Luxury Hotels In Baku

Choose The Flame Towers Or Babek Avenue

Fairmont Baku occupies the Flame Towers, overlooking the Old City and the sea. Choose the tower setting when the view and a contemporary hotel environment are part of the appeal. Being able to see the historic center does not place you within its lanes: consider the actual journey back after dinner, as well as the panorama from the room.

The Ritz-Carlton Baku is at 3 Babek Avenue in the Nasimi district. This is another city address for the stay, with visits to Icherisheher and the Caspian promenade planned from that base. Compare its location with your meeting addresses and cultural plans; the hotel choice and the historic quarter are separate decisions.

Give Different Parts Of Baku Their Own Place In The Day

Keep the Old City visit focused enough to appreciate it. Its fortified setting, the Maiden Tower and the Palace of the Shirvanshahs provide a connected introduction to Baku’s older character. The streets between the monuments are part of the historic quarter, rather than merely connections between entrances.

The waterfront offers a different scale and atmosphere from the enclosed historic streets. Choose the boulevard when the appeal is the open Caspian setting; choose Icherisheher for the closer relationship between lanes, walls and individual buildings.

Choose Excursions For A Particular Interest

The Heydar Aliyev Centre adds a modern architectural perspective to a stay shaped by the Old City. Consider both the building and the exhibition you want to see. Ateshgah and Yanardag belong to a different strand of the region’s fire heritage. Their subject is distinct from the modern design of the Centre.
