Best Vegan Hotels in Europe

best vegan hotels in europe

Vegan hotels in Europe have moved well past the novelty stage. A decade ago, a vegan traveler booking a European getaway had two real options: a self-catered apartment, or a hotel breakfast buffet reduced to dry toast and a fruit bowl. Now there are dozens of fully vegan properties spread from the Scottish Highlands to the Greek islands, and the newest one, Wales' first 100% vegan hotel, hasn't even opened yet.

This guide covers the best vegan hotels in Europe by country and by travel style, what "100% vegan hotel" actually means versus "vegan-friendly," what you'll pay depending on where you go, and the sustainability credentials worth knowing about before you book.

What "100% Vegan Hotel" Actually Means

Not every hotel with a good vegan breakfast is a vegan hotel. There's a real difference, and it's worth understanding before you start filtering your search.

A 100% vegan hotel removes animal products from the whole operation, not just the menu. The toiletries, bedding, cleaning products, and often the building materials are free of animal-derived ingredients too. Beck Hall in Yorkshire is a good example of what this looks like in practice: since December 1, 2023, every meal served on-site has been fully plant-based, and that extends to the toiletries, bedding, and cleaning products throughout the property too.

A vegan-friendly hotel, by contrast, offers a strong vegan menu but may still serve meat, dairy, or eggs elsewhere on the property, or use non-vegan products in housekeeping. A lot of popular "vegan-friendly" resorts fall into this category: great food, but not a fully vegan operation. Neither option is wrong. It depends on how strict you want your stay to be.

One thing worth flagging before you go further: vegan hotel lists go stale fast, because these are mostly small, independently owned properties, and small businesses change hands. Saorsa 1875, long billed as "the UK's first vegan hotel," closed in October 2025 after seven years and was sold to new owners who are bringing meat back onto the menu. It still turns up on a handful of older roundups, which is a genuinely odd thing to stumble on if you book a trip around it. Every hotel below has been checked against current listings, reviews, and official sites as of July 2026.

Newly Opened

Ffarm Hall, Wales — opened May 2026

Wales is getting its first-ever 100% vegan hotel. Ffarm Hall, in Betws-yn-Rhos near Abergele in North Wales, is the latest project from Louise and Andy Macbeth, the couple behind Beck Hall, England's first vegan hotel. The building itself dates back to the early 1700s. The published sample menu includes coronation tempeh boats and a chard, date, and almond pastille alongside more familiar comfort food: burgers, soups, dal, banana blossom and chips. As with Beck Hall, the plan is to carry the plant-based approach beyond the kitchen, into toiletries, bedding, and cleaning products across the whole property. Bookings are now open.

Ffarm Hall is effectively Beck Hall's sister property. Beck Hall itself, in Malham in the Yorkshire Dales, became England's first fully plant-based hotel back on December 1, 2023, and remains the benchmark the rest of this list gets measured against.

Best Vegan Hotels in Europe by Country

Italy

Italy has turned out to be one of the stronger vegan hotel destinations in Europe, with everything from lakeside boutique suites to working organic farms.

Il Mansio sits on the shore of Lake Garda in Rivoltella, a luxury boutique property (opened around 2022 in a converted former carpentry workshop) with an on-site spa (sauna, Turkish bath, hydromassage), beach access with loungers, and a restaurant running breakfast through dinner. Rooms run from around €275 a night.

Agrivilla I Pini, near San Gimignano in Tuscany, is an organic farmhouse renovated with clay, hemp, and rice husk insulation. Its 11 rooms sit above a permaculture garden that supplies the kitchen, and doubles start from roughly €390 including dinner. It's WiFi-free by design, built around the idea of slow living.

La Vimea, in the Val Venosta valley of South Tyrol, was Italy's first vegan hotel. Daily yoga, a natural bathing pond, organic wines. Half-board rooms run from around €165 per person.

