Secondly, if we start to analyze the hospitality situation, there is also talk of a somewhat affectionate budget.

Normally a night in a good hotel in Spain could cost between €118.00 Y €190.00.

That apart from considering the hotels according to their number of stars (that is, their quality and popularity), the cost also varies according to the Zone in which you are, it will depend on whether the zone is Tourist or not.

Since, for example, there are seasons like Summer, where there is a greater flow of tourists, and because of that, the hotels are more crowded and charge more.

It would not be the same as when autumn begins, when there is already a lower flow and greater discounts are beginning to be made in luxurious hotels that you could not even dream of paying in the summer season.

About food

The food will be based on your budget and your tastes.

Obviously a plate of food in an a la carte restaurant will not be the same as two hamburgers in a fast food restaurant on the corner.

If you are going as a backpacker who just went to explore Spain a bit, well food really shouldn’t be a problem, you could easily get by with €60.00 diaries.

That price will include breakfast, lunch, dinner, and two desserts.
