[quote=Anonymous]We just did this with an almost 2 year old, but just one city.  I'd go with the air bnb.  We've done a fair amount of travel with her so far, and it's always easiest to stay in a place with a separate room for her crib and at least a small kitchenette.

Grocery shopping in Europe isn't hard (it's kind of fun, actually!).  You can figure out what most things are by appearance, pictures, or text (even if you don't speak the language).

My toddler needs to eat within 10 minutes of waking up, so even when we're in a regular hotel room, we have milk and cereal on hand.

She could nap in the other room while we relaxed, read, etc. in the rest of the space.  We also had a good amount of space to spread out.

She half-adjusted to the time-change, which was 6 hours ahead -- her nap and bedtime were pushed back by ~ 3 hours (she napped from ~ 4-6pm European time, went to bed around 9/10pm).   So we'd sightsee after breakfast, she'd sometimes nap in the stroller, then head back for an afternoon nap before dinner.

We did takeout a few times for dinner and found neighborhood restaurants -- it was actually good to eat on the early side with a toddler.

The place we stayed at didn't have laundry, but that would have been a HUGE win.  [/quote]
