JW Marriott Absheron Baku Hotel, Luxury hotel in central Baku, Azerbaijan.
The JW Marriott Absheron is a 21-story hotel in central Baku with sweeping views of the city and Caspian Sea. The property features multiple restaurants, a full fitness center, spa facilities, and meeting rooms equipped with modern technology.
The Absheron Hotel, built to architect Mikayil Useynov's design, opened in 1985 under the Soviet Intourist monopoly with 343 rooms on 16 floors; painter Mikail Abdullayev took part in its decoration. It was renovated in 1999, demolished entirely in 2009, and the JW Marriott-managed hotel on the site opened on July 3, 2012.
The hotel carries the name Absheron from the Soviet-era Intourist hotel demolished here in 2009. In the earlier building, the People's Artist of the USSR Mikail Abdullayev took part in the interior decoration, a link between Baku's Soviet-era hospitality and the current Marriott.
Guest rooms feature large windows with city and sea views that help orient visitors to Baku's landscape. The central location provides easy access to other parts of the city for exploring.
