What is Trades Hotel and Bar like?
Trades belongs to a classic seaside tradition: the sociable, men-only LGBTQ+ hotel. A run of linked townhouses on Lord Street holds around 60 rooms, and guests join as members for the duration of their stay. The bar is an easygoing place for men to chat and meet, and the property was refurbished in 2026. If you are hunting for a men only hotel in Blackpool with a bar on site, this is the one to look at first.
When should you go?
The bar is listed as open daily from 11am until 3am. Because it works as a residents' bar, check the membership and entry arrangements with the hotel before turning up on spec.
