Venice on a budget

There�s no two ways about it � Europe can be expensive for tourists and particularly so for those on a budget. But there are tips that will help save money whilst not impinging on your enjoyment at all. But first, see Cheaprooms.com for quality hotels in the best locations of Venice, Italy. There are excellent hotels in Venice and many have packages that represent outstanding value for money. Venice is a very compact, very romantic city, full of gorgeous piazzas and splendid monuments, churches and museums and you are but a walk away from most scenic sites in almost every hotel on our site. There are good deals on Cheap Rooms and the city is small enough that your location doesn't matter all that much. Our first tip is more what to avoid than anything else. And top of that list is St Mark�s Square, or Piazza San Marco in local lingo. Sure, you need to come here and lap up a few of the people-watching pleasures, but don�t linger in the cafes or restaurants. They are designed to whip money out of your wallet in every way they can. For example, many bars will charge extra to sit outside. Enjoy the square, then head for the surrounding side streets for a bite to eat and a beer. Sight-seeing in Venice isn�t just about experiencing a striped t-shirted gondola ride. Venice is a city designed to be explored on foot too! Get yourself a good map and don�t worry when you get hopelessly lost � there�s always a way back. Buy a water bus pass at the ticket office and use the local services, especially Vaporetto 1 along the Grand Canal. Do this at night and you�ll experience the full majesty of a Venetian gondola ride without the expense. The main museums and galleries can be expensive and they are worth doing for the magnificent artwork inside. But explore the local churches too. They are generally free to enter and many have gorgeous early Italian artwork inside.
Summer in San Antonio

Go the Alamo, and walk that Riverwalk - but that's not all there is to beautiful San Antonio. There's a raft of outdoor things to do when the weather shines in this Texas town, and we've listed a few right here. Find Cheaprooms.com accommodation in San Antonio and enjoy everything outdoorsy about this great little town. San Antonio is a great place to bring the family - so much history and so scenically delightful. Check out the good deals on Cheap Rooms and look for packages that also include breakfast - this will save you a lot of money. While you enjoy the Alamo, don't stop there. Visit Market Square and then enjoy lunch at Mi Tierra. From there jump on a double-decker bus or the Alamo trolley and take all the pictures you want. You can even rent a segway. What's the most beautiful building in San Antonio? Well, according to the National Geographic, it's the Spanish Governor's Palace. It's certainly impressive and for just $5 you can tour the residence and office of the Captain of the Presidio. Pay particular attention to the ornate carvings on the wooden doors which tell the history of Spanish America. The downtown Hemisfair Park Plaza hosts countless festivals and the annual New Year's Eve blast in San Antonio, but it's also home to wonderful landscaping and cool-looking waterfalls, scattered historical buildings, a great park for the kids and the Tower of the Americas (with its views of the city).
Atlanta for couples

We all need a little romance in our lives... a little break from the routine every so often and a trip to somewhere more exotic than home! How about Atlanta? Fast developing a reputation as a cool couples town, here are some ideas for a cosy weekend in Georgia's best. Go to Cheaprooms.com and find an excellent value Atlanta hotel room and enjoy some downtime from the routines of life! Try for a spot around the downtown area if possible - because this will place you central to all the sights you want to see. Find cheap accommodation in Atlanta now and spend your money on your vacation not your accommodation. The Little Five Points neighborhood is a great start to a big night out if that's your heart's desire. It's Atlanta's answer to Haight-Ashbury and brings a little bohemian vibe to the going out experience. The restaurants here are great and you can find a club for a little live music entertainment after dinner without trying hard. Spend the next day wandering the streets of Little Five Points and soak up the atmosphere. There are a couple of special indie bookstores - Charis Books and More and A Cappella Books and two great record stores, Criminal Records and Wax n Facts. Grab a coffee from one of the independent stores and decide on which new restaurant you'll try later that night. On Sunday, before you head home, check out the best representation of Atlanta's arts scene in the form of the Woodruff Arts Center. Here's where you'll find the High Museum of Art, Atlanta Symphony and Alliance Theater. It offers world class art as well as a delightful area to base yourself for the day.
Morning, noon and night in San Francisco

