For those in search of distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and, at times, better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher end, we will suggest more affordable dates to help you find the best deal.
  4. Consider your location: Staying nearer to key attractions or city centres may provide convenience, but it often comes with a higher price tag. For more affordable options, consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between cost and accessibility to the places you intend to visit. You might also look into independent hotels situated further out, which are usually more likely to be affordable while offering a more authentic experience.
