\’BARGAIN\’ DESTINATIONS IDEAL FOR FALL TRAVEL
Fall has arrived and for those with travel on their mind, the experts at Hotels.com have used their newest Hotel Price Index (HPI) to handpick a list of interesting destinations with the highest average nightly rate decreases — 12% to 32% — allowing travellers to get the most value out of their travel budget.
“Choosing a destination solely based on the lowest price isn’t always the best route to take as you may not have the experience you were looking for,” says Taylor Cole of Hotels.com. “With the HPI, travellers can locate cities with significant rate decreases, meaning they might not be the cheapest, but are a lot more affordable than before which gives you more value for your travel dollars.”
