    Enjoyed proximity to parks. Probably would not stay again. Older complex, on arrival sheets were soiled or stained had to have changed. Same evening roach on coffee in the room. Room appeared clean otherwise. Ice machine on our hall did not work throughout our stay. Very long way to elevators.

    This is a wonderful place to stay and we loved it but we keep getting missed for room service we had room service 2 days of our 8 day stay. Just inconvenient when we need to get towels every evening after the day at the park.

    Best help during checkin and parking

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    We have stayed here several times and keep coming back.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Be prepared to wait for the bus to commute to the parks. If it is raining, the water transport will not be in operation. The carpet in the hallway is faded and we had water damage to our bathroom door and to the side of the shower.

    Got upgraded to a fireworks view room. Sat out on the balcony every night and watched the fireworks from Epcot

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Everyone was amazing from valet, bellmen and front desk

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Never disappointed when I stay here

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The Dolphin is always such a great experience. The rooms are small but we always get a balcony room which gives us amazing views. It's nice to have the market downstairs and the boats and walkways to Epcot and Hollywood Studios. This is definitely one of my favorite hotels to stay in while at Disney.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    This was our 4th time at The Swan and Dolphin in the last year! Great location! Friendly staff!