Paradiso Pure.Living, in Kastelruth in the Dolomites, bills itself as the first vegan hotel in the Dolomites, with spa and yoga facilities and half-board rates from about €167 per person.

Greece

Koukoumi, on Mykonos, is the island's only 5-star vegan hotel. All 14 suites have private pools, and the on-site spa uses vegan, Greek-made products. The property holds Green Key environmental certification, and rooms start around £172 a night.

Goji Vegan Hotel and its sister property Açai Plant-Based Hotel, both in Rhodes, are run by the same family. Goji became the island's first vegan hotel when the family converted their existing property in 2023; Açai opened shortly after, five minutes from the beach in Rhodes Town.

Ethos Vegan Suites, in Fira on Santorini, is a small five-room B&B with breakfast included, from around €170 per person. Nearby, MOD Santorini bills itself as the island's first vegan and sustainable hotel, with modern suites and sea views from the balcony.

United Kingdom

Beck Hall, in Malham, Yorkshire, has been England's first fully vegan hotel since December 2023 (see above), with 20 rooms from roughly £120 to £150 a night and a strong reputation for welcoming dogs.

Ffarm Hall, in North Wales, opens May 2026 as Wales' first fully vegan hotel (see above).

In Scotland, Greenstone Lodge in the Highlands and Stonewater House on the Isle of Arran are both smaller vegan B&Bs. Stonewater House overlooks Lamlash Pier and keeps a small library of vegan cookbooks and health guides for guests.

The Base Vegan Retreat, in Bristol, pairs a guesthouse with an animal sanctuary, so guests can spend time with rescued animals during their stay.

A note on Saorsa 1875: this Pitlochry property was widely cited as the UK's first vegan hotel, but it closed in October 2025 and has since been sold and rebranded, with meat back on the menu. It's been left off this list for that reason, not by oversight.

Spain

Villa Vegana, on Mallorca, was one of the first vegan hotels in Europe when it opened in 2013. The eight-room property sits on a large conservation-area plot with views of the Tramuntana Mountains, free-roaming animals, and a globally inspired vegan menu.

Casa Albets, in Lladurs, Catalonia, is under two hours from Barcelona and holds a Michelin Green Star for its seven-course tasting menu. Half-board rooms start around €281.

El Molino del Abuelo, near Montecorto in Málaga province, is a smaller family-run B&B built around organic agriculture and sustainable construction.

France

HOY, in the Pigalle district of Paris, pairs 21 rooms with a yoga studio and the plant-based restaurant Mesa, which is also open to non-guests. Rooms start from around £460.

Bluedothotel, near Magnac-Laval in the Limousin countryside, is run by the same owners who previously ran Vegotel in the Netherlands before relocating. It has a pool, e-bike rental, and a full vegan breakfast built into every stay.

Smaller options include Hôtel La Rubanerie, a former ribbon factory turned eco-living collective in the Bruche Valley near Alsace, and La Cour de Husson, a three-room B&B near Bordeaux. For something different, the seasonal Vegan Surf Camp on the southwest coast runs yoga-and-surfing retreats from May through September.

Belgium

Bruges has two options worth knowing about: Vegan B&B AM/PM, known for house-made waffles at breakfast, and Hotel Malleberg, a family-run B&B in the town center. Worth noting: Malleberg is stairs-only, no elevator.

Germany, Poland, and Switzerland

Germany has one of the deepest benches of vegan hotels in Europe. Hotel Nicolay 1881 on the Moselle River is a five-generation family-run property with rooms from €69. Libertine Lindenberg sits in Frankfurt's Alt-Sachsenhausen district. ahead burghotel is a castle stay inside a UNESCO biosphere reserve between Berlin and Hamburg.

In Poland, Plantonia Aparthotel in Kraków is the city's first vegan aparthotel, with a salt cave, yoga space, and an on-site vegan pantry and bakery.

In Switzerland, Garden Hotel Primavera sits directly on Lake Maggiore in Brissago, with daily vegan breakfasts and dinner service Wednesday through Saturday.

