Is Bangkok Safe For Gay Travellers?

Did you know that Thailand is ranked as the most gay-friendly country in Asia?

Homosexuality has been legal in Thailand since 1956. The military accepts citizens regardless of sexual orientation, and in a recent poll, 88.7% of Thais were shown to be accepting of the LGBT community. In 2022, a Partnership Registration Bill for LGBT couples was approved that allows same-sex couples to be recognized as life partners and provides them with the same rights and privileges as straight couples including the option to adopt children.

Bangkok hosted the Thailand Pride Parade in 2022 as the first formal Pride in the city’s history. The capital also hosts the popular Songkran Gay Circuit Party and Asia Circuit Festival.

I’ve traveled to Thailand six times and am always amazed at how friendly and welcoming locals are to the LGBT community. I think Thailand’s famous Drag Cabaret culture is indicative of why the country is considered one of the most trans-friendly destinations on earth.

Where Are The Best Bangkok Gay Hotels?

If you’re an experienced gay globetrotter you’ve likely stayed at gay-owned hotels in famous LGBT travel destinations like Miami, Malaga and Puerto Vallarta.

If you’re looking for luxury gay hotels in Bangkok, you won’t find any exclusively gay-run properties. Sadly the iconic gay hotel in Bangkok called Babylon has now closed. If you’re a budget traveler you’re in luck as the only gay accommodation option in Bangkok today is Blu Cabin Ari Stylish Gay Poshtel. The popular gay hostel offers a selection of twin rooms and a large double bed suite, with common area to meet new friends, outdoor pool, gym, bar and laundry facilities.

Thailand is honestly so gay friendly any hotel in Bangkok is a safe place to stay. You’ll meet many local staff who identify as gay, bi, lesbian or trans working as waiters, bartenders and spa attendants.

So how do we define Bangkok Gay Hotels in this accommodation guide?

We highlight a range of hotels in Bangkok, from midrange to ultra luxurious 5 star properties, to ensure there’s an option for every gay travel budget.

I visited Bangkok for 6 weeks in 2023, visiting over 20 eye-popping art and design hotels that offer exceptional service, chic suites, mouth-watering restaurants, trendy cocktail bars, award winning spas and jaw-dropping rooftop pools.

Many consider Silom as the main gay nightlife hub of Bangkok. Soi 2 caters exclusively to those who like to party in dance clubs, while Soi 4 offers a more relaxed atmosphere with pubs, bars and restaurants. All of the properties featured in this Bangkok Gay Hotels Guide are located within walking distance or a short 20 minute taxi ride away.

There are three neighbourhoods in the city we suggest booking a gay Bangkok hotel stay:

  1. The gay hotels in Bangkok that are most conveniently situated to the LGBT nightlife scene are located near Lumphini Park near popular LGBT bars like DJ Station, G Bangkok and Silom 4 Alley. The Le Meridien, W Bangkok, Banyan Tree and SO/Bangkok are within walking distance.
  2. The trendiest neighbourhood in Bangkok is Sukhumvit, located just north of Lumphini Park. Some of the city’s most beloved hotels are located here such as the Hyatt Regency, Sofitel, Renaissance, and St. Regis. The hotels in Sukhumvit are a short 10 minute taxi ride to Bangkok’s gaybourhood.
  3. Many of Bangkok’s most luxurious hotels sit perched over the Chao Phraya River, just west of the Gay Village. If you’re keen to enjoy a sunset cruise you’ll find gay friendly Bangkok hotels along the river such as the Anantara Riverside, Four Seasons, Capella, Shangri-La, The Peninsula and Millennium Hilton.

If you’re looking to explore more of Thailand once you’re finished planning a fun gay Bangkok hotel getaway explore other regions like Koh SamuiKrabiSukhothaiChiang Mai and Phuket.

Best Gay Hotels In Bangkok

When you’re researching Gay Bangkok Hotels you’ll notice prices can vary wildly within the 4 and 5 star accommodation category.

Here are some things for you to consider when comparing properties:

  • How old is the property? For those looking to book more affordable Bangkok Gay Hotels you can enjoy a suite experience for half the price at Amari, Sindhorn Midtown Vignette Collection and Hyatt Regency compared to more luxurious properties like Four Seasons, Capella and The Peninsula.
  • When are you traveling? High season in Bangkok is November to March. You can likely find a more affordable Gay Bangkok Hotel Package in the shoulder season (September and October) or in the low season May through August.
  • What are the accommodation options? Properties that have simple guest rooms are always more affordable, especially if you aren’t paying a premium for a city or river view. Or splurge on a luxurious suite with an oversized balcony and Club Lounge privileges.
  • Gay Honeymoon Package: contact the hotel to inform them you are booking a honeymoon and inquire about special package deals that might include a couples spa treatment or complimentary dinner at the hotels fine dining restaurant. If you’re booking the trip outside of high season you may even get a free room upgrade!
