Change language:

DiscoverCars.com has created a ranking of the best Autumn getaway destinations for the second year in a row. Barcelona was revealed as the top destination for 2023.

DiscoverCars.com have ranked the best destinations in Europe for an Autumn getaway. This is the second year they have completed this ranking, they used the same ten cities plus five new locations to visualise how the results have altered over the past twelve months.

To do this, they explored factors such as the average cost of hiring a rental vehicle for a week and the number of budget hotels in each city. The destinations were then scored out of 120 and ranked accordingly.

As DiscoverCars.com ranked these cities last year, we are able to make comparisons between the two rankings.

First, let’s remind ourselves of 2022’s results, the top five locations for an Autumn getaway last year were:

  1. Budapest

  2. Barcelona

  3. Lisbon

  4. Berlin

  5. Copenhagen

Speaking on the rankings, Aleksandrs Buraks at DiscoverCars.com said:

‘’Summer may be coming to an end but that doesn’t mean holidays have to also. Our annual ranking of the top Autumn getaway destinations yielded some interesting results – particularly with no location retaining its position from last year’s ranking.

‘’Our inclusion of five new cities was useful for further comparison between countries, as we wanted to give travellers as many options as possible when considering the location of their next Autumn escape.

Now that we’ve familiarised ourselves with the previous ranking, it’s time to see how the top five have altered over the past twelve months.

The top five destinations for a European Autumn getaway were:

  1. Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona improved on its 2022 result by moving up one spot to take first place. The Spanish city received a score of 98 out of 120 points. With the highest number of cheap restaurants (1,793) and budget hotels (534), there are certainly plenty to choose from when visiting the Catalonian city.
