Hotwire Hotel: 4* Orlando (SeaWorld-Convention Center) Peabody

[Autumn96]

Ok.. I can only find one hotel listed as a 4 - Star for this area, the Peabody, is this correct?

I've used priceline before, never hotwire.

amenities:

Fitness, pool, restaurants, business, internet, tennis

$83 per night 6/11 - 6/19

I know the rack rates.. I haven't searched for better rates. Is this a good deal?

TIA

This is a match for the Peabody so that would be our best guess (see the comments at the top of the Hotwire Hotel List.

Rates directly from the hotel website are nearly $200/nite for this stay so, if correct, it would seem like a pretty good deal (i didn't try breaking up the stay to see if the rate changed at all)

Please use this HOTWIRE link to begin any purchases you make.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

I didn't know breaking up the stay might change the rates.. I'll try that too.

I will remember to use the link too... I'll let you know if I decide to take it.

Thank you..

After spending the day searching for good airfare, I cut down the dates due to airfare was half the price if I left 2 days later.. I just added 2 days to the end of my stay. I will be staying at Disney's Port Orleans FQ from 6/19 now to 7/3.

So my new dates for Hotwire are 6/13-6/19:

The change in dates didn't effect the price.. still $83 for a 4*

I did get the Peabody.

I did many searches (I was assuming it was the Peabody) and the lowest average nightly room rate I could find for my dates was $133.70 (Hotels.com), so I was very satisfied with getting it at $83. It doesn't seem too kid-friendly for my dd(10), but I figure she'll have 2 weeks at a Disney Resort afterwards, and the Peabody does look like a beautiful hotel.

Glad to hear it went smoothly and you received the hotel you were expecting.

Please note that we have our own link to HOTWIRE (provided above as well)... please use it for any future hotwire purchases you make.

Enjoy your stay.

Actually, I believe I clicked on the word HOTWIRE.. your link in your post below my first post. I did go back and forth several times (timed out).. but I'm pretty sure that was how I accessed it at the time of purchase.

Do you not get credit from the savingsbarn.com site? I thought you did.. I hope I didn't do it that way.

I will remember to go through the links here in the future. I might be hotwire-ing a rental car if I can get better rates than the codes I'm using now.

Thank you for this site.. The information is invaluable!!
