    The hotel location is very good, in the middle of the Nizami street. Close to restaurants, cafes, shops Rooms are good and suitable for families. Cleaning services are better than other hotels in Baku. Staff are very helpful. The restaurant at the roof, has good food, nice interior, helpful staff.

    At this hotel, you’re just in the center of Nizami street, walking distance from shops, restaurants, Old city & Corniche This may be noisy at night, with the night life of Nizami street The rooms are very spacious, try to get a room with Balcony, to enjoy your cup of tea with a view Bathrooms are having “shattaf” & toilet papers Breakfast buffet is great, at the roof, with the sound of birds & Baku City view Highly recommend this Hotel

    Very good location. Rooms are very clean and pretty. Every thing else was NOT good enough - the shower mobile handle was broken, no cold water EVER in the sink. When other guests take their shower in the same time...you will lose pressure and there will be no hot water at the same time. The worst thing was the breakfast ! , although verity was fine the quality was really POOR and some of us suffered sutmmack problem after eating the food. I would NOT recommend the stay.

    Overall, my stay was pretty good! 🌟 The location of the hotel is fantastic, with easy access to all the attractions and amenities in the area. 🗺️ The breakfast was delicious, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. 👍 However, I did face a couple of issues. First, the internet connection was not up to par. 📶 It was quite slow and inconsistent, which was a bit frustrating. Secondly, the carpet in the room was not as clean as I expected. 🧹 It could definitely use some extra attention. Lastly, there was a bit of noise during the night, which disrupted my sleep a bit. 🌙 Despite these minor drawbacks, I still had a pleasant experience overall. 😊 The positives definitely outweighed the negatives. I would recommend it for its convenient location, friendly staff, and delicious breakfast. Just be aware of the internet speed, cleanliness of the carpet, and potential noise during the night. 🌟 Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions. Have a great day ahead! 🌞

    This hotel was a total disappointment and desaster. Where do I start? When calling the room service, they just hung up on me saying its closed. Our rooms didnt get cleaned until we asked many times. The staff barely spoke english. The staff was screaming outloud on the hallways talking to eachother. reservations for our group were simply forgotton and people had to share rooms. we had to call for toiletpaper multiple times and the toilet didnt work. they brought a half a toiletrool for us. the blankets were dirty. well i could go on. If at least the staff woud have been nice I woulndt have written this review but they acted like they simply didnt give a damn. the breakfast and loation was decent, view was poor.

    This hotel is good for families too because its location is so ideal as it is located in start of Nizami Street. Everything is available in 5 min walk radius.

    This place cancelled my booking without contacting me on the day of arrival. I arrived in the evening only to discover they had canceled my reservation. No one could tell me why, how, or who, blaming it on the day staff. Lucky to have found another hotel nearby on short notice. But also surprised that afterwards no one contacted me after to apologize or anything. Super disappointed in this place and would not recommend booking here unless you want to risk unprofessionalism like this.

    In short: Excellent location Poor service Below average breakfast Some details: Slow internet, you need to try to connect many times till you connect. They don't understand English so very hard to communicate and when you do order either it doesn't come at all or it takes ages to come. Staff in general are nice.

    Clean room and comfy bed with extra below and blanket. The location is perfect at the busy street but might be little noisy at night.

    It was a somewhat frustrating experience but with easy things to get right, as so many have already said: 1) get the air-conditioning working 2) change the old worn and dirty room carpets 3) use real tissue boxes, not harsh kitchen roll in the bedrooms 4) sort out the hotel taxi scam service (trusting a double the going rate payment to the hotel concierge to arrange a high class taxi, later to be presented with a damaged old dented taxi with a smashed windscreen, with the driver demanding payment at the end of the journey for which we had already paid to the hotel!! (Contrary to the hotel's reply, yes a taxi service was originally booked through Dnata, but it they didn't turn up, so the hotel doorman/porter offered to arrange as already mentioned, witnessed by reception staff. Breakfast was lukewarm to cold on the third day. 6) WiFi comes and goes. 7) whilst friendly, improve the reception service level. So what was good? The location is excellent and central for walking to shops, restaurants, the old city, and the sea front promenade. The hotel restaurant has a lovely rooftop setting with great views, bar, plants, books, a piano, and budgies chirping in many cages (their water needs checking please) add to a special ambience.

    What a beautiful first experience in Baku! Thanks to the great Sapphire City Hotel. From the moment I arrived - they upgraded my room , complimentary - I could check in early, and even with room service from the restaurant the staff came down to my room to take my order. My stay here was so enjoyable! Location is fab! Staff so helpful and I will definitely return and recommend to friends!

  • 4/5 choy i. 6 months ago on Google
    Great hotel, old school contemporary style, not much amenities tho, but at the center of almost everything. It gets a bit crowded outside at night as its when people start going out, occasionally being noisy inside the hotel Food was good too, but not much variety of food selections

  • 2/5 Carola S. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice only on the first view. Big rooms but not clean. Big stains on the carpet and the room was not vacuumed upon arrival and during the 3 day stay. It always itched me when I was in bed - do not want to know why. small windows and a too loud ventilation (climate I had switched off) Breakfast in the morning was not ready when the restaurant opens. Last but not least - the WiFi was also bratty slow

  • 4/5 Alia 1 year ago on Google

  • 1/5 Salim A. 1 year ago on Google
    Worst hotel ever. Not clean at all. The AC doesn’t work we had to open the windows for air and all the noises and smells were coming into our room. Don’t waste your money get another hotel for a little farther and use the app Bolt for transportation.

  • 5/5 Preston C. 7 years ago on Google
    I stay here a lot. almost every time I am in Baku. Extremely nice people, They have been right there every time I needed something. Great location spacious comfortable rooms. Not a 5 star hotel, if you want that then you need to go to the 4 seasons, but for the money - This a great value.

  • 5/5 Benjamin B. 4 years ago on Google
    We visited the restaurant SOCIETE on top of (and I supposed part of) the hotel. It's really excellent! The view is exceptionally good, food and drink just as much. The very friendly service matches the experience. A strong recommendation for a wonderful evening!

  • 5/5 fadi s. 4 years ago on Google
    Very good hotel, very good staff. The location of it is just perfect and the best in the city. The upper floor has panoramic restaurant with highly recommended place for dinner. Inexpensive prices for the food you get. The best in the city for me.

    Absolutely the best hotel experience. The location is right in the Center, very convenient to travel around. The staff especially is very helpful, kind and welcoming. Riad at the front desk is awesome. The bellboy is also very helpful. Room are also big size and very clean. All in all a great experience, highly recommended.
