What it means
Booking.com tracked average prices for a hostel stay, month to month, for the entire year of 2016. These are when hostels are having their cheapest months compared to their most expensive, and how much you can save.
This means you're generally looking at a lot of incredible destinations that would be pretty pricey if you visited at the wrong time. Like Dubrovnik in Croatia where it can be 67% cheaper to book for January rather than its peak, or Kuala Lumpur where you can get a room 71% cheaper if you don't mind a bit of tropical rain.
If you want to go to the best places in the world, it's worth finding the best time to visit and avoiding the crowds, because the savings are real. You can find the top five biggest savings destinations for each month below.
