I have always said that Houston's Montrose neighborhood is one of the most significant LGBTQ+ communities in the American South - deep roots, real diversity, and a political weight that goes back decades. The three gay hotels in Houston our community books most are Elegant Studio Montrose-Amalfi @ The ItalianPlaza, Downtowner Inns - Houston Downtown & Convention Center, and Aloft Houston Downtown - all well-placed for Montrose or downtown Houston. With 13 gay bars listed on misterb&b and one of the South's largest Pride events in June, Houston is a destination that earns serious attention. For the best local knowledge, booking through misterb&b is always recommended. 🏳️🌈
