Tenerife is the largest of the Canary Islands – just pipping Fuerteventura to the post – and is firmly established as a magnet for tourists, especially the Brits. Most travellers gravitate to the south, with a favourite being Playa de las Américas, the top draw for night owls and home to some mammoth resorts. But the northern part of the island has gained steam as an alternative destination with more rustic offerings. A concerted government effort to maintain high tourism standards has resulted in an array of hotel offerings running the gamut, from the party hearty to the placid. Whether you’re looking for family-friendly, grown-up luxury or an all-inclusive resort, here are our picks of the best hotels in Tenerife.  🏝️ Where to stay in Tenerife🗻 The best things to do in Tenerife🌅 The best Canary Islands to visit How we curate our hotel lists Our team of writers and travel experts review hotels all over the world – new openings, old classics and everything in between – to bring you fresh, honest recommendations, all year round.

Whether it’s from a glamourous balcony of a penthouse or the open windows of a one-bed flat, some of the best moments in Paris are lived from peering out of a high-story home with the wind in your hair and city below you. In comes the perfect Airbnb, and that looks different for everyone. Do you want a glam outdoor set-up to soak up the city of lights, champagne in hand? Or a cosy space with French windows that overlook cafes and make comforting, pitter patter sounds when it rains? Maybe you want an entire garden that makes you forget you’re in one of the most metropolitan cities in the world? Whatever view you’re looking for in Paris, there’s an Airbnb that has it – and it’s often much cheaper and more authentic than the typical hotel.

If you can’t find a reason to fall in love with Dublin, you’re not looking hard enough. I’ve lived here for the guts of a decade, and am still discovering great little neighbourhoods, walks and pubs every other week. And that’s not including the new additions that are springing up constantly, from natural wine bars to open mic nights.  But one of the best parts of Dublin is how easily explorable it is – it’s compact, walkable and a cinch to navigate, but its quirky districts (many of which are known as villages) are all wrapped around the city centre, meaning you can get a local vibe without schlepping out to the suburbs. Stay somewhere like Stoneybatter if you appreciate a solid local pub, or the Liberties if you want the best of the city’s food scene at your fingertips.  Updated November 2025: we've added two new properties to keep things fresh, including a swish architect's studio in a peaceful garden and another gorgeous townhouse in Ranelagh.

Amsterdam means something different to everyone. Some fall in love with its storybook canals, famed museums, and centuries of history, while others come for its coffeeshops and legendary nightlife, seeking thrills of a different kind. Whatever draws you in, one thing’s certain: every neighborhood has its own charm, with leafy parks, chic boutiques and world-class restaurants never more than a short stroll or bike ride away. The city is brimming with unforgettable Airbnbs, from canal-side apartments with tall windows and creaky floors to quirky lofts in converted warehouses and cosy studios tucked down cobbled lanes. We’ve rounded up the best options you won’t want to miss.

If you’re hunting for the best bang for your buck, hotels often edge out Airbnbs in Amsterdam especially for solo travellers or short stays. On average, a one‑bedroom Airbnb can cost around €200 a night, and a standard hotel room is about the same – though you can find some budget hotels costing between €150-200. That said, rentals still have their many draws. Travelling with friends or family? A spacious apartment with a kitchen can work out cheaper per person and it gives you a glimpse of real Amsterdam life. 🆕 Updated October 2025: We’ve added new properties to keep things fresh, including a garden oasis and a huge flat in one of Amsterdam's oldest neighbourhoods.  This guide was written by Derek Robertson, a writer based in Amsterdam. At Time Out, all of our travel guides are written by local writers who know their cities inside out.

Munich has far more going for it than its famous beer festival. The city I’ve called home for almost a decade is also a top destination for art, museums, urban parks and fantastic regional food. Without a doubt, my favourite thing to do here is head to the river with its buzzing banks, roomy bike lanes and secluded stony beaches a little further out of town.  What’s the best neighbourhood in Munich? When it comes to neighbourhoods, the Glockenbach district is where I spend most time, thanks to its vibrant mix of cafes, bars, restaurants and independent shops. However, I also love the Schlachthofviertel with its more alternative vibe and venues such as the Münchner Volkstheater, or Maxvorstadt with its diverse collection of museums and relaxed student hangs. If you’re after an affordable or more spacious place to stay while you’re here, Airbnb has options a-plenty.

One of the many significant changes to happen in Budapest over the decades I've lived here has been the rise of Airbnb accommodation. For the perfect city break that delivers on food, culture and nightlife, you can easily find affordable lodgings a short walk or tram hop away. And that includes its famed ruin bars and magnificent bath spas, too! What is the best area to stay in Budapest? For partying, book a place in the Jewish Quarter (District VII, so addresses with postcodes starting with 107) and you're a stagger away from your last port of call – and close to options for breakfast. You're also near the Time Out Market Budapest, which holds true for the funky Palace Quarter in District VIII, postcode 108x. The most central location is District V, with a 105x postcode, while leafier Buda (Districts I, II and XII) offers a quieter stay. Airbnb has locations across the city. So whatever you’re looking for, experience the best of Buda (and Pest) with one of these apartments.

Picturesque old town? Check. Parks with sweeping views? Check. Cute coffee shops and the best beer in the world? Check. History at every corner? Check. Prague is one of the greatest cities to visit and to live in. I would know – I called the Czech capital home for over two years, where I discovered many of its hidden corners, top-notch neighbourhoods and city secrets. What is the best area to stay in Prague? If it’s your first time in the city, look into the Prague 1 district, which includes popular areas like the Old Town, New Town, and Malá Strana. Do make sure to check if your accommodation is located on a quiet street, though, as the main squares can get noisy here. You can also consider Vinohrady, Letná, Žižkov, and Karlín for a more local experience. Prague has excellent public transport, so as long as you’re near a metro or a tram, nowhere will be too far in any of these neighbourhoods. For context, I used to live in Letná and was able to go to the Old Town in about fifteen minutes by tram.  📍 Discover our ultimate guide to hotels in Prague Who makes the cut?   While we might not stay in and review every Airbnb featured, our writers have based our list on expert knowledge of the destination covered, editorial reviews, user reviews, amenities and in-depth research to find you the best stays.
