We
listed these hotels after making face
to face interviews with their administrations and we were persuaded that they
understand the expectations of the gay people. Our first target is to help gay people to find what
they are looking for. Our motto is "Business
comes next". Besides our member hotels are applying
special discounts
or promotions to our gay clients
such asfree
airport transfers. Moreover, we know that frequently, in some ordinary hotels gay people may encounter
some problems and they are not being treated well by some hotel managements only
for being gay. We should remember that, not most of the Turkish people
are yet very conscious about the gay identity as in the Western
countries. If
you want to adapt yourself with Istanbul's different gay culture more easily,
choosing the right hotel will be a good beginning. Note that our website is open to all hotels
in Istanbul and Turkey, and if you do not find here enough
alternatives, that is only because most hotels in Turkey still avoid
to be advertised on a gay website.
