked. very happy woman, and I had a couple of dips in the pool once in. It's ok as the water is very cold.. must not forget my ginger nuija, the cat she lovely. I could have brought her home , but I think my cat at home would have been jealous. 😊 Staff are very friendly and helpful and take proud in their job, especially for young men .I wished I had stayed longer and will return Thank you so much as a solo traveller

    My only issue is that it is hard to find. We were meet by a member of staff and walked the from the medina gate. But when we went out by ourselves it was tricky to find our way back on the narrow streets. So a few sign posts would be helpful. Or a map of the narrow surrounding streets.

    The Riad is lovely a real oasis from the busy streets of Marrakech. Our room was really lovely and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast on the roof terrace was a real treat.

    A True Gem in Marrakesh. The best customer service I have ever had when travelling

    We LOVE everything ❤️

    My stay at Riad Chameleon in Marrakesh was nothing short of extraordinary, marking the best customer service experience l've ever had while traveling. From the moment we arrived, Mohamed, Mourad, and Azedin went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Their hospitality was unparalleled; they personally guided us through the intricate souks to ensure we didn't get lost. Mohamed's dedication was particularly impressive, as he accompanied us outside the Medina to wait for our transfer to the Agafay desert and even helped us find a taxi when we checked out to move to another riad. (Al thought i didnt want to leave riad chameleon) The entire staff was phenomenal, but these three hosts truly made us feel like part of their family. Their respectfulness, attention to detail, and genuine care were remarkable. Riad Chameleon itself is stunning and spotless. The cleanliness was impeccable, and our room was spacious and extremely comfortable. The bed was delightful, and the bathroom was large, modern, and very clean. We loved relaxing by the swimming pool and enjoyed the delicious breakfast each morning. We booked 2 nights at Riad Chameleon and 2 nights at another riad. While the other riad was lovely and the owners were nice, we regretted not staying all 4 nights at Riad Chameleon. After having the best experience here, anything else seemed to pale in comparison. I cannot recommend Riad Chameleon enough. I fell in love with Morocco, and this riad will undoubtedly be my go-to place to stay every time I visit Marrakesh. An absolute must for anyone seeking an authentic and exceptional Moroccan experience. Maria London

    Beautiful place to stay for your holidays, great views from the open rooftop, especially in the evening to watch the sunset. The Riad itself is very nicely designed with lots of attention to details, it is also in a very good and convenient location. The staff was great and always ready to help with any requests or concerns. Breakfast was also really nice with great food variety and beautiful view. Special thanks to Abdo for making the best green tea and for his hospitality. Also, thank you to Mourad for being a great guide and showing around Medina. Thanks to the rest of the staff for your service and warm welcome. Keep going, and I hope to see you again in the future. Highly recommend.

    Our first time in Marrakesch was really a great experience, thanks to the amazing team of the Riad. I was a little bit nervous at first, but Mourad helped us with everything. He showed us the right routes, recommended some places and even picked us up at the beginning. We always felt safe and welcome. The breakfast was great, we loved the tea and everything was clean. Our evenings in the Riads we're also nice. We talked a lot with the guys. We also had a problem with the next accommodation and so we could come back to the riad and ist was like coming home.I can totally recommend the Riad, it was a lovely stay and when we ever come back to Marrakesch we will stay at the Riad Chameleon again.

    The staff was super friendly and very open to answering any questions we had. I would definitely recommend booking their transportation from airport to Riad as the streets are hard to navigate and can be hard to find but the staff gives you an overview on how to get around. They even have afternoon tea with cookies when requested. Will definitely stay here if I come to Marrakech again. Thank you again for the wonderful stay 😊

    We noticed less tourists where this Riad is located. There are still some of other riads around and we didn’t feel unsafe, but it seemed like a less busy area for tourists. The pool is nice and refreshing, but because it’s located next to the reception we only used it for a quick dip.

    We had a wonderful stay at Riad Chameleon. They arranged a transfer from our other Riad in Marrakech, and it was the most comfortable ride in a very nice car. A member of staff came to pick us up and showed us where the Riad was located. We got the warmest welcome from the entire staff (including the lovely cats – Brian Longlegs will be talked about in years to come). Everyone at the Riad was so kind and helpful to show the best way to get to the main attractions. The Riad is absolutely beautiful! Our spacious room was located on the ground floor, but it was very quiet during the night. Breakfast was fine and during our last night the staff arranged a three course dinner for us which we enjoyed on the rooftop terrace (the view is stunning!). A member of staff arranged the same driver again for our transfer to the airport. We would definitely come back to Riad Chameleon if we are going back to Marrakech!

    An absolutely fantastic stay! The property is intimate and beautiful, but the highlight is definitely the care that the staff take to make your stay enjoyable. Murad and Ilyas treated us like family. They explained the area, where to go/what to do, even gave us a little phone in case we needed any help in the medina. They were always happy to cater to any needs and were so welcoming. The rooftop breakfasts are lovely and any trips can be arranged by the riad. The location is slightly away from the centre but very safe. Would definitely recommend!

    Everything about Riad Chameleon was wonderful. It's set in the heart of the Medina, only a 10 minute walk from the hussle and bussle but down a side street, so it's quiet during the night. Walking through the door is like walking into a tranquil paradise. The staff are so welcoming and lovely, always on hand to help with anything they can. Mourad met us from the airport transport and walked us to the Riad. He then sat us down with delicious mint tea and pastries whilst he showed us on the map the best areas to visit and routes to take. We were even given a mobile phone especially to contact the Riad if we got lost or needed help. The bed was large and comfortable, the shower hot and powerful and the aircon very welcome in the 36c heat. The pool was freezing, but it was great to jump into after a day wandering round the hot and busy Medina. We were encouraged to use the Riad as if it was our home, which made us feel so welcome and relaxed. I honestly can't say enough good things about the place. Thank you Mourad and the rest of the lovely staff for making our trip so special. We'll definitely be back.

    Collection from airport was a bit stressful because no one turned up. Quite difficult to sort out with the Riad/Tony. Poor security . Keys to all rooms were left in our room and no one realized until we brought it to their attention. Would be nice to have some shade in the morning to have breakfast. Everybody (not just us) was finding it very hot sitting in the sun with no shade. False impressions from the owners website: 1. That they live there - they don't, they live in the UK 2. The staff employed are all long term - nearly all the people we met were students employed in the last few months.

    Communication prior to arrival with Tony (owner) was very good. Onsite staff very helpful, always willing to go the extra mile. Provision of a mobile phone in case of emergency was reassuring. Location was convenient (usually about a 20 min walk) to most attractions in the Medina.
