How we picked these
22 cities the founder has either lived in for 7+ nights or interviewed travelers about extensively. No cities included just because they have hotels we earn well on. No ranking by commission rate.
The "from $X / week" number is the lowest current 7-night, 1 adult total in our search API as of the last refresh. It refreshes when we manually re-pull, typically quarterly. Click any city to see the live price right now.
A green "Guide" badge means we've published a full settle-in guide at /city/[slug].
Cities without guides go straight to a /search query for that destination, where you'll
see the same per-result commission disclosure as everywhere else on the site.
