In its monthly Hotel Price Index report, Trivago said December 9 that although the cost of a double room in Europe this month has fallen, some travelers are likely to pay considerably more for a New Year\'s getaway.A trip to the normally reasonable destination of Prague for New Year\'s for instance, costs 268 percent more than the €98 December average, Trivago calculated, with revelers likely to pay a whopping €360 for the average double room. Similar increases over the New Year can also be seen in Venice, where prices have risen from €133 to €308, and Amsterdam, up to €272 from a December average of €124. Despite the expense of a New Year\'s room, several cities across Europe have seen healthy price drops for travelers since November -- London is ten percent cheaper this month (€186), Barcelona and Bucharest are 12 percent cheaper (€103 and €72 respectively) and Istanbul is nine percent cheaper (€102).
