We got 3, we went for 3 because we felt that was right for us and because our first 2 were boys and also wanted a girl which we got.

I vote 3.

There is no paying for two kids and getting the 3rd free.
This is a good point, the way I play it I put 4 people in booking.com and force the 2 boys to sleep together. Problem solved, my kids are now 16,14,10 and we have coasted like this for the past 10 years in every single western country.

Often the hoteliers realise what's going but they never ever say a word(and if they do, they will simply charge like a £10 or £20 for extra linen + city tax for the extra individual) as we check-in all 5 of us for either 2 double rooms or a room for 4.
