Brits looking to travel to Spain in the coming months could be surprised by much higher travel costs than this time last year, new research has revealed.
For a week's getaway, it is likely that you'll pay at least £505 more now than you would have this time last year, the Liverpool Echo reports. The findings from foreign exchange expert eurochange, follows a year-on-year comparison on accommodation fees, restaurant meals, car hire and currency exchange rates - with "significant" increases across the board in mainland Spain.
This sum doesn't take flights into account, which are also reported to cost around 45% more now than they did this time last year, so the price hike will be even higher. Hotel rates have also risen hugely, with a one-night stay now amounting to £84 per night, as opposed to £62 in 2021, while car hire prices have also risen dramatically.
