Radisson Lake Buena Vista has been reported with this amenitie combo so this could be a possibility.

But i would like to add that this hotel has been around for some time so i feel a bit unsure with the 200+ reviews only. Holiday Inn on Hotel Plaza Blvd could also be an option here. But this is just speculation from my side.

I'm sorry for my vague answer. But with an overall satisfaction at 4.5/5 in this area am i sure that quality isn't an issue with this hotel.

Please use the site's HOTWIRE link, and let us know how it goes or if you need any additional help with your stay.

I am also thinking about bidding at priceline for 3.5 or 4 star hotels during that period. (seems you get more discount with priceline )

Not sure which one would be better. Any suggestion between hotwire and priceline for orlando hotels?

PRICELINE is usually a little cheaper then HOTWIRE... but HOTWIRE lets you know the amenities shown before your purchase and/or enables you to take an educated guess as to the property (and therefore location) you may receive. So which is better depends upon your needs for the stay... is the lowest price the most important aspect of this trip OR do you want to ensure the hotel has certain amenities and/or have a guess as to what you may receive before your purchase.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it from there.

I tried to purchase the above mentioned property today but it is no longer available for my dates (05/08/11-- 05/13/11).

So went to Priceline bidding. Got Rosen Plaza, 3.5* (Seaworld- I drive) for 50 per night. I have seen others got it for $45 or less in April. But all my bids below 50 were rejected for 3.5* in that area.

I guess it is a good deal. (Only thing I don't like is that they charge for internet ).
