Booking Tips for UK Fans

  1. Book now — tournament accommodation is already being reserved by tour operators
  2. Cancellation policy — book refundable rates where possible in case fixtures change
  3. Airbnb — often 30-50% cheaper than hotels for groups; check local regulations
  4. Location over luxury — proximity to stadium and public transport matters more than star rating
  5. Consider group bookings — splitting a 2-bed apartment between 4 fans is the cheapest option
