Best way to pay

I am sorry if this question has been asked many times. But i am having to go away at short notice ( 2days from now) I am wondering which way would be best to pay for my hotel while away (Euros) Should i find the best exchange rate on the highstreet or just pay by my debit card (Santander). The hotel will cost about £100 so i am not sure if it will make much difference cost wise or not which way i pay.
Any help would be appreciated

Paying using an average credit/debit card is generally cheaper than changing cash at an average high street exchange place.
For a relatively small amount like £100 you're not going to notice much difference. What about other expenses like eating out?Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks

Thanks for reply. I am away for 2 days so i think i may spend (including the hotel) £250. I may just take a lump some of £250 out with card while im there and pay the hotel and use the rest for food etc.
Thanks for advice!0
