  Old Street Hotel: Living History Beyond Our Doors

  Welcome to Old Street Hotel — a hotel located in the very heart of ancient Baku. We are situated within the historic fortress walls of Icherisheher (the Old City), a UNESCO World Heritage Site. By choosing us, you are choosing more than just a hotel room — you are gaining the unique opportunity to wake up inside a living museum, where every stone holds centuries of history and countless stories.

  The Magic of the Old City

  Icherisheher is a maze of charming cobblestone streets, antique shops, and ancient mosques. Staying at Old Street Hotel means being surrounded by some of Azerbaijan’s most iconic landmarks:

  • Maiden Tower: The symbol of Baku and one of the most mysterious landmarks of the East is just a few minutes’ walk away.

  • Palace of the Shirvanshahs: This magnificent 15th-century palace complex, a masterpiece of medieval architecture, is within easy walking distance of the hotel.

  • Atmospheric Walks: Explore locations where iconic films, including The Diamond Arm, were filmed, and discover the workshops of local artists tucked away in the quiet lanes of the fortress.

  Where Eras Meet: Ancient Heritage and Modern Life

  What makes our location truly special is that while staying within the peaceful atmosphere of an ancient fortress, you remain just steps away from the vibrant life of the modern city:

  • Philharmonic Garden (Governor’s Garden): Just beyond the fortress gates lies one of the city’s oldest parks — a peaceful oasis of greenery, classical music, and elegant fountains.

  • Baku Boulevard: A 5–7-minute walk takes you to the Caspian Sea waterfront, where the sea breeze meets the futuristic silhouette of the Flame Towers.

  • City Center: Fountains Square and Nizami Street, with their countless restaurants, stylish boutiques, and vibrant evening lights, are just a 10-minute walk away.

  An Immersion in Culture

  Some of the country’s finest museums are located close to the hotel:

  • Azerbaijan Carpet Museum: A masterpiece of modern architecture housing a unique collection dedicated to the art of carpet weaving.

  • Museum of Miniature Books: Home to one of the world’s most unique collections of rare miniature publications.

  • Azerbaijan National Museum of Art: Located in a historic mansion, the museum offers a fascinating journey through the treasures of Azerbaijani and world art.

  Your Advantage

  Staying in the Old City offers rare moments of tranquility. Enjoy your morning coffee while the city is still waking up, or take a peaceful evening stroll along the illuminated ancient walls after the tourist groups have left the fortress.
