NEW YORK, March 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
As we near the end of winter hibernation, many of us are eager
to begin planning our vacations for the months ahead. The experts
at Booking.com, the global leader in connecting travelers with the
widest choice of incredible places to stay, have examined a wealth
of data to help travelers of all budgets find the best wallet
friendly destinations for the remainder of 2017.
The data was compiled by first looking at the average price per
night of 4-star accommodations in the most recommended U.S.
destinations.* Then, to determine which cities to recommend for
which month, Booking.com looked at the yearly overview of pricing
fluctuations to determine the best weeks to stay in the chosen
destinations.
