What is an LGBT-friendly hotel?
LGBT-friendly hotels, also known as gay-friendly hotels, welcome gay travellers and travellers who identify as LGBTQIA+. Expedia has worked with the Interrnational Gay and Lesbian Travel Association (IGLTA) to compile a great selection of gay-friendly hotels worldwide. These hotels and accommodation facilities are affiliated with IGLTA and operate in agreement with the association's code of ethics. They are considered “LGBT Welcoming”.
LBGT-friendly hotels in Scandinavia operate in a spirit of inclusiveness. They prioritize a diverse and inclusive environment in which guests (and staff) are welcomed and respected, where guests are not obliged to declare nor hide their sexual orientation.
What Does LGBTQ+ Mean?
LGBTQ+ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (or questioning) and others. It is used to describe people’s sexual orientation or non-binary gender identities. The term refers to the community as a whole. LGBTQIA+ is also used to explicitly include those who identify as intersex and asexual (or ally).
What can I expect from a gay-friendly Scandinavia hotel?
Stay at a gay-friendly hotel and you’ll get a warm friendly welcome from a community you belong to. You don’t have to hide your same-sex relationship or sexuality when you check-in. Staff can help you understand the local gay scene and LGBTQ+ culture. You’ll also be around like-minded people, often including the staff, so you can relax and enjoy your trip.
Some gay-friendly hotels go the extra mile and offer community-specific packages, tours exclusively for gay men or lesbian women, and opportunites for social interaction. This could be in common spaces within the hotel, through organized events, or tours that offer the opportunity for authentic local experiences with other members of the LGBT community. You may also enjoy discounts for local gay clubs and access to community-friendly events too.
There are also a select number of gay-friendly hotels that offer honeymoon or wedding ceremonies for same-sex couples.
