A weekend on a small budget: 7 habits
1. Set yourself a total budget
Not just the price per night: add transport, meals, outings and the tourist tax. It's the total that counts.
2. Compare the final price
A low price can climb fast with the tourist tax and fees. Always look at the amount you'll actually pay, not the big number on display.
3. Play with the dates
Friday and Saturday nights often cost more than weeknights. Shifting by a day, or leaving on a Sunday, can bring the bill down.
4. Don't go too far
Less travel means fewer costs and more time there. An easy-to-reach city beats an expensive flight to a trendy destination.
5. Stay a little outside the centre
A well-connected neighbourhood is often cheaper than the very centre. Just check the travel time to the places you want to see.
6. Think about meals
An included breakfast can save you a big expense, but not always: compare with what you'd pay outside. And eat where the locals eat, it's tastier and cheaper.
7. Let us guide you
Tell Wéa what you feel like and when: he'll suggest destination ideas. To know what really fits your budget, you'll need our partners' offers, which are coming soon: Wéa never guesses a price.
Good to keep in mind
Prices change fast, and the exact price is confirmed with the partner before you book.
