Finding the right accommodation at the lowest price for your European trip may require a bit of legwork.

My first port of call is the HotelsCombined price comparison site, which searches more through more than 30 popular travel sites such as Expedia, lastminute, Travelocity and ebookerrs to find the lowest prices. You can search for accommodation by star ratings, location, guest reviews, price bands etc.

 HotelsCombined have verified guest reviews (guests have actually stayed at the accommodation).. They also also offer a best price guarantee.
