WHERE TO STAY
There are many varied types of hotels, B&Bs and hostels in Brighton with most being either gay-owned or gay-friendly.
From £49 a night there is the fantastic Gullivers Hotel (12a New Steine, gullivershotel. com), a charming, elegant and tranquil Georgian townhouse in central Brighton which is a mix of baroque and contemporary design.
For a gay-run hotel that offers many different rooms there is Legends Hotel which is situated above the famous Legends bar and club (legendsbrighton.com). From £65 per person you can get a beautiful double room with fantastic views and facilities that many other hotels just can’t offer.
They also offer a crash room in two sizes which is just a basic room for you to get your head down for the night. It’s a brilliant idea for anyone who just needs a place to stay and from £30 a night you can’t complain! If you have more cash to splash then the junior suite is for you! From £125 per person you can get one of the best seafront rooms in any Brighton hotel with facilities you would expect at more exclusive 4 star hotels and in a much larger, more luxurious space.
If money is no object then the Hotel Du Vin is for you (2-7 Ship Street, hotelduvin.com ). Prices start at £240 per room for a standard double and the price more than reflects the type of room you get: a beautiful room with five-star facilities and award-winning service. You won’t regret staying here one bit and make sure you check out their fantastic bistro which is an elegant and informal setting for lunch and dinner.
