Los Angeles, the ‘City of Angels,’ has everything a gay traveler would want. There’s the glitz and glamor of Hollywood, the endless shopping in Beverly Hills, and Santa Monica Beach on the coast.
The main gayborhood of West Hollywood (nicknamed WeHo) is where most of the gay action happens, but it can be found in other areas.
There are plenty of accommodation options, from the best in luxury to budget hostels. Some are steps away from gay venues, while others are absolute beachfront.
LA isn’t a cheap destination, and hotels may be higher than many gay travelers expect, but it’s well worth the expense for one of the US’ most popular destinations.
There aren’t any officially gay-owned and operated hotels or resorts in Los Angeles, but that doesn’t mean the pink dollar isn’t welcome.
Hotels in West Hollywood, in particular, cater to many gay travelers every day of the year, and you’ll likely find staff members who bat for the same team as you.
There are three main gayborhoods in LA. Gay venues are primarily located in West Hollywood, affectionately nicknamed WeHo. There’s a Rainbow Crossing on the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and North San Vicente Boulevard, and there are a stack of gay venues on either side of the crosswalk. WeHo institutions like The Abbey, Mickey’s, and Hi Tops are all found there. There are loads of hotels nearby, many located right on Sunset Boulevard, only a 3-minute drive away.
Silver Sands, in Los Angeles’s east, is an up-and-coming gay area; there are saunas and cruise clubs there. While there aren’t a lot of hotels there, as it’s a predominantly residential area, it’s easy to get to by the metro line.
Downtown LA is becoming more gay; there are a few permanent venues there with pop-up bars appearing. There are numerous hotels in the area, all welcoming gay guests.
While it’s not specifically gay, Santa Monica Beach is where all the beautiful people head to sunbathe, and there are some stunning beachfront resorts there.
