If you want to travel in style without paying through the nose for it, these are the destinations to consider.

Hotels.com’s latest hotel price index compared the average prices paid for hotels in 2014 and 2013, including five-star accommodations. It found destinations in Europe and Asia offered the most affordable five-star hotels globally, with Warsaw topping the list.

According to Hotels.com’s analysis, prices for rooms in Asia continue to offer the best-value luxury hotel deals for Australian travellers; especially when airfares are taken into account. Europe has also become a more affordable destination thanks to the depreciating Euro.

The world’s most affordable five-star accommodation destinations for Australians in 2014 were as follows:

Destination Average AUD price/night 2014
Warsaw $147
Mumbai $187
Bangkok $197
Delhi $198

Guangzhou $220
Budapest $229
Brussels $232
