Practical guides for your first trip to a city — what a week actually costs, when prices drop, and what to do on days one to five. A new city most days.

Built a thing. Five questions, when you're going, what you can spend in a day, how long you've got, beach or city, what you want more of. It scores the 12 cities we've priced month by month and shows the three that fit, and says why. Where does it send you?

October is the cheapest month of the year to be in Bangkok. $76 a night median when we checked, against $132 in November.

The catch is it rains most afternoons. That's the whole catch.

Would you take the rain for 40% off?

$83 a night for a hotel with a rooftop pool. In Bangkok that's just a normal price, and it wrecks how you budget, because $83 is a hostel bed in most of Europe.

So if the room costs half what you expected, what do you blow the rest on?

Bangkok Around the Heat: Dawn in the Old City, the River by Day, Rooftops After Dark
Heat is the only thing that will ruin a Bangkok trip, and it is entirely plannable: temples at eight, the river through the middle of the day, the modern city after dark. Do that in the cool season and a hotel with a rooftop infinity pool costs $83 a night, with February's median sitting at $93.

A London hotel room runs a median $99 a night in January and $332 in July. Same room, same city, different month. We priced twelve months for eight cities so you can see that before you book instead of after.