So you're in San Francisco for an extended break... most guides cover what to do at night, but what do you do in the morning sunshine? Where do you go for a bit of noon delight? Find Cheaprooms.com accommodation in San Franciscoand enjoy all day, every day in the west coast's premier city. San Francisco is great place to bring the family - there's plenty to do and see. Check out the good deals on Cheap Rooms and look for packages that also include breakfast - this will save you a lot of money. Morning is of course breakfast time, so your first visit of the day should be a good one! We love the Ferry Building marketplace close to the financial district. It's in South Beach and was built in 1898. Today it's a series of delightful shops and eateries downstairs and offices upstairs. Try the coffee and waffles at Blue Bottle to get your engines humming, or if you're after more substantial fare, try Tasty Salted Pig Parts. Yup. Bacon. Lots of it. Make your way to the Castro for some noon time delight of the seafood sandwich kind. Wander the area, cruising the boutiques to work up the appropriate appetite and then duck your head into the Woodhouse Fish Co on Market Street. They're a cheerful little place and it's all about fresh seafood sandwiches - think crab on a roll, or fried clams in a bun with fries. Incredibly bad for you (that butter!), but oh so tasty. Nights in San Francisco are a delight if you've hit on a balmy weekend. By now you've hopefully made your way back through the Financial District, close to Chinatown and found a bar on Columbus Ave called Comstock. You can go casual with just a quiet drink from an enterprising list, or go the whole eat, drink and be merry in the tabled section.
A great night out in Amsterdam

Sure, Amsterdam is a city of the most wonderful museums imaginable, but it's also a great city to have a big night out. Start with quiet drinks in an oh so cool bar, head out for a bite to eat then top off your night at one of the city's eclectic nightclubs. But first, see Cheaprooms.com for quality hotels in the best locations of Amsterdam. There are excellent hotels in Amsterdam and many have packages that represent outstanding value for money. Amsterdam is a very compact city and you are but a walk away from most scenic sites. There are good deals on Cheap Rooms and the city is small enough that your location doesn't matter all that much. Let's start the evening with a cold beer at a great little bar called Belgique on Gravenstraat 2 in the New Side neighborhood. Little is the operative word here - it's tiny with room for barely 30 people so get here early and stay for just one or two. Dutch beer is very good and the atmosphere in this little cave of a place with its dripping candles and cool vibe is, well, cool. Having built up a decent appetite with all that museum cruising throughout the day, it's time to indulge in some gastronomic delight Amsterdam multicultural style. A Fusion can be found at Zeedijk 130 in the Red Light District and it's a suave, loungey, sophisticated, modern Hong Kong style of eatery. Truly a restaurant that takes its cues from the world over and the food is excellent to boot! You've had a drink, you've eaten well; it's now time to hit the clubs! What your tastes are will dictate the kind of club you'll enjoy most, but if you're after a muso style hangout with jazz in the background then Bitterzoet at Spuistraat 2 in New Side will fit your bill. There's live music and DJs and it's more of an intimate experience rather than a pounding house music night out.
Great adventures in New Orleans

