How many hotels does lastminute.com sell?
On 17 September 2026, lastminute.com had a current price for 430 hotels of the 8,198 hotels priced across the tracked cities — 5% of the market — in 12 cities.
Is lastminute.com usually the cheapest site?
lastminute.com had the lowest price in 6% of the 5,496 contests it took part in on 17 September 2026 — stays that at least one other site quoted too. That places it 18th of the 26 sites with a track record; Trip.com leads at 66%.
Is lastminute.com cheaper than the other booking sites?
lastminute.com's price typically sits within 1% of the median site quoting the same stay — it is the market, neither a discounter nor a premium. That is the median over 5,496 contests: half the time the gap was smaller, half the time larger, and the per-hotel board on each page shows the actual one.
Where is lastminute.com the cheapest most often?
Amsterdam: lastminute.com had the lowest price in 10% of its 676 contests there. Its weakest is Prague, at 2%.
What do these percentages measure?
Every figure here comes from stays at least two sites priced on the same day: how often lastminute.com had the lowest price (ties count), and how far its price sat from the median site, taken as the median over all its contests. A site with fewer than 200 contests or under 5% of the hotels is left out of the ranking — one lucky week is not a track record.
When were these prices last checked?
As of 17 September 2026: every figure here is a quote read from the site on that collection day, the latest of which was 17 September 2026. Nothing is live — a site can have moved since — so treat the numbers as the state of the market at collection, and the seller's page as the price.
Where do I actually book?
No — StayScope compares, it does not sell. Each offer is a link to the seller that quoted it; the reservation, the payment and the cancellation terms are the seller's.
