It is estimated that there are 600 million vegetarians worldwide. This is a very conscious target group that very often changes its consumption habits based on its position regarding food. Meat, fish and their by-products are now being left out of menus in several hotels that are looking to attract vegetarians with their commercial offers.
The trend towards vegetarianism is on the up and up all over the world. This is something inescapable that we’re all seeing in both culinary offers and different accommodation options.
Whether it’s for cultural, health or ethical reasons, more and more people are now steering clear of meat, fish and poultry. And you may have noticed that vegetarians tend to travel a lot.
Nowadays, there are many hotels attracting vegetarians with their offering to become the first choice among this broad spectrum of customers. There are also websites like VeggieHotels offering purely vegetarian accommodation options in many cities across the world.
These are hotels of a very different nature in destinations and regions geared towards satisfying the vegetarian public. So, if you’re more tofu than sirloin steak, here are a few places you might want to check out.

Vegan and vegetarian movements are closely tied to the recent hipster phenomena. So, where else could we go but Italy?

Un paso más allá, puramente veganos
We now cross the pond to the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, where we find Casa Axis Mundi B&B set in a distinctly colonial environment with beautiful decor inspiring peace and tranquillity.
The couple running Casa Axis Mundi use their own homegrown fruit and veg along with other products sourced from local producers to create their dishes. This B&B is ideally located, close to the natural cenotes and the Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza, Ek Balam and Coba.

Is there possibly anything better for a vegetarian or vegan than being accommodated on a Provencal-style organic farm? This is exactly what Más la Jaina is offering in Bargemon, southeastern France, which has been rebuilt using recycled materials from old houses in the surrounding areas.
It serves well-balanced, fresh and healthy breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Bargemon, one of the most emblematic and representative villages in the region, is ideally located, both close to the Alps and the French Riviera.
