Hotels up to 85% cheaper than Airbnbs for single travellers at holiday hotspots, Which? study reveals
Booking a solo holiday can be cheaper at a hotel rather than an Airbnb. This is supported by a study that looked at 13 UK holiday spots and 37 places from around the world. In various destinations, including Santorini, Amsterdam, and Hong Kong, the cost of rental listings on Airbnb was significantly higher than hotels.
In the UK's capital cities, hotels are generally more affordable than one-bedroom holiday rentals. This finding challenges the assumption that hotels are more expensive. In fact, many holidaymakers may be surprised to discover that hotels offer better value for money in terms of cost.
For larger groups needing more space and rooms, private rentals are still likely to be the more affordable option compared to hotels. This option provides better value for money. It is advisable for travelers to check rates across different platforms before making a decision.
