Accommodation
Where to Stay
Choose accommodation by neighborhood and itinerary, not just by the cheapest nightly rate.
Best approach:Stay close to the places you will actually visit, especially in cities where parking or commuting can erase a lower room rate.
City stays
Prioritize walkability and public-transport access. A central hotel can save both time and transport costs.
Road trips
Choose hotels with practical parking and easy access to the next day’s route instead of repeatedly crossing downtown traffic.
National parks
Compare in-park lodging with gateway towns and consider how early you need to start each day.
