1 Star Hotels

One-star hotels are something of an endangered species! With many travellers and holidaymakers assuming one-star hotels leave something to be desired, most cheap hotels and budget hotels strive for 2 star hotel status. The truth is, some of the best 1 star hotels are more than a match for their 2 star hotel rivals! We review one-star hotels when we feel the hotel offers something over and above what you would expect from a cheap guest house or a cheap motel. Some of the best one-star hotels are found in city break favourites like Tallinn and Amsterdam. Cheap one-star hotels can even be historic landmark hotels in cities like Prague and Berlin. Basic one star city-centre hotels have always been popular with younger travellers, but a new generation of cheap and trendy hostels are contributing to their decline. Our online hotel search is a convenient way to find those elusive good cheap 1 star hotel bargains!

 

One-star beach hotels are a very rare thing indeed. The cheapest hotels in beach holiday favourites like Greece and Cyprus will be cheap bed and breakfast hotels (normally 2 and 3 star), and cheap self-catering apartments and studios. You are exceedingly unlikely to find 1 star hotels in Turkey and Egypt beach resorts since even 4 star and 5 star hotels are remarkably cheap! The same goes for exotic destinations like Morocco, Tunisia, Goa and Gambia! Similarly, few hotels in the Caribbean or Dubai would wish to stoop to one-star status! You can search and book 1 star hotels online or by phone with directline-hotels.

 

Traditional 1 star hotels in France are sadly a dying breed. One star French hotels have always guaranteed plenty of character! Cheap hostels and modern motels are more in fashion. Increasingly rare one-star hotels in Spain and Portugal are often cheap guest houses for long-term residents. Closer to home you will find a smattering of fairly basic 1 star hotels in the UK.
