Whether you are heading back to school, college, work or just a bit down in the dumps with northern hemisphere wintry weather, January can be a dreary month. The best way to deal with these January blues is to book yourself a holiday. And with HostelBookers’ January Sale in full swing, now is the time to bag some 2011 deals and book accommodation with up to 30% off.

Here are just a few of the destinations featured in the sale:

Amsterdam
If you enjoyed a few too many mince pies at Christmas, Amsterdam is a great place to ease yourself into gentle activity. The city is made for cycling with well-mapped routes and cycle lanes. Alternatively, take it easy and wander the pretty streets or pop in to one of the many art galleries. If you are looking for hostels Amsterdam has plenty in the city centre.

Dublin
Whether or not you go in for a pint of the local Guinness brew, the pubs and bars are the city’s biggest draw. Here you can meet friendly Dubliners, savour the sounds of live and upbeat fiddle music and really get to grips with what makes Dublin tick. At hostels in Dublin you will find welcoming staff always happy to suggest things to see and do in the city.

Florence
A firm favourite amongst romantics and art-lovers, travellers will have the Uffizi, the Accademia and the Ponte Vecchio on their must-see list. But Florence rewards even the aimless wanderers with many historic buildings, beautiful churches and inviting trattorias.  If you are looking for a city centre youth hostel Florence has cheap accommodation near Santa Maria Nouvella train station, the Boboli Gardens and the Piazza della Signoria.

Kuala Lumpur
A welcome clash of old meets new awaits you in the Malaysian capital. Veg on delicious street food from vendors or settle in to one of the many Wi-Fi-enabled coffee houses. It might have a skyline dominated by skyscrapers but it is also one of the greenest cities in Southeast Asia. If you are looking for a hostel Kuala Lumpur offers cheap accommodation with plenty of character.

Los Angeles
With over 20 beaches to choose from Los Angeles really is the place to soak up the sunshine. There are plenty of people-watching opportunities along Venice Beach or have a whirlwind romance with the stars along the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Look out for free events and a free breakfast at hostels in Los Angeles.
