On this occasion, we bring you an article designed so much for those travelers who will visit some european destination in the coming months for leisure reasons (holidays, rest breaks, weekends, etc.) as well as for those who will have to move for less playful and more work or student reasons.
Next, you will be able to know what they are the cheapest and most expensive cities in Europe to visit. We believe that this information is of vital importance because this way we will be able to previously shuffle the expenses that we will have in the destination place as well as change the option at the last minute for a much cheaper destination.
The most expensive cities to stay
London
This is not a novelty, nor does it take us by surprise if we tell you that the most expensive cities to stay today are Paris, London and / or Munich, you are very followed by Brussels, Milan and Amsterdam, all large cities as they could be in the case of Spain, Madrid or Barcelona. However, staying in these two Spanish cities would still be cheaper than staying in either of the aforementioned.
On the opposite side we find Budapest, it would the cheapest city to stay. To give you a brief idea of the difference in prices, we leave you the average of what a room in a shared flat would cost per month in different cities:
- Budapest: €249.
- Prague: 313 euros.
- Barcelona: 405 euros.
- Rome: 475 euros.
- London, Paris or Munich: more than 500 euros.
This accommodation information is especially important for those young people who will soon be leaving or may choose a destination for their Erasmus scholarship.
The most expensive cities to eat
warsaw
United Kingdom repeats again in the list of the most expensive. Now it also does it in a matter of restoration. The most expensive European cities to eat are: London, Paris, Milan, Munich, Amsterdam and Brussels. Practically the same as to stay in them.
On the other hand the cheapest to eat are: Budapest, Prague, Porto, Warsaw, Lisbon, Barcelona, Berlin, Madrid and Rome (in that order, from most to economical to least).
And as for means of transport and their price?
Another very important point to know is what means of transport we would have in each of these European cities and where it would be more expensive and cheaper to travel.
London takes back the palm of the most expensive European city since a transport pass costs 104 euros per month. On the other hand and in contrast, we find other cities that for 12 euros a month or less we can move around the city. In order, from the cheapest place to the most expensive in this area, they would be: Brussels, Prague, Munich, Budapest and Warsaw. These are followed by: Milan, Paris, Porto, Madrid, Rome, Berlin, Lisbon, Barcelona, Amsterdam and finally, London.
Final conclusion
Taking into account all these factors: accommodation, food and transport, we could conclude that those European cities in which we could be for less than 500 euros per month, would Budapest, Prague, Porto, Warsaw and Lisbon (In these, perhaps the Erasmus scholarship is enough for all this). However, if we want to be in better-known, more popular and also more visited cities, such as London, Milan or Paris, our budget must undoubtedly be much higher than 500 euros per month.

This financial study has been led by 'Uniplace', designed especially for Erasmus students who will visit these European cities in the coming months.
The most popular 'Erasmus' destinations
Spain continues to lead one more year with the number of European students it welcomes each year for its Erasmus program, so we could say that our country is the most popular destination among all.
It is followed by Germany, France, the United Kingdom and Italy ... Far behind are countries such as Malta, Slovakia and Estonia.
Of all the Spanish universities, the one that welcomes the most Erasmus students is the University of Granada (and we are not surprised since it is a very charming city with a great young atmosphere). This is followed by the University of Valencia, the University of Seville and the Complutense of Madrid.
