Holiday Inn Baku  

On Baku's waterfront, an upscale 4-star seaside hotel sits a 4-minute walk from Port Baku Mall and a short drive from Azure Shopping Center. Cultural hotspots like the Azerbaijan State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre, Heydar Aliyev Palace, Fountain Square and Government House are all close by.

The property offers 223 air-conditioned rooms with minibars and LCD TVs. Expect private bathrooms with tubs or showers, complimentary toiletries and hair dryers, plus safes, desks and phones with free local calls. On-site shops, a hair salon, concierge and wedding services add local polish.

Pamper at the spa (massages, body treatments and facials), or take a dip in the indoor pool and sweat it out in the sauna and fitness center—perfect for sea-breeze mornings and late-night dips. There's a bar/lounge and 24-hour room service; buffet breakfast is available for a fee.

A 24-hour business center and six meeting rooms support events and meetings. Complimentary wired and wireless internet keeps you connected, and a 24-hour front desk and safe-deposit box add convenience.

On-site restaurant Marina 18 serves Mediterranean fare for lunch and dinner, while the main dining spot offers breakfast, lunch and dinner service. Enjoy drinks at the bar/lounge or order 24-hour in-room dining.
