It depends on where you're going and I'll usually price both, but in the US I've usually found that a full-home Airbnb with two bedrooms is as cheap as an acceptably sized hotel room, with the added benefit of an easier checkin and checkout, no next-wall neighbors to worry about, and a full suite including kitchen and living room. The only time lately where a hotel has made more sense for us has been when we're intentionally choosing the cheapest possible motel because we're arriving late and leaving early (a stop on a road trip). Edit: I should probably clarify that my kids are light sleepers and won't go down easily while there's movement in the room, so the standard cramped-quarters 2xQueen arrangement that hotels offer isn't really viable for us for a longer stay. We need a space where the adults can go while the kids go to sleep.