Vegan Hotels in Europe by Travel Style

For luxury, Koukoumi in Mykonos and Il Mansio on Lake Garda sit at the top of the market, both with private pools, full spa facilities, and fine-dining restaurants attached.

Adults-only and all-inclusive is thinner on the ground. A handful of Mediterranean properties, Mikasa in Ibiza among them, run as adults-only retreats with full-board options, but board arrangements shift seasonally, so it's worth checking directly with the hotel rather than trusting a listing site.

On a budget, El Molino del Abuelo in Málaga, Stonewater House on Arran, and Hotel Malleberg in Bruges all deliver a proper vegan stay without the boutique price tag.

And if a hotel room feels too static, the seasonal Vegan Surf Camp on France's southwest coast pairs surfing lessons with yoga and plant-based meals, May through September.

Cost Guide: What to Expect to Pay

Tier Nightly range Examples
Budget Under €100 Nicolay 1881 (from €69), El Molino del Abuelo, Hotel Malleberg
Mid-range €100 to €250 Beck Hall, Koukoumi, Villa Vegana, Casa Albets
Luxury €250+ Il Mansio, Agrivilla I Pini, HOY Paris

Prices move around by season, especially on the Greek islands and in Mallorca, so treat this as a starting point, not a quote.

Sustainability and Certifications to Look For

A handful of these properties go further than a plant-based kitchen. Koukoumi holds Green Key certification, an internationally recognized eco-label that assesses a property's environmental and community impact. Agrivilla I Pini was built with clay, hemp, and rice husk insulation and runs its own permaculture garden. Casa Albets holds a Michelin Green Star, awarded specifically for sustainable gastronomy. If sustainability matters to you as much as the food does, ask the hotel directly about its certifications before booking. These labels aren't standardized across the industry yet, so how rigorously they're verified varies from one to the next.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is breakfast included at vegan hotels in Europe?

Usually, yes. Most fully vegan hotels bundle a plant-based breakfast into the room rate, though some smaller B&Bs charge separately for dinner and extra meals. Inclusions vary by season and room type, so it's worth confirming with the specific property.

What's the difference between a vegan hotel and a vegan-friendly hotel?

A vegan hotel removes animal products from the entire operation: food, toiletries, bedding, and cleaning products. A vegan-friendly hotel offers a strong plant-based menu but may still serve or use animal products elsewhere on the property. Both can be great stays. It comes down to how strict you want to be.

Are there all-inclusive vegan resorts in Europe?

Full all-inclusive vegan resorts are still rare here compared with fully vegan boutique hotels and B&Bs. Some Mediterranean properties offer half-board or full-board vegan options seasonally, so confirm the meal plan directly rather than assuming standard all-inclusive terms apply.

Do vegan hotels allow pets and children?

It depends entirely on the property. Beck Hall in Yorkshire is known for welcoming dogs for free, while several boutique properties, Mikasa in Ibiza included, run adults-only. Check the specific pet and family policy before booking rather than guessing from the photos.

Is there a new vegan hotel opening in the UK in 2026?

How to Book a Vegan Hotel in Europe

  1. Confirm the vegan status directly. "Vegan hotel," "vegan-friendly," and "vegetarian with vegan options" all get used loosely across booking platforms. If a listing is ambiguous, check the hotel's own website or just ask them.
  2. Check for recent reviews. Small independent hotels change ownership, change concept, or close outright. Saorsa 1875 is the clearest recent example of why this matters. A quick scan of reviews from the last few months tells you whether the vegan offering is still current.
  3. Compare direct booking against OTAs. Several properties here, Il Mansio and Koukoumi among them, offer better rates or perks for booking direct rather than through a third-party site.
  4. Ask about board arrangements ahead of time, particularly for adults-only or all-inclusive-style stays. Terms shift seasonally and aren't always reflected accurately on aggregator sites.
