In addition, at busy times, properties can book out a long time in advance. In fact, often AirBnB works out more expensive than getting a reasonable hotel. There’s plenty of choice, but prices (and AirBnB’s fees) have definitely started to increase since we started to use the platform in 2012. So why would you want an alternative to AirBnB? Well, the thing is, AirBnB has become somewhat a victim of its own success. If you’re new to the world of peer to peer accommodation, take a look at Jess’s guide to using AirBnB, which will answer all your questions about both AirBnB, and the majority of other peer to peer accommodation sites like AirBnB. But that doesn’t mean we don’t also keep the various AirBnB alternatives in mind when travelling and booking accommodation, and in this post we’re going share our favourite alternatives with you. We’ve found it to be an excellent way to find accommodation all around the world in lodgings that range from quirky to palatial, from budget to princely. I’m not going to lie, we’ve used AirBnB a lot.
