The hype
Guests love the massive rooms and the gym, but often feel the 'hotel' vibe is missing from the arrival experience.
The Landmark Hotel
$150-230/ natt
Boka detta om You're a business traveler or solo explorer who wants a massive gym, a serious lap pool, and a room with floor-to-ceiling views of the Caspian.
Varför människor älskar det
- The 28-meter indoor 'Sky Pool' is arguably the best swimming spot in the city
- Rooms are located on high floors (13-18), guaranteeing silence and killer views
- The 2,500 sqm health club is a full-blown wellness center, not a sad hotel gym
Snabb Överblick: It feels less like a hotel and more like staying in a wealthy executive's corporate apartment—efficient, spacious, and slightly sterile.
Recenserat av @thevoguefrosting: I stayed in a corner suite at The Landmark and the views blew me away. Waking up to the sun rising over the Caspian Sea was the highlight of my trip. The room is huge and super modern—definitely ask for a high floor to get this exact perspective!

- You need a serious workout or swim during your trip
- You prefer floor-to-ceiling windows and natural light over cozy, dark rooms
- You want to be walking distance to the promenade but away from the Old City tourist crush
