A question guests often ask us: how many suites are there here?
In Baku the answer is: 23 of the 52 categories are suites. Add a junior suite and three apartments. Nearly half of what is on offer in this city is more than a room.
It is unevenly spread: The Ritz-Carlton Baku alone offers 29 categories, among them 14 suites and the three apartments. At the Fairmont Baku Flame Towers it is six suites against six rooms – one to one. At the JW Marriott Absheron Baku it is three suites, one junior suite and seven rooms.
Our travel advisors will give you the square metres for any category you are interested in.
Where to Stay in Baku: Sabail and Nasimi
Our recommendation for the lowest entry, for Accor points and for a credit: the Fairmont Baku Flame Towers in the Sabail district.
JW Marriott Absheron Baku · NasimiOur recommendation for the widest choice and for apartments: The Ritz-Carlton Baku in Nasimi – 29 categories, more than the other two together.
Our recommendation for everything in between: the JW Marriott Absheron Baku, also in Nasimi.
For orientation: Sabail is the district on the water where the Flame Towers stand – three towers shaped like flames, their façades played as fire after dark. Nasimi adjoins it to the north and is the busy part of town. Between them lies Icherisheher, the walled old city with the Maiden Tower and the Palace of the Shirvanshahs, both UNESCO World Heritage. Along the water runs the Boulevard on the Caspian, and above the city stands Zaha Hadid’s Heydar Aliyev Center.

When it is most pleasant: from April to June and from September to October. In spring the peninsula is green; in autumn the khazri wind blows less sharply.
When to book early: for Novruz in March, the Persian new year, marked in Azerbaijan by leaping over fires, and for race weekends on the street circuit.
When to think twice: in July and August – hot, and the wind brings no relief.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in July exactly as in March.
How long to stay: three nights – one for the old city and the Boulevard, one for the museums of the new town and one for the rock art of Gobustan and the mud volcanoes.
You earn points and status at all three: ALL (Accor) at the Fairmont Baku Flame Towers and Marriott Bonvoy at the JW Marriott Absheron Baku and The Ritz-Carlton Baku.
The Caspian, the Old City and Exclusive Services in a 5-Star Hotel
What our travel advisors arrange most often in Baku is the trip to Gobustan – where dancers and boats scratched into the rock are twelve thousand years old, and where the ground right beside them bubbles as a mud volcano.

And the cooking, which draws Persian, Turkish and Caucasian lines together: plov with saffron from the Absheron peninsula; dolma in vine leaves; qutab, thin stuffed flatbreads off the griddle; sturgeon and caviar from the Caspian; pomegranates, which here also become wine; and tea in a tulip-shaped glass, taken with jam instead of sugar.
At all three hotels breakfast, a room upgrade subject to availability, a late check-out, a welcome gift and a loyalty programme are part of the stay.
