It’s inexpensive, and we found it to be a fantastic way to learn more about these sites and uncover hidden gems in the city.

Grand Place (Grote Markt): The crown jewel of Brussels, this UNESCO World Heritage site is surrounded by opulent guild halls and the majestic Town Hall. Any queer cafes and restaurants in Brussels?
If there’s one thing Seby and I take seriously (besides our cocktail game), it’s food.

And that staircase? It’s not just a staircase – it’s a catwalk of epic entrances. Here are some must-see spots that Seby and I adored. Gay hotels in Brussels
When it comes to finding gay-friendly hotels in Brussels, you’re spoilt for choice.
What are the best day trips to do from Brussels?
If you’re in Brussels and have a day to spare, do yourself a favor and visit Ghent and Bruges—two picture-perfect cities that feel like stepping into a fairy tale (but with better beer).
Ghent is a quirky mix of medieval charm and modern flair. Stammbar est un incontournable de la nuit, avec des soirées à thème et une ambiance plus adulte.

They offer plans for travelers, digital nomads and expats. The afterparties? Absolutely bonkers. Safety Wing makes it easy to purchase insuranceeven if you are already abroad.

Most health coverage in the U.S. or your home country, for example, does not cover you outside of the U.S. or your home country.

The majority of the gay bars can be found here or a short walk away.
We kicked off at Le Dolores, a cozy little gem that’s perfect for warming up with drinks and some good gossip. Cobblestone streets, chocolate shops on every corner, and canals so pretty they’ll make Venice jealous. Seby and I wandered along its dreamy canals, marveled at the stunning Gravensteen Castle, and devoured some of the best waffles of our lives.

Across the road is Stacion BXL, which quickly became one of our favorites for its fun, friendly vibe and a crowd that knows how to party.
Karaoke queens? Almost.
Other stellar #TravelProud hotels include Hotel Fleur de Ville, a boutique haven with elegant vibes and a location that’s dangerously close to all the good shopping (our wallets are still recovering).

Travel worry-free!

Don't skimp out on your travel insurance: make sure your trip is fun, frivolous, and free! Bring your A-game, because it’s a full-on spectacle with around 10,000 gays attending. Seby and I couldn't resist snapping a selfie with this iconic symbol of Brussels' irreverent spirit.

And the beds? As a result, Brussels Pride became only the second Pride in the world (after Amsterdam) to benefit from such institutional recognition.
Brussels Pride is a wild celebration of love, diversity, and glitter. We found it to be the ultimate comfort food, especially when paired with, you guessed it, more fries.

It has all our practical safety tips, first-hand advice, and travel stories from some of our favorite destinations. Because no one is better equipped to unlock the true spirit of a city than someone who actually lives and thrives there.
Staying with a gay host is like getting a VIP pass to the queer underground: they’ll know which bars are worth your euros, where to find the best post-club fries, and exactly what time to show up for drag bingo without looking like a total tourist.
There’s also something refreshingly personal about staying in a space where you can swap stories about disastrous dates and compare skincare routines over breakfast.
Plus, gay hosts have a knack for creating homes with immaculate vibes—think killer playlists, an encyclopaedic knowledge of pop culture, and just the right amount of sass to keep you on your toes.
It’s not just a place to crash—it’s an experience.

After a night of bar-hopping, Seby and I decided to dive into the city’s cruising scene (all in the name of research, of course).
Top of the list is Macho Sauna, conveniently located near Rue du Marché au Charbon. Seby and I scoped out the city’s top gay hairdressers to ensure your locks are as sharp as your comebacks.
First up, BXL Hair—the place to go when your hair needs a glow-up faster than you can say “bad root day.” Then there’s Eaucontreair, where the stylists are so talented you’ll want to invite them to brunch just to keep the magic going.
For those craving a chic, modern look, Vega is your go-to—it’s where sleek meets sassy, and the results scream, ‘I woke up like this’.
