Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights in the United States have evolved in recent decades. However, LGBT Americans may still face some legal and many social challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents, particularly in states with large conservative populations, such as in the Deep South; in rural areas; and in some Native American tribal nations.
U.S. federal law does not explicitly include protections against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. In June 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that sexual orientation and gender identity are included under “sex” as a prohibited ground of employment discrimination in the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Staff as always were professional, friendly, and gave us a great room. Hotel is centrally located to Boardwalk, several bars including Paradise, Tides, and WonderBar.
As we had heard of the Haus of Mimosa drag act, we were thrilled to learn they would be at the Asbury this weekend for drag brunch. The food was delicious (special props for the Monte Cristo French Toast), the mimosas were great and the entertainment was awesome. We had a great weekend and the Asbury Hotel and its wonderful staff made it all possible!

Great staff, impeccably decorated and furnished, friendly boutique feel, quiet area.
his hotel caters to the gay community – of the 8 groups we saw staying here, 6 were gay couples. This wasn’t obvious to us until we arrived, and we initially felt a little out of place with our 4 year old. But both staff and guests were great and made us feel welcome.
We had an awesome stay at this hotel with another couple. The staff is very friendly and check-in was easy. The common areas are very nice and the pool area cozy with a cool bar.
This place is pretty cute. The decor is fabulous. Ryan was very friendly and a jack of all trades. A wearer of all hats. He was on reception, the bartender, a server, what can’t this guy do? We had a very delicious dinner, accompanied by some good drinks.
The fish was cooked to perfection and was well-seasoned. My only negative is the insulation for soundproofing, it’s not great. I could hear the lobby phone ringing through the floor from my room on the second level. I could also hear all the housekeepers in the morning. The shower head was at a ridiculous height, intended for giants, which I am not. The vibe in this place is nice though. Check in early though as reception is not 24 hours.
The hotel has a cute cozy bar and lounge area with a fabulous restaurant. I hate to write a good review since for years The Tides was Asbury Park’s best kept secret. The pool is open during the summer and has a small bar as well.
The modern rooms are small but clean and well kept. You can easily walk to the boardwalk or take a cab to Cookman Avenue. If you eat at the restaurant be sure to try the short ribs or scallops which they are known for. The waiters are excellent especially Chris and Carl.
Hannah is the cutest bartender on the weekends and provides great service. I absolutely love this place and feel very comfortable there.
This hotel is charming, well managed and a delight to stay at. The bed was super comfy, the room was very clean and nicely decorated.
