Positives

This is the fourth time I have come to this sanatorium. This time, as usual, I liked everything. The staff work at the highest level, everyone is trying and everyone is friendly. It is very good that you made additional procedures.

Negatives

But there is a little fly in the ointment of a wonderful stay. Special attention to this. 1. The abundance of stray dogs both on the territory of the sanatorium and outside it. Please pay special attention to this problem also on the part of the city administration. 2. Terrible Internet. I need to work several hours a day. The stability of the connection is constantly broken and the speed is at the level of the last century. The noiseless coverage and availability of the Internet in the area around the building are pleasing. But I think it is not a problem to expand the coverage to the entire territory and make it stable and high-speed. 3. The inability to pay with MIR cards. Guys, I will tell you a secret in Azerbaijan there is a Russian bank VTB. Open an account there and get a terminal for cashless payment with MIR cards. I assure you that you will receive an increase in additional services, since Russian citizens will not need to figure out how to transfer money and so on. Such a terminal works great in a cafe at the Ganja airport. 4. Why did they reduce the time for baths? Last year it was 15 minutes, now it is 10 minutes. And in a year it will be 5? This is not good. Since in other sanatoriums the time remained the same - 15 minutes.

I have stayed in many sanatoriums and I can say that the Karabakh sanatorium surpasses all of them in terms of service and food.

Negatives

Paid procedures have increased. Free transfer to the station has been cancelled. The cost of a transfer of 20 manat to the station with a distance of 10 minutes does not justify itself.

It is very noisy in the medical department, I would suggest keeping quiet and starting with the staff. And the doors on the 4th floor where the procedures are happening are unbearably banging.

I liked absolutely everything. The chef (Teymur Bey) personally greeted all the guests every day. Each meal was in the buffet format, with thousands of dishes - at least 5 types of hot in the morning, at lunch and dinner. The same number of appetizers, salads, cold cuts, fruits, sweet desserts. In the evening, there is live music and dancing in the summer garden. The surrounding area is beautiful, walking areas, recreation areas - everything is thought out for the convenience of vacationers. The medical block is also equipped with high-quality equipment. All the staff is polite and treats exclusively as royalty. I would also like to note the management of the sanatorium (Orhan Bey) does not leave any issue unattended.

Negatives

Time passed very quickly.)

Positives

Excellent hotel, good food, very nice staff, especially Nanny Maria from the children's room, helped us a lot with a 2-year-old child. We took the largest two-room room, the view from the large terrace is super. The room facilities are excellent.

Negatives

Very low quality of air conditioning in the room. Hot, does not cool, only slightly ventilates, for comparison in the main reception hall it is much cooler - it means that they monitor it there. Horrible audibility behind the door in the room. We had a suite with adjoining rooms to other rooms. It was terrible, the squeal of children who just came to the room at 12 at night was just terrible, they screamed as if they were in my room, woke us and our child up naturally. Soundproofing needs to be worked on Water flows out of the shower onto the floor. Everything is great at dinner - except for coffee, it is impossible to drink free coffee, it is embarrassing. For money, cappuccino is 2-3 out of 5, either super hot or without foam, or both. The staff at the package treatment procedures actively begs for money, we give it but feel uncomfortable. Pay more to the medical staff In general, these disadvantages can be dealt with, the hotel is very good. But - I categorically do not recommend applying for a transfer to Sanatoriums!! They sent a terrible thirty-year-old car called a Mercedes E-class, without seat belts for passengers!! With a broken windshield (apparently an unbuckled passenger flew into it with his head) they categorically refused to provide a child seat for a two-year-old child! The driver violated traffic rules, did not keep his distance and once almost flew into a guardrail because he was looking at his phone. The whole trip was spent in nerves and fear for life. Be careful when ordering a transfer if the safety of the trip is important to you. There are other cars and drivers, fortunately!!

