Price Insights for Merrion Row Hotel and Public House
- Lowest Price Period: Absolute lows and best value windows: the dataset's absolute low is $264 (2026-08-16). There is a sustained low-price window in winter off-peak: many nights in Jan–Feb 2027 are $284. In short, the cheapest periods are mid-August low-days and the Jan–Feb 2027 winter window (many dates at $284).
- Potential Savings: Maximum observed savings: up to about $790 (book an off-peak night at $264 vs the single-night peak of $1,054 on 2026-12-31). Compared with the dataset's common/stable rate of $454, booking in off-peak ($264–$284) typically saves ≈$170–$190 (≈37%). Shifting stay from high-demand weekend/holiday dates (Sept/Dec peaks) to midweek/off-peak dates commonly yields 20–40% savings.
- Average Rate: Average across the provided date range is approximately $490 (the most frequently-seen rate is $454). Many calendar blocks are fixed at $454 across Apr–Jul 2027 and other months, which acts as the typical/standard rate to compare against.
- Booking Tip: If your travel is flexible: target Jan–Feb 2027 midweek dates or the isolated mid-August low ($264) for the best rates. Avoid travelling on obvious peak dates (e.g., 2026-09-22/23, 2026-12-31) when rates exceed $1,000. For peak-season stays, book early (3–6 months out) and choose refundable or flexible rates if available. For off-peak/midweek trips you can often wait for deals but set price alerts and monitor 30–90 days before travel. Also: shift nights from weekend to Mon–Thu where possible, compare alternative nearby dates (many consecutive days show $284 vs $454), and lock a rate if you see the low price for your exact dates.