Sure, there are great blues bars to inhabit, captivating restaurant experiences to indulge in (so you can tell your friends) and numerous adventures of a nightlife kind to be had in the French Quarter, but what of some of the great outdoor adventures awaiting in New Orleans? First, check cheaprooms.com to find a central hotel in New Orleans so you can enjoy the best of New Orleans - at night and day. Most hotels are great value for money - fabulous locations, and excellent facilities. Find a New Orleans room with a good deal on us and enjoy a weekend break - or longer - in Louisiana's great city escape. Surprisingly close to the city - and just a short taxi ride away - are the swamps and wetlands of the bayous. Getting out here is something entirely different (we imagine) to your normal day to day experience. You can go adventure-lite with a canoe hiring expedition or you can go the whole gator with a tour through the Barataria Preserve. It's Louisiana swamp on a large scale with levee forests, eerie swap woodlands and alligator hang outs galore. The Barataria is south of New Orleans and covers an immense 23,000 acres of swamp, marsh, trails, and waterways, filled to the brim with wildlife. Most of the critters you'll see here are of the feathered variety and the birdlife is certainly visually extraordinary. You'll see plenty of snakes and lizards if you look hard and the occasional gator will pop his head up particularly early morning or at twilight. And after all of that glorious adventure, you're probably ready for a little culinary adventure. New Orleans will not disappoint. Your best bet for beignets (a small square donut, fried and covered in powdered sugar) is Cafe Du Monde, along with a little coffee. The real deal shrimp and alligator sausage cheesecake is a discovery well found at Jacques-Imo's Cafe or how about some turtle soup at the Commander's Place at 1403 Washington Avenue on the corner of Coliseum Street in the Garden District?
Have yourself a lovely three days in Honolulu!

If you're lucky enough to be heading to Hawaii, you'll surely have some serious beach time on your agenda. But what else is there to do? Too easy! Go to Cheaprooms.com and find an excellent value Honolulu hotel room and enjoy the beach, and the other things to do. Base yourself close to Waikiki and that's the beach taken care of. It's also close to the main transport corridors so you can get around the rest of Honolulu - or the island - as you wish. Find cheap accommodation in Honolulu now and get ready to explore the 'must do's' of Honolulu. Hire a car for a day and do a very rewarding - and quick - tour of the island. Head east out of Honolulu towards Hanauma Bay and enjoy the scenery on the way. Leave early because the Bay does get crowded and you'll want to enjoy a swim and some snorkeling. Jump back in the car and continue driving around the top end of the island which will get you to the North Shore. This is an utterly beautiful place. Spend some time just chilling here and then head down the spine of the island back to Honolulu. Get up early one day and do a tour of the Pearl Harbor Memorial, and make time to see the Bowfin and Missouri as well. You'll need to get there early - it opens at 9.30 but the queues build early. Don't be put off by a seemingly large queue because each tour takes about 150 people and they run about 4 tours an hour. Explore the Diamond Head area. You can go by public transport or hire car to the crater and then hike to the top for spectacular views. Do this early in the morning before the heat of the day and then spend the afternoon on the beach or exploring one of the discount shopping malls.
Tour historic Chicago

The Great Chicago Fire burned for three days in October 1871 and killed hundreds, destroying about 3.3 square miles. It had an enormous impact on the city; both as a disaster of epic proportions and in the rebuilding that followed. You can tour landmarks of the event today and get a sense of the historic conflagration. First, check cheaprooms.com to find a central hotel in Chicago so you can enjoy the walking tour, the shopping and the nightlife of Chicago. Most hotels are great value for money - fabulous restaurants, and excellent facilities. Find a Chicago room with a good deal on us and enjoy a weekend break - or longer - in one of America's great cities. If you're interested in the history of the Great Fire, start your journey at the old Court House. It was located where the Chicago City Hall and Cook County Building currently occupy the entire downtown block formed by Randolph, Clark, Washington, and LaSalle streets. LaSalle Street between Washington and Randolph was home to substantial commercial buildings and rather flimsy wooden structures. Many were crowded into the space and these fanned the intensity of the fire in an area close to the local center of government. One of many buildings to go up was the Italianate Briggs House, a grand building solidly built and yet one of many on W Randolph to go very quickly. It was rebuilt and ultimate torn down in the 1920s to make way for further development. Further south was the original Sherman House noted as one of the most impressive buildings erected in the city of Chicago's early years. It was originally built in 1836-37 and was called the City Hotel until a mayor of the city bought it, added two floors and renamed it Sherman House. Again, still heading south, one of the more interesting losses was the building that housed Colonel Wood's museum, 'the Chicago equivalent to P. T. Barnum's New York museum', and its collection of some 150,000 items.
Sports mad? Head to Miami.

