LGBTQ+ Safety Notice — HIGH RISK

Same-sex activity is criminalised — discretion essential

Local law: Article 338 Penal Code — up to 3 years prison + fine.

Safety guidance for visitors →

Do not disclose your orientation to hotel staff, drivers, or guides.
Avoid public displays of affection of any kind.
Do not use LGBTQ+ dating apps — police entrapment via apps is documented. If you must, install a VPN before arrival.
Avoid carrying LGBTQ+ identifiers (flags, books, screenshots) in luggage.
Phone searches at airports can include checks for LGBTQ+ content — delete sensitive chats/photos before crossing borders.
If travelling with a same-sex partner, present yourselves as "friends" or "colleagues"; book separate hotel rooms for safety.
Use Signal or Wire for sensitive messaging — not WhatsApp.
Keep emergency cash (USD/EUR) and two separate payment cards.
Stay at international-chain hotels (Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt) — they rarely interrogate guest arrangements.
Register with your embassy on arrival — consular help may be limited.
Share a daily check-in with someone trusted abroad.

Top-notch hotel! The staff is professional, welcoming, and always available to advise and help. Located in the golf course area, near the Martyrs' Monument. The room was clean and comfortable. It had a TV, a small refrigerator, a bottle of water (daily), air conditioning, and, most importantly, a view of the Bay of Algiers 🤩 The breakfast offered a variety of sweet and savory options, and you can also have lunch or dinner at the hotel restaurant, which has a rooftop terrace. Excellent value for money; I highly recommend this hotel!
