Konumu ve hizmeti hayal ettigimden bile daha fazlasiydi. Her seyiyle dort dortluktu. Calisanlar son derece guleryuzlu, yardimsever, icten ve cozum odakli.

Cons:

Sevmedigim tek bir sey bile yok.

Идеальный вариант для посещения Баку!
Pros:

Местоположение супер, и старый город рядом и набережная и известные магазины, торговая улица, рестораны, магазин, обменники

Cons:

Единственный небольшой минус: невозможность подъехать такси, мы сделали два круга по старому городу, а нужно было подъехать со стороны Bulgari. При отъезде молодой человек с ресепшен помог с чемоданом дойти до такси, спасибо большое!

Loved my stay at The Merchant Baku
Pros:

Location of the hotel, very near to the old town… a couple of minutes.
Huge size of the room. Decor. Staff were very warm and welcoming. Got an early check in too. About 25-30 mins from the airport in early morning.
Walkable to all the touristy places, promenade etc.

Cons:

Breakfast spread could have been better, especially for vegetarians

Pleasant stay, but breakfast could be improved
Pros:

Spacious room, especially the bath room that came with both a bath and a shower. Comfortable beds. Friendly staff at the reception. Great style/decor. Excellent location in the old city of Baku

Cons:

Breakfast was disappointing: we weren’t properly welcomed and the man who seemed to be in charge was rather curt. While clearing our table and taking away some dirty plates they also took our knives and forks, leaving us with no cutlery to continue eating. It took a while to get new cutlery, after getting up and having to ask for it myself. When I asked for fresh orange juice I was told it wasn’t available, although I clearly saw someone drinking it at the table next to us. Lastly, the breakfast area is basically the lobby, which can get rather hot on a sunny day due to the glass roof. All in all, we expected more in terms of breakfast from a high end hotel like this.
