Hotwire Hotel: 4* Orlando (Universal Orlando - I-Drive North) Crowne Plaza Universal

[lopezca5]

Hi,

Looking for assistance on looking for a hotel in Orlando 08/22/11 - 08/26/11, preferably in the Universal or SeaWorld areas with modern/nice accomodations and a nice pool.

Hotwire has:

4-star in Universal for $69 per night

Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, Laundry Facilities (self-service), High-Speed Internet Access (extra charge may apply), Golf Nearby, Spa Services

4-star in SeaWorld for $61 per night

Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, Laundry Facilities (self-service), High-Speed Internet Access (extra charge may apply)

Does anyone have any idea what these hotels might be?

Also, my sister did priceline, 4-star, universal area, and she got the Crowne Plaza with a $50 bid (I think it is closer to a 3-star resort). Any recommendations?

Thanks a million

Welcome to Betterbidding. :)

The 4* Universal is a possible match for the Crowne Plaza; the Seaworld 4* is a possible match for the Westin.

Did you want to use PRICELINE?

Please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches, and it would be greatly appreciated if you could post your sister's Crowne Plaza win as a separate thread.

that sounds about right, so the seaworld 4* is the better option .... also interested in PRICELINE if you have any guidance. thanks a million once more, trying to book an anniversary trip!

With HOTWIRE you can take a guess as to the hotel being offered (as per above)... with PRICELINE you need to be willing to accept any hotel in the zone at the star rating (or higher) that you select. If you want to try PRICELINE, let us know the zone(s), minimum star rating and maximum bid you're willing to accept... we'll then be able to suggest a strategy for you to follow.

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