4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Gaborone

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Gaborone is during August, November, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower.

This duration allows visitors to explore key landmarks, cultural attractions, and historical sites. Enjoy the vibrant atmosphere at local cafes, catch live music performances, visit churches and the cathedral, and indulge in shopping and entertainment options. With affordable accommodation and activities, Gaborone offers great value for money for travellers on a budget.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover cheap hotel deals in Gaborone, visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, helping you secure the best hotel deal. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you could find popular cheap hotels in Gaborone. With these features, you're more likely to catch any price drops or newly available rooms for your 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. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a hotel in Gaborone. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you make a booking through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.
