Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Wicklow cost?
Budget hotel prices in Wicklow vary, but you can find a great deal from CA $185 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
Which area of Wicklow is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For travellers seeking cheap hotels in Wicklow, areas like Wicklow Town itself and Arklow offer some of the most budget-friendly accommodation options without sacrificing access to the region's natural beauty. These towns provide a good selection of guesthouses, B&Bs, and smaller hotels that are often more affordable than those found in more tourist-centric spots.

Wicklow Town, the county seat, is a charming coastal town with a relaxed atmosphere. Solo travellers will find a decent array of B&Bs and guesthouses, many offering single rooms at competitive rates. It's an excellent base for exploring the nearby Wicklow Mountains and the coastline, with bus services connecting to various walking trails and attractions. You can enjoy the historic Wicklow Gaol or take a stroll along the harbour without spending a fortune.

Families might find Arklow to be a convenient and cost-effective option. This bustling market town further south along the coast offers a range of family-friendly accommodation, often with more spacious rooms or self-catering facilities at better prices. Arklow is well-connected by train, making it easy to explore other parts of Wicklow or even venture into Dublin for a day trip.
When is the most affordable time to visit Wicklow?
The most affordable time to visit Wicklow is typically during the shoulder seasons, specifically late autumn (October to November) and early spring (March to April), outside of major holidays. During these periods, you'll find lower prices for accommodation and potentially fewer crowds, offering a more relaxed experience.

For solo travellers, these off-peak months mean better deals on guesthouses and B&Bs, and you might even snag some discounts on local tours or activities. The weather can be a bit unpredictable, but you'll still have plenty of opportunities for scenic walks and exploring the beautiful landscapes, often with the added drama of autumnal colours or the freshness of spring.

Couples looking for a romantic and budget-friendly getaway will appreciate the quieter atmosphere and reduced rates. Many of Wicklow's natural attractions, such as Glendalough or the Wicklow Mountains National Park, are free to explore, making them superb for an inexpensive day out. You can pack a picnic and enjoy the stunning scenery without breaking the bank.

While summer offers the best weather, prices for everything from lodging to car hire tend to be at their highest.
Is Wicklow a budget-friendly destination?
While Wicklow is generally considered more expensive than some other Irish counties, travellers can absolutely experience its magic on a budget with some smart planning.

For accommodation, consider staying in guesthouses or self-catering cottages in towns like Arklow or Bray, which often offer better value than those closer to the more touristy areas of Glendalough. These towns are well-connected by local bus routes, making it easier to explore the county without a car.

Much of Wicklow's appeal lies in its breathtaking natural beauty, meaning many of the best activities are free. Couples and solo travellers can spend days hiking the stunning Wicklow Way, exploring the ancient monastic site of Glendalough (with free entry to the grounds), or enjoying the peaceful beaches along the coast. Picnics with provisions from local shops are a fantastic way to save on dining costs while enjoying the scenic surroundings.
How can I save on a budget hotel in Wicklow with Expedia?
There are plenty of ways to save on a budget hotel in Wicklow. Unlock our lowest prices by joining One Key™, Expedia's travel rewards program. It's free and easy to sign up, and you can access member perks too. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. If you're feeling spontaneous, be sure to check for last-minute deals.
What free activities should we do in Wicklow?
Wicklow offers a wealth of free activities, primarily centred around its stunning natural landscapes and charming historical sites.

For solo travellers, exploring the Wicklow Mountains National Park is a must. You can embark on numerous hiking trails, such as those around Glendalough, where you can wander through ancient monastic ruins, marvel at the two picturesque lakes, and enjoy the tranquil forest paths without spending a penny. The scenic drives through the Sally Gap also offer breathtaking views and numerous spots for a picnic.

Families will appreciate the coastal walks and beach access. Brittas Bay, with its extensive sandy beach, is great for a free day out, where children can play in the sand and paddle in the sea. Bray's promenade offers a lovely stroll along the seafront, leading to Bray Head, which has a moderately challenging but rewarding walk with panoramic views of the coastline.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Wicklow as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Wicklow for you.
