Gay hotels on misterb&b
misterb&b now offers the exciting opportunity to book gay and gay-friendly hotels everywhere in the world, as an alternative to our current community-based room and apartment sharing service with 310,000 hosts in 135 countries. Our portfolio of hotels has been selected by the misterb&b team, and adheres to our mission and vision of providing a safe, welcoming accommodation experience for the global LGBTQ community. |
Why adding gay hotels?
In certain destinations, we have a limited number of active hosts, and we believe adding selected hotels will offer a great alternative for our community. We also want to address the needs of gay travelers who may occasionally be more interested in the location/services/amenities offered by hotels rather than in a great experience with a misterb&b host.
This new offering of gay and gay-friendly hotels will welcome even more people to the misterb&b global community of gay travelers, and help the LGBTQ community travel more safely and feel welcome wherever they go.
Additionally, we will develop new features that will allow guests to connect with one another when they book hotels through misterb&b. Connecting the community while traveling has always been a core value and goal for us.

How did we select these hotels?
As gay is in our DNA, it was paramount that these hotels not only promoted a welcoming attitude and acceptance of the LGBTQ community, but that they also appealed to LGBTQ travelers. We came up with four main categories:
|
|
Gay hotels selected by misterb&bA gay hotel is a hotel, guesthouse, resort or B&B which accepts gay guests either exclusively or in the main. In some cases, these hotels present themselves as “straight-friendly” or “hetero-friendly”. |
|
|
Gay-friendly hotels selected by misterb&bTo select and designate these gay-friendly hotels, we had to verify their welcoming attitude and acceptance of the LGBTQ community. We considered many criteria including the following: support or affiliation to LGBTQ organizations such as the IGLTA, TagApproved, the NGLCC (USA), the LGBTNetwork, etc.; efforts to reach out to the LGBTQ community (LGBTQ section on their websites, marketing spent on LGBTQ outlets, staff training (Out Now), etc.); and HRC ratings (USA). |

This hotel has signed the misterb&b LGBTQ welcoming charterWhile we have curated all hotels on offer, some hotels go that extra step to affirm their acceptance of the LGBTQ community and misterb&b guests, by signing the misterb&b Welcoming Charter. This is what they have committed to: • We certify that the hotel management and hotel staff welcome all people regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity or expression. • Further we agree to challenge homophobic and transphobic behavior and ensure a positive and welcoming environment for our guests. • Through a courteous attitude that excludes judgment, our hotel will work to ensure a peaceful stay for its LGBTQ clientele (information, safety, quality of service and discretion). |

Standard Hotels offered through misterb&bWe have also selected some standard hotels that we believe are a good fit for LGBTQ travelers. Why? Thanks to their location, services, amenities, rates, and their good overall reputation, we believe these hotels appeal to LGBTQ travelers in general. At this point though, we have not been able to verify their welcoming attitude and acceptance of the LGBTQ community. Nonetheless, we continue to ensure hotels with a history of homophobic behavior or homophobic owners are not listed on misterb&b. |
