Art Gallery Hotel
Art-forward boutique. Dark pastel pink accents, original artworks in every room, glass-atrium restaurant, lobby café named after a beloved Azerbaijani painter. Feels more like a private collection than a hotel corridor.
Book a room with a balcony facing Neftchilar Ave — you get both sea views and a direct look at the F1 circuit. Higher category but worth it.
Why It Matters
One of the few hotels in the South Caucasus where the art program is genuinely serious — Romero Britto created exclusive pieces for the property, Julian Voss-Andreae installed a bespoke sculpture, and rooms feature Frette Italian linen on Tempur-Pedic beds. It also sits on the actual Formula 1 street circuit, so rooms with balconies face the track.
A 30-room boutique hotel inside a restored 1909 building right on Neftchilar Avenue, steps from the Maiden Tower and the Old City walls. The building was once connected to the neighboring Hajinski House — built for an oil-boom-era magnate — and the hotel opened in 2019 as a dedicated showcase for Azerbaijani art, then underwent a grand reopening in 2024. Every corridor is hung with original work: Romero Britto pop-art pieces made exclusively for the property, silkscreen portraits by Russell Young, sculptures, and Azerbaijani Impressionist paintings. Caspian Sea views from balcony rooms, the Formula 1 Baku City Circuit running right outside the front door.
Where You'll Stay
5 room types available
Duplex Junior Suite with Balcony
A duplex layout across 40–45 sqm with a dedicated living area (sofa, TV, coffee table) and a separate bedroom. The balcony delivers those Caspian Sea views. The split-level design adds a loft-house quality that several guests have specifically called out as a highlight. Max 3 adults + 1.
42 sqmExecutive Suite with Balcony
The top room tier at 40–45 sqm with a separate living area, bedroom, and balcony. Large windows maximize Caspian Sea views. All the same Frette/Tempur-Pedic touches, with the added benefit of suite-level space and a more pronounced separation between living and sleeping zones.
42 sqmGallery King Room
Same 32–37 sqm footprint as the sea-view category but with a city-facing orientation. Still packed with art and the same Frette/Tempur-Pedic bedding lineup. Good option for those who want the art-hotel experience at a more accessible price point and don't need a sea-facing balcony.
King · 35 sqmGallery King Sea View Room
The entry point into the hotel's art world. Ranging 32–37 sqm, these rooms display original artworks on every wall and come with a king bed dressed in Frette Italian sheets on a Tempur-Pedic mattress. Sea-view versions include a balcony directly overlooking the Caspian and the F1 circuit. In-room safe, minibar fridge, flat-screen TV, coffee and tea facilities, blackout curtains, soundproofed windows.
King · 35 sqmGallery Twin Room
Stepping up to 40–45 sqm, these rooms feature a separate living area with sofa, TV, and coffee table alongside the main sleeping space. Large windows and, on select configurations, a balcony with Caspian Sea views. Good choice for two guests who prefer separate beds without going full-suite.

Accessible to all guests at any time.
The Formula 1 Azerbaijan Grand Prix street circuit runs directly along Neftchilar Avenue in front of the hotel. Rooms and balconies on the Neftchilar-facing side have direct sightlines to the track. During race weekend the location is prime.
