Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Universal cost?
Budget hotel prices in Universal vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
When is the most affordable time to visit Universal?
The most affordable time to visit Universal, Indiana, is generally during the off-peak seasons, specifically in late autumn or early spring. During these periods, you'll typically find lower prices on accommodation and fewer crowds, making for a more relaxed and budget-friendly trip.

For solo travellers, visiting in November (excluding Thanksgiving week) or March and April (avoiding spring break periods) often yields the best value. The weather can be a bit cooler, but this means you can enjoy the natural beauty of the area, like the nearby Shades State Park or Turkey Run State Park, without the summer rush. Many local businesses might offer off-season deals on lodging, and you'll find it easier to secure reservations for activities or dining without premium pricing.

Families looking to save money should consider late September or early October. While still pleasant, the summer holidaymakers have departed, leading to reduced rates for larger cabin rentals or family-friendly resorts. This time of year also offers lovely autumnal scenery, great for outdoor activities like hiking and exploring the covered bridges that are a hallmark of the region.
How can I save on a budget hotel in Universal with Expedia?
There are plenty of ways to save on a budget hotel in Universal. Unlock our lowest prices by joining One Key™, Expedia's travel rewards program. It's free and easy to sign up, and you can access member perks too. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. If you're feeling spontaneous, be sure to check for last-minute deals.
What free activities should we do in Universal?
In Universal, Indiana, budget-conscious travellers, particularly families, can enjoy several free activities that offer both relaxation and engagement with nature. The main attraction, Universal's scenic beauty, provides ample opportunities for cost-free enjoyment.

Families could start by exploring the numerous walking trails that wind through the area. These trails vary in difficulty, making them suitable for all ages and fitness levels. Children will enjoy spotting local wildlife, such as various bird species, and the changing landscape offers beautiful backdrops for photographs, creating lasting memories without spending a penny.

Another excellent free activity is picnicking by the lake. Universal boasts several picturesque spots great for laying out a blanket and enjoying a packed lunch from home, saving on restaurant costs. The serene environment provides a peaceful setting for families to unwind and connect, and kids can amuse themselves with simple outdoor games.

For those interested in local culture and history, a visit to the historic covered bridges in the surrounding county is a must. These architectural marvels are free to view and photograph, offering a glimpse into the region's past.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Universal as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Universal for you.
