Hi!  I was wondering if the Universal Property Resorts ever come up on the Hotwire Hot Rates?  I'm looking to go to Universal Jan 16-19.  Is it worth looking for those hotels or should I just take a deal that's there now?  Any advice on Universal property hotels? Has anyone had luck?  Thanks!!

Thanks for your help.  If I go through Hotwire I will probably do the original $73/night 4* with the guess of Doubletree.  Going to post a separate post with question about Universal resorts.  Will let you know what I ultimately do.

Update: I also found these:

The crossed out price says $137 per night and has an 65% recommended rating.

Thoughts??

I'm looking to stay under $100 per night before any taxes or fees if possible.  I'm willing to take a chance if it means maybe getting a better hotel.  I was going to book the Doubletree before I decided to look into hotwire so I'm fine with it if I end up with it but wanted to take my best shot at possible better hotel and best outcome would be a Universal property.  I also was only looking at Universal Resort Area but then realized that there is also the Universal Orlando - I -drive North area.  Should I include that?  Would Universal properties be there, too?

Thanks again for all this help.  It is super appreciated!

Ok, thanks that's what I was questioning.  I was hoping to try and get a Universal hotel like Sapphire Falls.  Any ideas if there is a better time to look for January?  Or even advice on how to get a Universal hotel.  I would also do Cabana Bay.  Any info on what to look for for that hotel?  I know nothing is guaranteed but before I book I would like to get my best shot at a Universal property hotel.  Thanks!!

Hi!  I am new to using Hotwire and trying to ID a hotel in the Universal Resort Area.  I used this site's Easy View tab to get the full amenities.  Any help would be appreciated!
