  4. Consider your location: Staying closer to major attractions or city centres may provide convenience, but it often comes with a higher price tag. For more budget-friendly options, you might consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, allowing you to balance cost with accessibility to the sites you wish to visit. You could also look into independent hotels located a bit further out, which are usually more likely to be affordable and can offer a more authentic experience.
