I have always thought Hong Kong is one of the most genuinely exciting cities in Asia to visit as an LGBTQ+ traveler - the Soho area on Hong Kong Island has long been one of the region's most active gay scenes, and the city's international character means professional welcome is the standard at well-established hotels. The three hotels the misterb&b gay community books most in Hong Kong are Bishop Lei International House, Burlington Hotel, and YHA Mei Ho House Youth Hostel - all centrally located with easy MTR access to the entire city. All three carry the misterb&b non-discrimination charter. For the best local knowledge, booking through misterb&b is always recommended. 🏳️🌈
