Accommodation
Although accommodation is one of the key costs to consider when planning your trip,
it needn't be a stumbling block to a budget-conscious tour of Europe. Indeed, even
in Europe's pricier destinations the hostel system means there is always an affordable
place to stay. If you're prepared to camp, you can get by on very little while staying
at some excellently equipped sites. Come summer, university accommodation can be a
cheap option in some countries.
The one rule of thumb is that in the most popular cities and resorts - Venice, Amsterdam,
Prague, Paris, Barcelona, the Algarve, and so on - things can get very busy during the peak
summer months. Be sure to book in advance regardless of your budget.