Who doesn't love a good game - and who wants to do it in an arena that's open to the warm heavens and you don't freeze every last strand of DNA in trying to watch every move?

It's also home to the University of Miami Hurricanes football team. It also hosts the Orange Bowl, an annual college football bowl game. Sun Life has hosted five Super Bowls and the year round climate makes it an ideal place to catch a game. AmericanAirlines Arena is a sports and entertainment arena located in Downtown Miami, close to the Biscayne Bay area. The Arena is home to the Miami Heat and you can get to it via the Miami Metrorail at Government Center station via free transfers to Metromover Omni Loop. It's also within walking distance from the Historic Overtown/Lyric Theatre Metrorail station. One for the motor sports fans - Homestead-Miami Speedway is in Homestead, Florida. It hosts the Nascar events in Miami, including all three of NASCAR's series: the Sprint Cup Series, Nationwide Series, and the Camping World Truck Series. The track is close to the art deco district of Miami Beach, so if you're staying the beach area, you're just a cab ride away.
The fascinating historic sites of San Diego!

Probably best known for its reputation for having the best climate in the United States, San Diego also has a vast, and somewhat unknown history dating back some four hundred years at least. Take advantage of your stay in San Diego to undertake a fascinating tour of San Diego's historic sites. Check Cheaprooms.com first of all and find a budget room in San Diego and enjoy the weather - and the sights - of San Diego. You're probably best off in and around the Gaslamp Quarter in San Diego - this is where you'll find the best restaurants and plenty to do of a night. Find cheap accommodation in San Diego and get to know the real story behind this lovely city. Two of the most famous landmarks date back to 1769. Fort Presidio of San Diego was built on a hill near the San Diego River. And in July of the same year, Mission San Diego de Alcal� was founded by Franciscan friars. Both are on the National Historic Landmarks list and they are well worth a visit. The original town of San Diego was located at the foot of Presidio Hill, in the area now known as Old Town San Diego State Historic Park. You can see the Spanish and Mexican influence in many of the old remaining buildings. The site wasn't considered appropriate given that trade was taking place via the harbor and San Diego proper eventually was relocated to 'new town' - to what is now classic Downtown San Diego. San Diego hosted two World's Fairs in the early part of the twentieth century - the Panama-California Exposition in 1915 and the California Pacific International Exposition in 1935. Both were hosted in Balboa Park, and dozens of temporary structures were built in a kind of Spanish/Baroque-style to house the expositions and host the hundreds of thousands of people who attended. These World Fairs put San Diego on the map, as it were, and the temporary buildings became permanent and many still exist today in Balboa.
Sightseeing tips for New York

The center of world cool draws thousands of people every week, but scenic New York is just as fantastic as all the cultural treasures. Find Cheaprooms.com accommodation in New York and enjoy the culture, nightlife and scenic sights of New York. New York hotels vary hugely in price, location and quality. Check out the good deals on Cheap Rooms and look for packages that also include breakfast - this will save you a lot of money. You have to get up close to the Statue of Liberty. It reopens on July 4 after repairs to damage after Hurricane Sandy and this iconic lady is worth the trip out. The boat ride gives the added bonus of seeing the city from the water and this is just as stunning as the statue itself. On a sunny day, take in the National September 11 Memorial, our place of remembrance honoring those who perished in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and February 26, 1993. The two massive pools are set within the original footprint of the towers and this simple idea is all the more dramatic for its lack of complexity. Want to see the historic side of New York - a time when sailing schooners ruled the waves and trade took weeks? Visit the South Street Seaport area for some local history, good shopping and a fascinating museum. It is on the corner of Fulton and South St. While you're here you simply must visit the most famous building in the world - the much storied Empire State Building at 350 Fifth Avenue.
