4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Graz

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Graz is between January and March, when hotel prices may drop significantly. For those keen to explore the city’s rich history and culture, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. During this time, visitors can discover key landmarks, including impressive monuments and museums, as well as enjoy the local art scene and charming dining options. Graz offers great value for money for travellers looking to immerse themselves in its historical and cultural attractions.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Graz, visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted accommodation rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, helping you to secure great rates. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're well-equipped to make an informed choice. You'll be notified if prices drop or rooms become available, enhancing your chance of securing a fantastic last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates may help you save on your stay in a hotel in Graz. For those seeking unique accommodations, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and potentially better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price appears to be on the higher side, we’ll suggest alternative dates that may offer more affordable options, increasing your chances of securing a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre generally tend to be pricier, but thanks to Graz's superb public transport connections, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel located further afield that remains well-linked. For those keen to explore alternative, less congested neighbourhoods or even the lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
