About the location:
Old-world elegance along the Caspian Sea. Straddling the Middle East, Europe and Asia, the enigmatic capital of Azerbaijan sits on the coast of the opal-blue waters of the Caspian Sea, with the Caucasus Mountains to the west. Our beaux-arts–style Hotel is perched along the waterfront in the heart of central Baku, with the medieval walls of the Inner City just steps away and a trio of flame-shaped, modern skyscrapers flickering nearby. It’s a contrast that perfectly sums up our evolving city: ancient, modern and a little daring, all at once. Join us for breakfast on the terrace at Zafferano, followed by a relaxing treatment in our sun-lit penthouse Spa, then come discover Baku with us.
