Hostels and Hotels | Accommodation in the Far East

If your questions are not fully answered here, go to our Far East Travel Forum for all the answers.
If you heading to the Far East for a gap year or travelling for an extended period of time, you are unlikely to want to book all your hotel or hostel accommodation upfront. However, when arriving in new cities overseas it is always best to have a hotel or hostel prebooked for the first few nights to ensure you have somewhere to stay on arrival. Also for holiday periods and festivals it is also adviseable to book well in advance. We have picked a couple of companies that between them provide a range of hotels and hostels for all budgets in locations across Asia. They can also be booked as much as a year in advance, or if you're not as well organised as that, they also offer some great last minute deals, with secure online booking.
