Copenhagen, Denmark one of the most beautiful cities I have ever visited (and expensive in the same time) with great architectural, lots of excellent coffee shops and super friendly with the gay and lesbian community. The gay parade in Copenhagen held on 19th of August attracts thousands of visitors to this nordic city. But where to stay in Copenhagen during the gay parade and in gay friendly hotels Copenhagen?
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) rights in the Kingdom of Denmark are some of the most extensive in the world. The Kingdom consists of the Realm of Denmark a sovereign state compromising three constituent countries: Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands.
In Denmark, same-sex sexual activity was legalized in 1933, and since 1977, the age of consent has been equally set to 15, regardless of sexual orientation or gender.Denmark was the first country in the world to grant legal recognition to same-sex unions in the form of registered partnerships in 1989.
Copenhagen, Denmark’s capital, sits on the coastal islands of Zealand and Amager. It’s linked to Malmo in southern Sweden by the Öresund Bridge. Indre By, the city’s historic center, contains Frederiksstaden, an 18th-century rococo district, home to the royal family’s Amalienborg Palace. Nearby is Christiansborg Palace and the Renaissance-era Rosenborg Castle, surrounded by gardens and home to the crown jewels.

4. Admiral Hotel 4* – Gay Friendly Hotels Copenhagen
Our next recommendation for a gay friendly hotel Copenhagen is a 4* hotel, Admiral a waterfront hotel is next to Amalienborg Royal Palace and opposite Copenhagen Opera House.
The Admiral is a beautiful hotel located within walking distance (of a couple of miles if you enjoy walking as we do) of most of Copenhagen’s main attractions. It’s located just a couple blocks from Nyhavn on the water with a fabulous view of the opera house and Papiroen. Main shopping street, Stroget, is not so close to the hotel but is reachable with 15 mins walk.
The rooms are a little old so things are looking a little dated. The room are not sound proofed well and we constantly heard all sort of noises from the street, other room and pipes, so caution for a light sleeper. There is also no AC, but there was a fan in the closet that could be used for warmer nights
Breakfast offers a wide selection both hot and cold and is more than adequate and good choice of food, coffees, juices.
The bar has an outdoor patio that faces the harbor and is a great spot for a drink on a cool evening.
