New York celebrates Gay Pride Week for eight days from June 23-30, but a group of trendy Manhattan hotels is offering their hospitality all month long for both residents and out-of-towners coming in for the festivities.

The Triumph Hospitality Group is offering two-night packages for two at three of its hotels, with theater and dinner included. Each of the hotels has something different to offer, from location to amenities.

The Washington Jefferson Hotel, situated in Hell's Kitchen, puts guests close to Broadway and Off-Broadway.

Le Marquis New York is a new addition to the Murray Hill neighborhood, just a block away from Park Avenue South and its restaurant row.

Hotel Belleclaire on the Upper West Side is close to Central Park, and is perfect for a group of friends visiting together because of its spacious rooms.

Much of the Pride Week activity takes place in Greenwich Village, so each package brings guests right into the thick of things. Dinner at the Cuban restaurant Isla in the West Village is followed by an evening at the Actor's Playhouse watching the Off-Broadway production of “Naked Boys Singing,” featuring eight naked men singing and dancing to 16 original show tunes.

“Pride New York” packages at the Washington Jefferson Hotel and the Hotel Belleclaire cost $$475 for two nights, based on double occupancy. The officer is good from now through June 30.

Call 212-246-7550 for the Washington Jefferson Hotel and 212-362-7700 for the Hotel Belleclaire. Ask for the “Pride Package.”

The rate at the Le Marquis is $$560 between June 21 and July 7, and includes a complimentary breakfast. Call 212-889-6363 and mention code “NYCGP.”
