Landmark Hotel

Top choice in Baku


Stunning views complement suave decor softened with patchwork headboards and cobble-tiled bathrooms with giant rain-shower heads. All rooms count as 'executive', allowing access to the top floor self-service bar, while the bay views are superb from the breakfast room with its excellent buffet spread. There's also a sizeable gym, long-if-narrow swimming pool and sauna.

The entrance is oddly hard to spot: pass what seems to be just a security desk then a series of very bold murals and take the lift to the 19th floor for check-in.
