Book accommodation or wait until we go in april
We are going to Brisbane in April and I was wondering whether to wait until we get out there to book accommodation as we have a pretty loose itinary. However would it be cheaper to book now over the internet? We will be out there for easter and it may be busy.

Re: Book accommodation or wait until we go in april
Snap! We're in Brisbane over Easter too. Have booked our accommodation in advance though...I'm trying to book something for the weekend before in Adelaide at the moment and I am finding that a lot of B and Bs for example have a minimum stay of 3 or 4 nights as it's the school holidays. So you may want to bear that in mind....

Hi Mandy,
Are you going for good or for a look about? We're going to validate in June. Starting off in Sydney and heading up to Brisbane. (Adelaide is possible too)
We're not sure at the moment what type of accomodation would suit us best (Me, Hubby and two small kids) so still sifting through sites etc. We got a copy of "Australia, Where to Stay" by the AA which has an endless list of varied accomodation across OZ. Got a hold of this in our local Watersons Bookshop for about £10. Great book with lots of info.
Hope you have a great time and let us know how things go.
