Booking Directly: Booking directly with a hotel can make it easier to make changes to your reservation, but surprisingly, it can also be more expensive to book directly than, say, with, Booking.com
Explore unique options. Don't limit yourself to hotels.
Airbnb can offer beautiful homes with better value for money, especially for larger families needing more space than a standard hotel room provides. Also, look for amenities such as a kitchen and laundry. Be sure to read reviews and ask questions before booking.
Home-swapping can provide cost savings and unique experiences, allowing you to stay in child-friendly houses filled with toys and meet locals.
Hostels aren't just for backpackers and can be a great money-saving option, especially for larger families.
Read Reviews: Check multiple sites like Booking.com, Expedia, and TripAdvisor, and filter for family reviews. Look for comments about the location, room size, and dining experience.
Extra Considerations: Onsite restaurants can be very convenient. All-inclusive options mean that all of your meals are covered. Look for a hotel with a range of activities, like a pool, games room and kids’ club.
