About motorbikefriendly.com

A directory of places that get it — secure parking, gear drying, hosts who don't blink at muddy boots.

What this is

A free directory of biker-friendly hotels, guesthouses, and B&Bs across Europe. Every listing has been picked because it offers things that actually matter on a bike — somewhere safe to park overnight, somewhere to dry gear, and a host who treats riders as guests rather than as a hassle. Booking happens through Booking.com so you keep your usual loyalty status, payment options, and cancellation policy.

How we curate

Here's what curation actually means in practice:

  • We start from established biker-accommodation sources — directories that hotel owners pay or apply to join, where the bar to be listed is some form of biker-aware welcome.
  • We filter for biker-relevant amenities flagged by those source directories: secure parking (lockup garage or floodlit forecourt), gear drying or boot room, somewhere to wash bikes, route information from the host, and proximity to a riding region people actually go to.
  • Properties without enough biker-relevant amenities don't make the cut. We'd rather have 300 places that are genuinely worth the diversion than 3,000 listings that are just "hotels that allow bikes."
  • Owners can submit their own place via /submit. Submissions are reviewed before they go live.

How it's funded

Affiliate setup is in progress. Once approved, bookings made through links on this site will earn the directory a small commission, at no extra cost to you. That commission is what keeps the directory free and ad-free. Full breakdown on /affiliate-disclosure.
