Riyue Tan BLOG: European tours booking note

Cologne, a bed in a room, Shanghai

0. European settlements, the big easy

"Not out of the unknown road is difficult, not to know chaimi expensive in Europe.

"These days for the summer in preparation for the European free line to begin registration hostel, initiation of such exclamations. My last year in the United Kingdom travelled a great circle, born out of commodity prices, and marvel at the data, even when it comes to the European continent, particularly in Eastern Europe, costs about one-third to cheap out. Such as accommodation, it is said that in the United Kingdom 30 pounds of fees to the Western Europe is about 30 euros. Now I dare to say: this is absurd, but said the absurd. (Note: 1 pound today about 16 Yuan, 1 euro is approximately $ 11. ) And this is my go to preparing for Western European or Eastern European traveller's work.

Pudong Shanghai Puxi before said housing differences, saying that "better a Puxi a bed, a room.

"Apply this sentence Hunanese, today's the Sun Tan's BLOG on that said:" Cologne a bed in a room, Shanghai. ”

1. back up the blanket off the European

I am not advocating tours, tourist guide, companion, go your way, eat pungent sweat I carried alone; I also stands for "poor tour", has been the normal overhead traveling is spent outside, and go so far as possible the natural need Jay province.

Therefore, I dedicated to the "poor tour network" find hostel rather than a hotel. (Upper right, upper left: London hostel appearance)

"Hostel" instead of "hotel", an "s", both State and low vertical.

Youth hostels and backpackers hotel also this hostel series, similar conditions. Germany is for the latter two are launched, opened the first B & B.

The hostel is a family of poor backpacking tour to the world, each with one bed, 6 room, 8 room, or even 20 rooms; girls, boys, even mixed.

Only provides a public toilet and bathroom, and kitchen. (Right: Interior view of York Youth Hostel) most everything needs themselves, the hostel even cleaning. In addition to a bed, many hostels also supply a good breakfast, the so-called "B & B", especially youth hostel; also relies on off the cost of breakfast, such as the United Kingdom Edinburgh Youth Hostel.

The European land boundaries, this hostel is more a thumb, blanket, or billing themselves.

Oh, do you really want to pick up the blanket off Europe.

2. "eat" back one-third of the rebate

In short, this hostel is our side hostel standard.

Conditions down so the hostel, in my view, such as income, the price is definitely not cheap. Open the poor tour network cheap hostel page, fill in the dates, destination city and the like, all over the world hostel price list can be listed in ascending order. This date is worth add Europe tourism season is 7-8 months, so, this time heading Europe find the hostel is a tiger for leather, and more see the team come to is that if not booked beds, it is possible to roam the streets.

I booked the hotel experience was skipped each boarding houses on their own advocacy section, for example "lobby wireless Internet access," "car," "laundry room" and "no curfews," "bar/coffee bar," and the like, go straight to the topic — the number of price, cohabitation, geographical location far away from the city centre.

Also, I'm sorry, is including breakfast. In the United Kingdom, a meal of early about 5 pounds, 15 pounds of hostel has "eat" back to one-third of the rebate.

United Kingdom's hostel, previously already in my blog, do not repeat it here.

However, by this back to the booking, the original hope to continental Europe cheaper all gave up the idea. Western Europe, still big.

3. the Cologne a bed in a room, Shanghai

I set the first day and last day of the bed, in Germany's capital city Düsseldorf's Youth Hotel, on the second day of the famous Cathedral of Cologne's youth hostel.

The two room is 4 people € 24.3 broker beds, plus 1.5 element "prayed for the head charges", already 25.8 euros. Conversion into RMB is $ 283. The price, in Shanghai can provide for General Hotel in a standard room, in Zhejiang jiashan, five-star hotel is set within a group buy mupirocin ointment Pavilion on a set of standard room!

This really is the "Cologne a bed in a room, Shanghai.

”

While I'm in Shanghai in the same series of youth hostel, Shanghai's a hostel bed just 50 Yuan.

As far as I know, there are 35 and 40 Yuan price. Watch live, in the foreigner poke at a leisurely pace somewhat elastic, heart, however this price in Europe is a burger or a glass of beer prices! foreigners visiting, such as in gentleman's country.

This back to the reservation process, the most expensive is the Germany of Heidelberg and Amsterdam, 25 euro, 12 boys dormitory; Florence, Venice should be more expensive, because there is no breakfast.

Hungary in Budapest and Prague, the Czech Republic is also the countries of Eastern Europe, there is no "cheap" said consumption.

In Florence he let me to "7 euros" double bed single use toilet, immediately click on the registration successfully obtained after arrival, each other instantly, to a letter, "" Miss 70 euros.

Who said that he himself is wrong, but I've been detained to transfer fee of EUR 0.7! management Italy can infer.

Really cheap is Heidelberg, Baden-Baden, camping is located, not far from the city, the fee of about 4-5 euro, tents, plank, blanket supply, but have additional money.

Such supply of water and toilets in the camp, at how, also have to wait for my own experience.

4. I live in Berlin wall

Cosmopolitan city accommodation down but not expensive, the Youth Hostel in London last year has been informed.

This should be the center of the "whirlpool" the most calm, is a cosmopolitan city competition badly. This round to go to France to Paris, I booked $ 20.5 backpackers hotel.

The most surprising is the first in Germany, near Dublin, Brandenburg, Berlin wall edges, actually let me set the 7.77 euros a bed, boys 5 room.

Plus a handling fee of € 2 genius 17。 Not to be lp travel guide "Germany", on "whether you're seeking, borrow, or steal," or to stay a few nights at the Circus Hostel because expensive Ah, 30 euros a night, it is not willing, can only give up.

Out of the hotel is not far away is the famous attractions — once the Berlin wall "Charlie checkpoints", Germany during the cold war is in between the two Berlin through the gate.

A wall dividing the number of rolled over, living history events to a boundary is a real eye-opener!
