Why the Bollywood weekend?

Lords Founder, Brian Gorman, says, "South Asians in the LGBT community have incredibly unique stories and experiences. At Lords, we want to celebrate them and their culture in a welcoming and inclusive environment - and throw a great party while we're at it!"

For a sub-culture newly finding its voice, Mumbai to Miami is the first destination gathering for Queer South Asians looking to network within their own community on a social level.

Mumbai to Miami organizing partner Rohan Sheth, sees Mumbai to Miami as an opportunity for gay South Asians from around the globe to meet in a safe, informal setting: "This is the first time Queer South Asians have the opportunity to meet offline in a social, slightly debaucherous, atmosphere. But while we will party hard, we're also creating opportunities to network, share experiences and connect."

Appropriately oriented and situated in the heart of South Beach on Collins Avenue, Lords South Beach is the first gay hotel brand to open in the US and the vanguard for the modern gay boutique hotel. Sexy, chic, affordable, and fun, it has raised the bar for what the discerning gay traveler can expect from a hotel.

With 54 rooms, three plunge pools and a variety of exciting hotel venues, including the Cha Cha Rooster Restaurant and Bar, as well as choice guest amenities like a Out-N-About, a digital concierge app in partnership with Out Magazine and the Lords Social Network, Lords South Beach has revolutionized the concept of hospitality.

Community is also important to Lords; the Rooms That Matter initiative includes five designated rooms for which 10% of room sale proceeds are donated to charities that provide support for those in the LGBT community.

The hotel provides a liberal, proud, playful experience and a sense of community for guests who want to mix and mingle. Lords South Beach is conveniently located in a gay-friendly location at the center of the South Beach's best restaurants, clubs, bars, shopping and beaches, including Miami's famed gay beach at 12th Street just steps away.

In May 2012, Lords South Beach was named as part of the Travel + Leisure 2012 "It List" - a collection of the 50 best new hotels in the world, as selected by T+L editors. This prestigious list honors the most inventive and inspiring new hotels - places that are transforming the travel landscape. Lords is the first LGBT hotel ever to be included in this list.
