Official Guide to West Hollywood

LGBT

West Hollywood’s progressive spirit and vibrant urban setting continues to make it one of the world’s top gay vacation spots for gay & lesbian travelers. Lounge at a rooftop hotel pool, dine in one of our world class restaurants or indulge in a nearly endless variety of nightlife.

Only in West Hollywood can you discover and celebrate your individuality.

With more than one-third of the population identifying as LGBT, West Hollywood has long been a leader in protecting and advocating for equal rights for the LGBT community.

West Hollywood is at the center of gay California nightlife, luxurious spas and unparalleled shopping and dining. Located at the foot of the Hollywood Hills and at the center of all the best attractions in the greater L.A. region, West Hollywood (or “WeHo” as the locals call it) is at the leading edge of culture, entertainment and design. With trendsetting hotels, unique cultural attractions, and legendary nightlife, the 1.9-square mile enclave of WeHo invites you to be yourself in the city that prides itself on “living forward.”
