Simple ideas are the best !

Cheap, lowbrow humor.

Guest's picture

So stupid and offensive.

well it isn't the smartest, but it does have a stupid-funny kick. after all, you don't trade in your sense of humor when you double your wardrobe. i assume they're shooting for clientele who are living VERY out loud, and placing this in all gay media. it seems like a limited way to position a hotel, but maybe they want to be the 'let your hair down' hotel.

Seems more like the let your "pants" down hotel.

Apologies to all the people looking for a highbrow cultural experience while advertising Europe's most exciting gay hotel.

It isn't stunningly brilliant, but even not being in the target audience it elicited a wry smile and chuckle from me. Guess I'm just lowbrow.

- The only thing more rare than a good ad is a good guest comment -

Ha, I saw this picture online. You guys definitely found a worthy client/logo to slap on it.

Actually, I just went back and looked at the picture. It was for this hotel all along. My bad.

Brainless and stereotypical.

Souds like you're a first-timer. It's okay. We ALWAYS knew you were a little....well, you know... ;P

Funny ad. And I don't feel offended at all. I just like it. Clever.

Guest's picture

mmmm

gay=ass

i am tired of this!!!

Guest's picture

I actually know the place, and this ad doesnt even come close to describing it. It's actually a pretty cool and unique place, and this just makes it look like little more than a bathhouse. Pathetic.

NatalieM's picture 1615 pencils

Pretty funny.

teenie's picture 1910 pencils

Oh pfft... that's funny. Silly, dirty funny. I don't find it offensive either. Who'd want to see a safe, politically correct, legal-department-approved ad when they could get a good laugh out of this?

If you know the place, the vibe and the ethos, it's perfect.

why does gay automatically mean promiscuouslu sex related.

I take the people here who like it aren't gay. If you are and still like it, stop crying
about stereotypical bigotry leveled at you.
