Non-Stop Pride
We welcome our guests with open arms, no matter who you are. It takes more than a month to champion diversity, so we're sharing our message of Non-Stop love round the world and round the clock.
To celebrate our inclusive culture, we've launched Non-Stop Pride starting with first-hand experiences from our LGBTQ+ guests. Discover the highlights below for queer travel guides and exciting events across YOTEL. This is something to be proud of.
