Cheap Hotels Australia

Below are my tips for finding cheap hotels Australia.

There are heaps of ideas here to try and find the best prices. Sadly Australia isn't cheap when it comes to hotels but knowing where to look is half the battle. You'll also see some good alternatives to hotels on this page too if you are on a tight budget.

I have also included my accommodation recommendations on each of my destination pages under the title of "Where to stay". This is where I personally recommend hotels and other options. So you'll find some of these on this page and then on my individual destination pages. Check out the following pages and choose your destination for more information but I recommend reading this page in its entirety before you do.

Another alternative is to join a hotel scheme. You pay an upfront fee but then get significant discounts on those hotels and in house dining. This is a good one as it has a range of good hotels including Holiday in Crowne Plaza - all in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. Check out www.priorityprivilege.com.

CAMPING

Cheap hotels Australia can soon add up. The cheapest way to get around Australia is camping.

Australia really caters well for the camper with hundreds of national parks and camping grounds available. There is something in nearly every town or city. In peak season you will need to book in advance.

Best places are within the National Parks themselves or try the Big 4 camp grounds as they have a large selection right across the country.

For a full list of my recommendations go to Camping Australia.

MOTELS

Personally, I am not a camper. I worry too much about the insects and spiders!

Motels are an alternative to cheap hotels Austalia and are generally dotted on major highways across Australia. They are pretty much like what you see in the US.

These are good if you are only planning on a one night stop over as they are very basic, sometimes still living in the 1970's with interesting wallpaper and decor! The usual price is about £100.

CABINS

The locals swear by these as they really are cheap and value for money. The decor is also much better than your average motel.

Camping and Caravan sites generally have cabins available for about $150 for 2 bedrooms. This will be big enough for a family of 4. The "Big 4" campsites are a good place to look as well as Holiday Haven Tourist Parks along the East coast.

A couple of really good ones include:-

For a full list of my camping/cabins suggestions go to Camping Australia or how about a spot of luxury camping - check out my Glamping page.

Self Catering Accommodation, Australia

The cities tend to have serviced apartments and these can also be found on www.hotelscombined.com the same way to find cheap hotels Australia I would strongly recommend www.Stayz.com.au as they have a really wide choice of holiday homes, cottages and houses throughout the country.
