Stays That Slay: Thailand

Our two gay Thailand tours (Temples & Beaches and New Year Celebration) are renowned for overwhelming the senses: the sights, sounds, smells, colours and flavours will make you feel alive. But all that invigoration also warrants a wonderful retreat to recuperate for the next round. So here’s a sneak peek at where we’ll slumber during these adventures…

So Sofitel Hotel, Bangkok

A truly serene escape awaits gay travellers in the heart of Thailand’s big city. This five-star property offers a sexy infinity pool, luxurious designer touches and a boutique vibe.

U Hotel, Chiang Mai

Settle into this impressive resort featuring a pool, a gorgeous garden and a convenient fitness centre in Thailand’s mountainous north. Architectural and design elements are a celebration of modern Thai culture.

Amari Vogue, Krabi

Our sublime accommodations in Krabi overlook the Andaman Sea and are an easy one-minute walk from Tubkaek Beach. Beyond the beach, we’re only a short stroll from stunning cliffs, lush jungle, waterfalls and caves. The stylish design, inviting pool, and beachfront restaurant and bar are all just cherries on top of this ravishing resort.

Hotel Clover Patong, Phuket

We selected a modern hotel and resort located in the heart of buzzing Patong to finish off our tour. From the friendly Thai staff to the plush bedding, you’ll get the impression you’re their most important guest to date.

Hotel Indigo Patong, Phuket [2025 departures only]

Our final property certainly ups the ante with its “wow” factor, starting with stylish rooftop pool partially cantilevered off the side of the building! Stop into the restaurant, designed with a mosaic of tiki-style furnishings, or get your heart pumping with a workout in the sprawling gym. The vibrant palette continues into the guest rooms (and even the bathrooms), making for cheerful vibe that sets the mood for your entire stay!
