It’s Easier Than Ever To Book an Affordable Last-Minute Getaway With Hotels.com

There’s a saying that goes something like this: travel is the only thing you can buy that will make you richer. I’m not a financial expert, but I strongly believe that to be the case. Traveling — whether it’s backpacking through Europe or relaxing on a sandy beach somewhere — leaves you with a better understanding of the world, while also fostering a sense of gratitude for what you have.

While traveling certainly does leave you richer, it still doesn’t hurt to find a good deal when planning your trip. That’s exactly where Hotels.com comes in. The online booking platform wants you to find your perfect somewhere and to make things a little easier on the wallet, they’re currently offering up to 35% off top hotels. It’s also worth noting that One Key travel rewards members will earn up to 6% in OneKeyCash for every dollar spent and can snag an additional 10% off with member prices.

We’re huge advocates for travel — so we wanted to sweeten the deal one step further! When you book your upcoming travel on Hotels.com, you’ll earn an additional 3% cash back for purchases sitewide with RetailMeNot.

If you’re ready to book your perfect summer getaway, we’ve got you covered. We’ve rounded up some of the best destinations for a late summer trip, as well as hotels that offer an ideal convergence of comfort, location and a budget-friendly price point. Bon voyage!

6 Summer Getaway Spots You Can Book With Hotels.com

The Lucerne Hotel in Manhattan

Embarking on a trip to New York City is always a good idea. It’s a domestic destination, sure, but the abundance of things to see and do is enough to make you feel like you’re on an adventure somewhere exotic. We recommend staying somewhere central if it’s your first time in the city and the Lucerne Hotel is a great option. The Upper West Side hotel is located just off Central Park and offers excellent prices on its well-appointed rooms which will make your trip to New York a lot more manageable in terms of budget.

Le Nouvel Hotel in Montreal

Ah, Montreal in the summertime. The Canadian city gets some seriously rough winter months and truly comes alive in the warm weather. If you’re hoping to indulge in festival season or to explore the award-winning restaurants and bars that dot the city, you’ll want to consider staying in the Ville-Marie area. Le Nouvel Hotel is within walking distance of pretty much all the major attractions and well-connected to the metro system as well should you want to venture further.

INNSiDE by Melia Barcelona Apolo in Barcelona

Barcelona in the summertime just can’t be beat. It’s an intoxicating swirl of rich architecture and art, decadent tapas, late nights and lazy days on the beach. The INNSiDE by Melia Barcelona Apolo is going to be an excellent spot to drop your bags (and perhaps grab a cocktail before hitting the town — the property has two great on-site restaurants!). The 4-star hotel is well-loved by guests and offers great prices, even during the busy peak season.

Peaks Hotel & Suites in Banff

Banff is one of those destinations that is just otherworldly levels of stunning year-round. The natural splendor is great for snow sports enthusiasts come winter — but we happen to love visiting the turquoise blue waters in the late summer and early fall as well. The Peaks Hotel & Suites is just around the corner from the famous Bow Falls and offers a cozy modern cottage aesthetic that only adds to the overwhelmingly picturesque feeling of being among the Rockies.

Libertel Montmartre Opéra in Paris

The Summer Olympics are upon us — and while it would be pretty darn cool to experience the sporting event in Paris, we’re partial to, well, waiting for the buzz to die down a bit and visiting the City of Lights at the end of the summer or beginning of fall. The Libertel Montmartre Opéra is in the undeniably cool Montmartre area and offers all the creature comforts you’d need for a few days of exploring while still remaining relatively budget-friendly for such a major tourist city.

Omni Los Angeles Hotel at California Plaza in Los Angeles

If you’re anything like us, you’re gearing up to chase summer for as long as possible. That’s why a late summer or early autumn trip to Los Angeles might very well be in order. Southern California is blessed with really good weather most days and Los Angeles will allow you to soak up the sand and sun while also indulging in great restaurants, shopping, and pop culture. The Omni Los Angeles Hotel at California Plaza is safe and well-rated but won’t run up your travel tab the way some of the more traditionally luxurious hotels in the city would.
