Why to choose hotels recommended by us
If you wish to immerse yourself in
Istanbul’s vibrant gay life, selecting the right hotel
is a crucial starting point. It’s widely understood that
gay individuals often face challenges in conventional
hotels, where they may encounter mistreatment from
staff. Therefore, making an informed choice of hotel is
essential to avoid unpleasant experiences.
Where Should You Stay in Istanbul?
The location of your hotel in Istanbul
is as important as its being a gay friendly
establishment, because public transport isn’t easy to
use, and there’s always a lot of traffic in Istanbul.
For this reason we will also be classifying hotels based
on their location on this page:
These gay friendly hotels are all very centrally
located, all within walking distance to most popular gay
bars and clubs and other LGBT friendly venues around
Taksim. Harbiye, Galata, Beyoglu districts. There are
many other cafes, bars, shops, bookstores, restaurants,
