Check-out day is included, so you can also see if you arrive or leave on a holiday. ### Should you avoid these dates? If the event is why you are going, those are your dates. Just expect different prices and faster sell-outs, so decide on the room you need and compare early. ### Where the data comes from Holidays start from open public-holiday data and are corrected where official government calendars differ. Events and holiday periods are listed only when organisers or governments have announced them. ## Choose a country - [**Australia**Sydney]() - [**Japan**Tokyo]() - [**Taiwan**Taipei]() - [**United States**Honolulu]()
