City breaks - Gay - London accommodation

Looking for a place to rest your head shouldn’t pose too much of a problem in London. The city has had rooms available since the days of the Roman Empire, albeit with slightly fewer conveniences.

Whether you’re a fan of minimalist modernism or cheerfully cheap, the city is sure to have the suite to suit. We’ve even got a few that are exclusively gay, if a pink palace is your idea of perfection.

When it comes to deciding on location, our transport network makes every neighbourhood convenient. Mayfair and the West End are where you will find the bulk of the luxury options, including the opulent Dorchester on Park Lane. The Great Eastern Hotel near Liverpool Street station is now one of the hippest spots in town to set down in. 

Boutique chic at a bargain is available at Myhotel in Bloomsbury. Deals often bring the price down below £100 a night and it’s a mere five minutes away from the British Museum and the lights and action of Soho.

For somewhere exclusively gay, look no further than the Philbeach. Located in Earl’s Court, the Philbeach is a friendly establishment situated a hop, skip and jump away from the Earl’s Court ghetto. Be sure to enjoy a meal at the in-house restaurant, Wilde About Oscar, before you depart.

If you’re thinking of staying for an extended period or you prefer the comfort of a private apartment, Outlet Holiday Rentals is the place to turn to. Outlet has hundreds of private apartments on their books available for rental period of anything from a day to a lifetime. Most of the properties are centrally located and the company is gay owned and operated.
