Eg. Which sites would check to decide what places in a city to visit, what time to visit, which local restaurants to try out etc?

Google Trips is a great fairly new product from Google for organizing all your travel info and discovering places when you go.

TripAdvisor
I rely heavily on TripAdvisor before I travel anywhere. I can get reviews on hotels I am thinking of staying in. I can see great places to eat that have good reviews and can see photos of the type of food they have on offer and how it looks. It's also superb for checking out the top attractions so that when you visit a new city or country you can check out the top landmarks and be sure you didn't miss out anything, as it's always safely stored in the top 10 places to visit. I don't tend to do any booking directly on TripAdvisor, and instead use it as a research tool.

Not exactly what you're looking for, but maybe helpful. Pollunit simplifies the decision-making process with your friends. For example: Where should it go? When should it go there? Who has time? What is your favorite holiday destination? 1
Hostel World
Hostels have improved massively over the years. Some that you stay in now are just as good as budget hotels if not better. The only reason they are listed as hostels is because they have communal areas for self catering etc. Hostelworld is ideal for finding the best places to stay if you want to travel on a budget and not spend out too much on accomodation.
