refuse to be responsible for you staying up all night worrying about where you'll rest your head-that furrowed brow can be really aging! There are a number of TAG-approved hotels in Cleveland, which means they're not just LGBT-friendly, but officially LGBT-friendly, including the Renaissance, Hyatt Regency at the Arcade, InterContinental and both Marriotts (downtown and the airport location). Plus, there are plenty of other accommodations where LGBT folks have made their base for events such as CLAW, Pride and the Cleveland International Film Festival: the Wyndham in Playhouse Square and Ritz-Carlton, to name a couple.

Two bed and breakfasts in the heart of Ohio City put you steps from gorging yourself on fine dining or a legendary bar crawl of Cleveland's best craft brewers. The Stone Gables (stonegables.com), a restored 1883 house, has bedrooms filled with antiques and artwork. And down the street is the J. Palen House (jpalenhouse.com) a 19th-century Victoria home done up with contemporary and traditional furnishings. Both boast about their multicourse gourmet breakfasts and spa baths and are within a short walk of the West Side Market and fantastic restaurants.

Nearby is The Cleveland Hostel (theclevelandhostel.com), offering private and shared rooms at incredible rates. And

if you'd rather stay amid the cultural icons of University Circle, you'll no doubt love Glidden House (gliddenhouse.com), a 1910 mansion converted into a luxury boutique hotel.
