Help in choosing best hotel prices

Hi - I vaguely recall Google having a feature where you could see hotel prices in Celendar View over the next few months, so you could easily pick out the most economical dates for travel. Does anyone know how to access this or possibly have come across any alternative sites that offer a Calendar view? Thanks

    You can use pricefinder.travelodge.co.uk/ for Travelodge.

    Edit - You need to copy/paste the address, as the affiliate link attached to it forces you to the travelodge homepage. (edited)

    They used to have a bar chart view of the month, but they removed it.

    They do show prices on the calendar when viewing a specific hotel, but not when browsing results for a location.

    Booking.com has a flexible option now on their search, you can select the number of nights and then up to 3 months to search. Only draw back is you have to pick a check-in day.

    Kayak has a heat-map view on their date selection, but this is based on average prices, so isn't a true cheapest-to-expensive view.

    You can ask Google's AI, Bard, to find out the cheapest dates, but is a bit hit-and-miss. Especially if you attempt the holy grail of cheapest dates when factoring both flights and hotels.
