Proof of stay/hotel/hostel booking for Schengen visa

Proof of stay/hotel/hostel booking for Schengen visa - Man in Red Long-sleeved Shirt

This question is sort of related to my earlier question . Willeke commented that onward travel should be enough but I want to keep that option open till the last minute. Is there anyway to do that?

I have been looking at few countries in the Schengen environment and most of them seem to ask for an itinerary or/and proof of accommodation. For instance look at conditions for French Visa.

I am looking for multiple entry short stay of 90 days, although in reality it would be more like couple of weeks at the most.

  1. Hotel booking should be for the whole stay in the Schengen area.
