Where to stay is a big concern for many travelers, although there's certainly no shortage of accommodations in Europe. Basic choices include hotels, pensions, B&Bs, youth hostels, and short-term vacation or holiday rentals. In some countries, you can stay on a farm or book a private room through the local tourist office; in others, you may be able to rent sleeping quarters in a lighthouse, a boat, or even (in Northern Sweden) an "ice hotel" that melts every spring.
