Taylor Swift has officially taken over the world. Her Eras Tour was the first tour to gross over $1 billion (!). If you haven’t been able to snag a coveted concert ticket to her global tour de force, not to worry: there are still tickets — and hotel rooms — available in upcoming concert destinations.
We’ve selected five such destinations, and recommended two hotels in each. The first has rooms available (yes, even during the concert dates) below $500 a night, while the other is a splurge-worthy stay if you’re looking to go all out (it’s a special occasion, after all).
Read on to learn where to stay, and then jump on those tickets asap. Then connect with Fora. We’ll handle everything else, so you can focus on what’s most important: seeing Taylor.
July 13–14: Milan, Italy at the San Siro Stadium
Starhotels E.c.ho.

“E.c.ho.” is short for “ecological contemporary hotel,” a designation this Green Globe-certified stay — and one of Fora’s five top-booked hotels in Milan — takes seriously. Toiletries are made from recycled products, the restaurant serves organic fare with a slow-food ethos, energy use and waste disposal have been dialed in and the hotel actively supports its local community, especially through social activities and building a healthy urban environment. Design-wise, expect natural forms, soothing colors and lots of plants.
Fora Perks:
A welcome drink, breakfast daily, an upgrade whenever possible & late check-out.

Armani Hotel Milano

True to its name, Armani Hotel Milano is a master of style. It’s sleekly minimalist, with lots of clean lines and keen aesthetic restraint. The time to book is now: the hotel is offering an exclusive Eras Tour booking package. Reserve one of their suites, and you’ll get two Eras Tour tickets, round-trip transfers and access to the venue’s VIP Sky Lounge. A pro tip from Fora Advisor Brian Baldwin, who has personally stayed here: schedule the 80-minute Fluidità Facial Massage in advance to “combat the side effects of the long flight.”
Fora Perks (Eras Tour package edition):
Two concert tickets with private entrance to the VIP Sky Lounge, €200 food / beverage or spa credit, a welcome amenity, complimentary mini bar & breakfast daily.
July 27–28: Munich, Germany at the Olympiastadion
Roomers Munich

This design hotel, also one of Fora’s top hotels in Munich, is eclectic, bold and playful. It’s contemporary and youthful — lots of gold, color and cheeky surprises that somehow work. A pink statue of a giraffe or a canine objet d’art perched on the counter don’t feel out of place here. The sexy, dimly lit spa — complete with a cinema showing classic films — is the perfect place to unwind after a late night spent singing along to Taylor.
Fora Perks:
A welcome amenity, breakfast daily, an upgrade whenever possible & late check-out.
Rosewood Munich

This stately, centrally located stay — a stone’s throw from the city’s Marienplatz Square — exudes European elegance with a warm, inviting flair. It’s housed in two buildings, one a former bank, the other an aristocratic residence. Timeless sophistication masterfully blends with modern sensibility. Limestone sculptures, marble and ornate detailing mingle with vibrant local art and the strategic pop of color. It’s no wonder Rosewood Munich is among our 10 top-booked hotels in the city.
Fora Perks:
€100 hotel / resort credit, a welcome amenity, breakfast daily, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.
August 1–3: Warsaw, Poland at PGE Narodowy
The Westin Warsaw

The Westin, among Fora’s five top-booked hotels in the Polish capital, is conveniently located right in the business district. Trust the hotel’s local recommendations, from restaurants and shops to yoga studios and rock-climbing gyms — all of which are curated with your wellbeing in mind. Plus, it's less than a 15-minute drive from the concert venue. After seeing Taylor, retreat to your comfortable room, equipped with Westin's signature Heavenly Beds and sweeping city views.
H15 Boutique Hotel

Each of the 47 rooms in this artistic gem, housed in a 19th-century tenement, is unique. But all are vibrantly decorated, with funky, fun touches like cheetah-print wallpaper, bold stripes and aesthetically loud (in the best way) artwork. Don’t miss a meal of elevated Polish cuisine at the pink-hued on-site restaurant, whose walls are lined with original photographs by Milton Green.
Fora Perks:
A welcome amenity, complimentary bike rental, breakfast daily & an upgrade whenever possible.
August 8–10: Vienna, Austria at Ernst Happel Stadion
Almanac Palais Vienna

Almanac hotels (you’ll also love their hotel in Prague) are experts at curating young, stylish stays in bustling, historic locales. Their Vienna location — Fora’s third most-booked hotel in the Austrian capital — is no exception. The hotel is dark and sexy, a socially and eco-conscious spot that champions the expertise of local artists and designers. (Almanac even collaborates with local experts when designing their hotels’ signature scents.) Fora Advisor Lisa Van Brunt has booked the hotel specifically for clients attending the Taylor Swift concert.
“The Almanac Vienna is an affordable option for families who need to book two rooms but don't want to sacrifice modern amenities and a central location,” she said.
Plus, their beds are some of the largest we’ve seen, and the on-site Donnersmarkt Restaurant is excellent. A modern alpine menu showcases the best seasonal, regional produce.
Fora Perks:
Spa access, breakfast daily, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.
Hotel Sacher Wien

This historic Viennese icon is elegant, ornate and luxurious. It’s one of Fora’s top 10 hotels in Vienna for a reason. Expect sumptuous fabrics, crystal chandeliers and moody, handsome dining areas. Speaking of dining, you must try the hotel’s famed Sacher-Torte, a satisfyingly dense chocolate cake slathered in apricot jam and dark-chocolate glaze.
Fora Perks:
$100 hotel / resort credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.

The Prince Akatoki

This charming and serene boutique hotel sits just off Hyde Park. Japanese minimalism merges with British sensibilities, and the exceptional hospitality exhibited in both cultures is front and center. The Prince’s design is thoughtful and soft, with neutral hues and a pared back, but nonetheless warm, aesthetic. Fora Advisor Jennifer Lopez called it “a zen oasis in the middle of London, adding that there’s a yoga mat in every room and an evident dedication to promoting calm. Before the concert, savor a masterful Japanese-inflected meal at TOKii. You’ll love the trendy, stylish atmosphere and unfussy vibe.
Fora Perks:
$100 food / beverage credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.
Ham Yard

You can never go wrong with Firmdale Hotels. Designer Kit Kemp’s hotels are veritable galleries, filled with meticulously selected artwork, bold wallpaper, bright colors and tasteful whimsy. Ham Yard Hotel, in the heart of Soho, is the epitome of modern British sophistication. There’s a leafy rooftop terrace, which hosts the on-site vegetable garden, a theatre bedecked with tangerine leather seats and the intimate, chic Soholistic Spa. After seeing Taylor, leave enough time to enjoy the hotel’s legendary afternoon tea the next day.
