Hotel Avani Maseru

Avani Maseru is a hotel on Orpen Road in Maseru, Lesotho's capital. It belongs to Avani, a brand of the Thailand-based Minor Hotels group, and it's a mainstream property listed as gay-friendly. It's one of the few hotels in the city run to international chain standards. According to the listing it has a pool, a gym, a restaurant, a bar and conference rooms, which makes it popular with NGO and government visitors. Reviews average 4.0 from about 400 guests. Lesotho decriminalised sex between men in 2012, but public attitudes remain conservative and there's no gay scene. Keep a low profile in public, though couples report no trouble at the hotel.
