I was bidding, adding free zones, and after my 4th try it came back and said check back your status later. It sent me an email to check the status, which was again rejected. Any insight into what triggers this? Take it a positive or hang it up for the day?

November 30 - December 5 in WDW A 3.5* hotel with three icons - dining, pool and high speed internet. $36 a night. I'm tempted, particularly if it's one of the downtown disney hotels. Doubletree? Royal Plaza? Anyone?

Would you mind sharing what makes you think the 4* hotel for $65 on these dates is the Dolphin? Just a hunch or is there something unique in the icon list? I'm pretty sure that the Wyndham is showing up for $69 around the same dates.

I agree, I think that the customer favorite probably is the Hilton - which is very nice hotel and very convenient to downtown disney. Although...it's interesting to note that the Hilton is not shown as a package. A hotwire rep says that the customer favorite tag will always show up with an associated hotel. If that is true, then there are two 4* hotels, one at a rate of $68 that is a customer favorite, and one at a rate of $69 that is not. They have the same four amenity icons... Now if there are two hotels, why can't I get both of them to show up on the same date? Hotwire says they don't alternate and tried to say the hotels must have different availability. This is not true - one is available for a week...the other for specific days within that week. Somewhere along the line, what hotline is saying about their programming doesn't add up. The only thing they can tell me for sure is that it may or may not be a different hotel. That much I knew.

Sorry, I should have not said "etc". The icons for both the 4* customer favorite hotel at $68 and 4* hotel at $69 both have the same four icons: rest, pool, gym, business services. And the zone is WDW. Looking for clues in the packages doesn't help. The Royal Plaza shows up at 3.5*, so let's assume they're consistent with the star rating and eliminate that hotel. Other 4* hotels in the WDW zone under packages include Celebration Hotel and Swan. Celebration hotel is a possibilty I guess...although at one point there was a comment about the customer favorite hotel being across from downtown disney, which rules out Celebration, which is on the other side of I-4. Let's assume that comment could still be applied to our mystery customer favorite. Also, the amenities don't match up either. The Swan is also not downtown disney and also lists more amenities...the Swan at those prices would be a steal anyway... My two cents would be that either the hotels offered under hotel only are not the same offered in the packages, or else hotwire is inconsistent with the amenities list. I still suspect the hotels are Hilton and/or Wyndham just because they show up frequently on priceline. But until someone actually books one of these hotels...there's not enough clues for me to figure out what they are.

OK hotwire people, need your help. Looking to book WDW in late August. A 4* hotel shows up on certain dates for $69 and says "Customer Favorite". At one time, a comment said it is across from Downtown Disney. So I'm thinking Wyndham or Hilton. Not sure any of the others could be considered 4*. Royal Plaza? Now, here's the dig. On other dates (in the same time period) a 4* hotel shows up for $68, but this time there is no "Customer Favorite" icon. Both hotels have identical icons...rest, pool, gym, business, etc. Either this rules out the Wyndham, or it's hotwire playing with us, since that hotel has tennis and a spa. SO...are they two different hotels or the same? I tried deleting cookies and get the same thing. Anyone care to comment on what's going on?
