AIRBNB has released a ranking of the 25 cheapest European destinations, with Georgia, Serbia and Turkey rated as the most affordable countries by accommodation price per night.
The list, compiled by the homestay network, looked at the average cost-per-night within the last year in European cities with at least 200 units, with typical nightly prices in Tbilisi, Georgia a bargain at US$30, while rates in Belgrade, Serbia and Istanbul, Turkey billed just slightly higher, with both at US$33.
Poland in particular emerged as a great-value country to travel to, home to three of the cheapest cities in Europe -- with Warsaw, Krakow and Wroclaw all present in the top 25.
Thessaloníki in Greece, Sofia in Bulgaria and the Romanian hub of Bucharest came in at 3rd, each with a typical nightly price of US$34, with Saint Petersburg in Russia and Kiev, Ukraine (both US$35 per night on average) next, followed by Zagreb, Croatia and Warsaw in Poland, all priced at US$39 per night on average.
