I have always appreciated Phoenix for something that is easy to miss: the Melrose District has a depth and authenticity to its LGBTQ+ community that makes it more than a tourist destination - it is a real neighborhood with real roots. The three gay hotels in Phoenix our community books most are The Clarendon Hotel & Spa, BW Signature Collection, Red Roof Inn Phoenix - Midtown, and Motel 6-Phoenix, AZ - Airport - 24th Street - a range from boutique spa hotel to budget midtown to airport motel. With 15 gay bars listed on misterb&b and a spring Pride season when the weather is perfect, Phoenix is one of the Southwest's most complete LGBTQ+ destinations. For the best local knowledge, booking through misterb&b is always recommended. 🏳️🌈
