The Scottish gay scene is at its liveliest in the cities, notably, Edinburgh and in Glasgow, but pretty much non-existent in the more rural areas. Scotland has a small but thriving gay and lesbian community which is also strongest in Edinburgh and Glasgow. Edinburgh boasts the famous "Pink Triangle" area centred around Broughton Street off York Place. Glasgow has a much bigger gay scene, however straight bars and clubs in both cities hold gay and lesbian nights.
Gay friendly hotels, guest houses, hostels and other accommodation are plentiful throughout Scotland. Gay friendly accommodation means a warm and friendly welcome to gay and lesbian guests, usually located close to gay bars, gay saunas and gay clubs. Some gay friendly guesthouses may be exclusively gay, but most gay friendly hotels and accommodation welcome all comers!
Please choose from our recommended gay friendly hotels in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Highlands and the rest of Scotland.
