Websites with no cancellation fees for booking Universal Hotel

Hi

Just wondering if you can offer any reputable website for booking 1 night at a Universal Hotel with free cancellation?

I already have a night booked via Booking.com with free cancellation, just looking at potentially moving my date but they don't have the room type I have booked (kids suite) on any other date during my holiday.

Have found it on other sites, but they have cancellation fees.

I usually book with Universal direct. If you have revolut or a currency card with USD on it then you can pay using that. Free cancellation and their refunds usually take about 5-7 days to come back to you. I've had so many that I've booked and cancelled over the last year I'm surprised i'm not blacklisted!

I actually emailed universal to ask about cancellation as I wasn’t 100% sure but they weren’t clear either not sure if it was wrong dept. Is it def 100% free?
Travel republic sometimes is competitive just check their cancellation terms

Looks like you have to book a minimum of 4 nights and I only want 1

I’ve just booked 4 nights with Agoda with free cancellation. Didn’t need to pay a deposit either.

I've booked 1 nighters (have to pay full amount) and i've booked multi nights (deposit only) and have had them all refunded when cancelled with no issues. But if you're looking for a guarantee then booking.com usually has free cancellation rates available and i believe travel republic has low deposits so you may only lose like £15 or something like that.

I always book directly with Loews. They take a one night deposit but it is refundable, there is no minimum nights.

Odd, perhaps I was looking at a package page - I have just managed to book 1 night with kids suite via universal for the night I wanted to move to.

Checked and it is free cancellation as long as you cancel at least 5 days before your stay 👍

Thanks for the help xx
