Gay hotel barcelona
This is our comprehensive gay Barcelona travel guide setting out the best gay hotels, bars, clubs, events, and more, to stimulate your holiday.
Barcelona is one of the most open and diverse cities we've ever been to. Not only is it tolerant towards gay travelers, it practically rolls out the red carpet for us! With a booming gay village, loads of excellent hangouts, and fantastic festivals, Barcelona is a pumping city begging to be consumed.
We've begun to consider the city as a second home – its frivolous nightlife scene, the huge LGBTQ community, and stunning weather make it impossible to wait away for too long.

The suites are particularly attractive, with extra-large beds, iPod station, and a private furnished terrace and solarium.
