29. Dublin, Ireland
Why you should go: Dublin is one of the friendliest cities in the world, and there’s no better time to grab a stool in one of the hundreds of pubs and share a pint than when it’s freezing outside. And it may be the rainiest season, but touring The Guinness Storehouse or Dublin’s many distilleries will keep you dry (and warm).
Why it’s a steal: The median airfare to Dublin is $546 between December and March. Hotel rooms go for an average nightly rate of $182, a savings of 14 percent.Â
Where to stay: The Devlin Hotel is in the buzzy neighborhood of Ranelagh, with 40 uniquely designed rooms complete with luxury touches, like Dyson hair dryers, power showers, and Nespresso machines. In the basement, there’s the Stella Theatre, a recently refurbished 1920s cinema that screens new releases, indie films, arthouse movies, and cult classics. Rooms start at $136 per night.Â
