"The hotel in itself is fine. I booked a junior suite which was good value. However, if you consult a map it does not appear far to the city centre. In fact the hotel is "trapped" behind 3 enormous roads un-crossable for pedestrians and with only one underpass in the least convenient direction. There ..."

"Reza was the best guide for us when in the property, though he was the one securing the place. The entire staff was great, but Reza stood out amongst all. Probably they can work around their room service or cleanliness, in general. We had to ask for ‘clean my room’ service. A bit far from the happening ..."

"Apartments are fantastic, spotlessly clean, staff are very friendly and helpful. apartments are outside the city by about 15 mins but there is a free shuttle several times a day or taxis are cheap and the service bus which stops outside is even cheaper. I would recommend a visit and loved Baku."

Enjoyed my visit to the Hairy Lemon bar near Fountain Square. Irish bars DO NOT serve Draught Guinness on tap only in cans at inflated prices. Best sticking to local beers such as EFES.

Really impressed by Baku. People respectful to each other and to visitors. Great architecture. Good and cheap Metro system. Good community atmosphere with many families enjoying communal areas in the evenings. (People drive VERY fast in this city!)

What a lovely City. So Clean and a good blend of Modern and Old Buildings. Would describe it as "Where East meets West". Better than Dubai. One thing that should be more evident is the Pricing. At least twice there was an attempt to rip us off.

Baku is a vibrant, exciting and safe city to visit for foreigners. English is widely spoken across tourist locations, hotels and the main airport. Baku is also extremely tolerant and flexible to a variety of cultures.
