Which area of Elphinstone is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers seeking cheap hotels in Elphinstone, the central Elphinstone area, particularly around the main street, offers the most accessible and affordable accommodation options. This area often features a higher concentration of guesthouses, motels, and independent hotels that cater to travellers looking for value.

Staying centrally means you're often within walking distance or a short bus ride of local eateries and shops, which can save on transportation costs. Solo travellers will find it convenient to explore the town's main attractions, such as the local market or the historical society, without needing a car.
When is the most affordable time to visit Elphinstone?

During these periods, you can often find lower prices on accommodation and flights compared to the peak summer months.

Solo travellers will find these times particularly appealing as the weather is pleasant—not too hot or humid—making outdoor activities enjoyable without the larger crowds and higher prices of the peak season. This also means you'll have more flexibility with last-minute bookings.

While winter (June to August) is also a good option for cooler weather, it can sometimes see a slight increase in prices due to visitors escaping colder southern climates.
