Most expensive place you have ever visited?

[YourPerkyPoet]

We live in Zone 1 so thought we are used to expensive prices. Where have you been that you thought “ouch! that’s expensive.”

For us it has to be Mykonos and Ibiza, total rip offs. We didn’t find New York too bad and thought Barbados was okay too.

Copenhagen. Super expensive and boring as hell
I'll give you expensive but it's definitely not boring!

California- San Francisco and LA $57 for two plate of pasta, two beers and in flatbread at a place you had to serve yourself and it was paper plate (too expensive to employ servers)

LA one burger and two beers in a pub - $35

Cornwall. £380 a night to stay in a log cabin (tarted up B&Q garden shed). It had a "hot tub" which turned out to be a big tin bath that guests had to fill from a water tank, which needed a wood fire lit underneath two hours beforehand.

This was all down a muddy track at the bottom of a farmers field.

A five night stay at a luxury hotel in Budapest, with breakfast and a real hot tub, only cost us £1200 (including flights).

The UK is a rip off!

@Chiseltip I’m not sure how you found that holiday but in high season my high specced 3 bed, 3/4 bath house is £225 a night. I’d search a bit more widely! No hot tub but glorious views!

St Moritz. The rest of Switzerland wasn't too bad.

Venice. Think a can of Orangina was about fifteen quid.

Norway generally.

We went to Sweden last year and I found it reasonable - kind of like mainland Europe / France. Food was great quality both in restaurants and supermarkets. Denmark I find similar.

Wow, thank you so much for all the Copenhagen recommendations. It'll either be just me, or me and my partner. (Though I'd love to see the children's museum myself!)

We don't do lots of eating out, happy with supermarket picnics in our room!

If anyone has any recommendations of places/areas to stay that would be fab.

Thank you, I'm really excited about going now!

I think Switzerland is quite expensive though thinking mainly of mountain restaurants and resorts. £35 for a burger type thing. And 8 chf for a bottle of tap water.
st Tropez also, similar for a small salad.
or 200 euro for a plate of crudités including bizarrely whole carrots and tomatoes. They couldn’t even be arsed to chop it up and people would still pay 😆

Las Vegas..32 dollars for a flat white and sausage and egg muffin in starbucks!

Dublin. NYC.

I find London actually pretty affordable - some stuff is bananas expensive and accommodation is a bit tricky but the beautiful thing is that there is great stuff - eating out wise, culturally - available for pretty cheap also!

Dubrovnik. Every round of drinks seems to be 100 euros whether alcohol or not!

Barbados can be bad but you can find bargains.
Just been to Disney though and was surprised prices weren't that bad. I think it's because everything is so expensive here now.
