The Parliament House Resort

Sobre este lugar The Parliament House Resort

The Parliament House Resort is one of the most historically significant LGBTQ+ venues in the United States — a gay hotel and entertainment complex at 410 North Orange Blossom Trail that has been operating continuously since 1975, making it one of the longest-running gay resorts in the country. The Parliament House defies easy categorisation: it is simultaneously a motel (with individual room units arranged around a central pool), a nightclub complex (with multiple bars and performance spaces operating on the property), a gathering place for Orlando's gay community, and an institution of national cultural significance. The motel format — inherited from the building's original construction — gives Parliament House a distinctive character unlike that of any conventional gay hotel: the pool is the social centre of the property, rooms open directly onto walkways and the pool area, and the informality and openness of the layout encourages the kind of social interaction that more conventional hotel formats inhibit. The entertainment complex includes multiple bars, dance floors, and performance spaces that host drag shows, themed nights, and live events throughout the week. Parliament House has been a safe space, a community hub, and a place of genuine joy for 50 years of Orlando's LGBTQ+ history. For visitors who want to stay somewhere that is not merely gay-friendly but gay in its DNA, Parliament House is the Orlando answer.
