When to book hotel

Hi I've booked flight for a city break in a few weeks.
But hotels and even air bnb seem expensive. ..like 50 per night at lower end.

Are they likely to come down or just go up.

What's the formula?

    Where are you going?
    Prices depend on a lot of factors such as what events might be on at any particular time, eg a Wednesday night in Manchester is a lot cheaper when United are not playing than when they are or a headline act at the Arena.

    Going to Scandinavia. ..departing on a Saturday in a few weeks for a few nights.

    Air bnb, which I've never used, was cheeky in that I put in my dates only to find they were for one night not the duration


    Bit apprehensive about meeting a randomer and staying in their flat while they're away but definitely better standard and very well done luxuriously than hotels in my range

    Perhaps you could bring a tent?
