Elite Status: Hyatt Globalist
Hyatt Regency Baku is a 5-star category 3 Hyatt property that is located some 3 miles from downtown Baku. The grounds of the property are lovely, and they have the most amazing service staff there.
I spent two nights here on a cash rate.
Check In/Check Out
Both check in and check out was fast. I also requested a 4pm check out, and that was honored with no issues.
Room
I was upgraded to a lovely Regency Suite, which is generously-sized. Upon entry, there is a guest bathroom to the right, and a closet. Beyond the entryway is a living room with a 5-seater sofa and a large coffee table. There’s also a four-seater rectangular dining set. Atop a little console are coffee/tea-making amenities.
The bedroom is of a good size, with the king-sized bed in the middle. There’s a work desk and lounge chair by the window, and a mini-fridge by the TV console.
There are power outlets by the bed, and the wifi is decent.
Additionally, I also received a welcome amenity of a box of chocolates and a bowl of fruit.
Bathroom
The large bathroom has a double-sink vanity, toilet, bidet, tub, and shower.
They stock Portico amenities, which is fine by me.
Food
Breakfast for globalists is served in their ground floor restaurant, and the spread is generous. They have an egg station, and at least six hot options. Their pastries selection is also amazing. More incredibly, the hotel actually has a section for special dietary needs, e.g. diabetic, gluten-free, etc.
Their outdoor terrace is really lovely.
Service
The service in this hotel is outstanding. Ms Aziza at breakfast gave suggestions of a local egg dish to try at breakfast, and I’m glad I took her suggestion. Mr. Nizami at the club lounge also provided really attentive service.
Club Lounge
Located on the 7th floor, the club lounge has evening cocktail service from 6 to 8. They serve an excellent array of canapés. The double-story lounge is also a lovely space to sit in.
Amenities
They have a lovely lap pool, and a large gym.
Overall
Although Hyatt Regency Baku is located some ways from most tourist sites, it has a lot going for it. It has lovely grounds featuring a garden, excellent pool and gym, and above all, they have amazing staff.