On May 14, 2024, flight number J20071 by the airline AZERBAIJAN AIRLINES from Heydar Allyev Airport in Baku to Vienna with a departure at 8:00 a.m. local time charged us a fee for 1 piece of luggage weighing up to 23 kilograms in the amount of 146.50 AZN. In reservation number 534356764, the service 1 piece of luggage weighing up to 23 kilograms was ordered and paid for in the name of Juraj Nagy. In the electronic Boardig Pass from Call Center 24/7, this information was not mentioned. Employees of AZERBAIJAN AIROLINES at Heydar Allyev Airport charged us a fee of AZN 146.50.

It would be nice to have a Pharmacy branch right in the hotel.

Negatives

On May 12, we booked an excursion from the sanatorium to Gabala- bus without air conditioning (although they assured that there was air conditioning). The guide didn't tell us anything - he just rode with us. Long queues for procedures (especially 4-chamber baths) - no one respects the given time - some improvement work needs to be done here.

Very friendly and helpful staff, this also applies to the SPA, incredibly tasty food. The restaurant is a five plus. The room we lived in was very comfortable. Good entertainment program in the evenings. Very pleased with the treatment.

Negatives

We kindly ask you to pay attention to the transfer. They sent us a dirty, old, smoke-filled car WITHOUT SEAT BELTS in the back seat. We were not given the driver's name and car number in advance. There are no complaints about the driver, he is a very nice person. I drove 360 km in 3.5 hours. We were a little scared, we flew from Sweden. As for a five-star hotel, this kind of transfer over such a distance is completely inappropriate. And we were not alone with our complaints. If something happened, what claim would my insurance company make? I think that the hotel does not quite understand the peculiarities of working with tourists from the European Union.

The bath treatment is excellent, the applications, magnetic therapy are all very effective.

Negatives

They impose unnecessary paid procedures, especially nutritionists and ENT specialists. After the procedures, it was not possible to rest properly - the rooms were being renovated, noise, the smell of paint. The sauna and swimming pool were also under renovation.

Everything was just perfect, the accommodation and food... polite staff, cleanliness of the room, bathrobes were changed every day and new slippers were given. Special thanks to the chefs for the delicious and varied food, a lot of greens, vegetables, fruits, delicious pastries.

Negatives

There are few free medical procedures, and paid ones are expensive... And we could also congratulate my wife on her birthday, there weren’t that many people in the sanatorium at that time...

Wonderful sanatorium. Large area, well maintained. Gorgeous vegetation. Convenient location, cozy rooms. Everywhere is clean. The menu is beyond praise! We really enjoyed. The treatment is good. The staff is polite and always ready to help if you have any questions.

Negatives

The only thing I would like to say is that the time specified in the procedure receipt card is not always observed. This happens because patients come whenever they want and set up a waiting list. I think you need to strictly follow the schedule! But this question is for the management of the sanatorium, because... The staff themselves cannot strictly control so as not to offend the people who come for the procedures. Otherwise everything is great! Thank you all so much!

Excellent hotel. Only the hotel park deserves five stars. Modern and very beautiful rooms. Cleanliness everywhere. The cleaning is perfect. In general, all the service in the hotel is at a high level. Everything we asked was always fulfilled immediately. The food is delicious. There were always interesting animations in the evening. We had a very good time. As for the procedures, their variety is amazing. And the specialists are of a very high class. My husband and I were very pleased. We will definitely come here again.

Negatives

There is no negativity. Wish. Since this is, after all, a medical sanatorium, it is not clear what small children should do there. A child cried behind our wall for several nights. This certainly got in the way, but it didn’t spoil the overall impression. Well, the queues to see doctors for examinations are a little annoying. And everything is perfect.

The area around the sanatorium is well maintained. Very friendly staff

Negatives

The food leaves much to be desired, not worthy of 5 stars (we didn’t eat anything else except chicken, since the only meat was meatballs and cutlets). There was very little fish. Out of the stated 18 procedures, we were prescribed only 12, I don’t remember exactly. We lived on the first floor, the smell was in the room, it had to be with an open balcony.
