Tell us your favourite European seaside hotels offering affordable glamour

Finding affordable hotel accommodation in Europe’s coastal hotspots in summer can be a challenge, especially if you’d rather not settle for a soulless budget chain or youth hostel. Whether it’s a grand old hotel on the French Riviera that oozes faded glamour or a charming guesthouse on the Amalfi coast, we’d love to hear about European seaside hotels that feel special without blowing the budget.

The best tip of the week, chosen by Tom Hall of Lonely Planet, wins a £200 voucher to stay at a Coolstays property; the company has more than 3,000 worldwide. The best tips will appear in the Travel section and website. Keep your tip to about 100 words. If you have a relevant photo, do send it in, but it is your words we will be judging for the competition.

We’re sorry, but for legal reasons you must be a UK resident to enter. The competition closes on Monday 8 June at 10am BST. Share your tip using the form below. Responses can be anonymous and the form is encrypted.
