Thanks for solving the mystery! It must be the refurbishment - the website would let me make reservations for November (which, unfortunately, does me no good), but not October. I'll make...
-
Does Bistro de Paris still take reservations only 30 days out? I thought that might have changed since they're now on the dining plan. I just tried to book there for October on Disney's website,...
-
The Dolphin is much bigger (1500 rooms vs. 850) and more bustling, with a larger and more impressive lobby, more interesting architecture, more shops, more restaurants (and better restaurants), while...
-
Thanks for all the responses!
-
The Swan and Dolphin are also in the Epcot resort area, and are great for adults. They generally have fewer children than the Disney-operated resorts, and the dining options are a bit more...
-
Any thoughts on this spot? I almost never do counter service for dinner, but this next trip is focused on my sister, who badly needs a break from 8 months of dealing with her husband's very serious...
-
Thanks for the answer. There goes that scheme.
-
My sister is a very early riser while I am, well, not. Can she take my ticket with her into a park and use it to get fast-passes for both of us, even if my ticket has not yet been run through the...
-
Thanks for that report, Dixie! I am looking forward to it.
-
On the convention point - in more stays at the Dolphin than I can count (more than 20, at least) I have only seen an amenity closed because of a convention once - when one of the smaller pool areas...
-
I just booked another return trip to the Dolphin a few days ago - I've stayed there many, many times over the years. The Dolphin is my favorite hotel at WDW. The location is fantastic, and you can...
-
That's good to know. I'm more interested in the flowers and displays than in the activities, so hopefully things will be extra pretty.
-
Thanks for the helpful replies. Both Via Napoli and Saana look interesting. I see there's a new Mexican restaurant at Epcot, too.
-
Just booked a last-minute trip to WDW at the end of February, and scrambling to book my ADRs. While I used to go nearly every year, this is my first trip since Oct. 2008. I'll probably do a mix...
-
I will be at WDW the weekend before the Flower and Garden Festival begins, leaving late on March 1. Will any (or even most?) of the special flowers and topiaries be on display by then? I...
-
This is really a great discount, but you may need to be persistent when you check in (and again when you check out) to insure that the front desk staff has applied the Intercot discount, rather than...
-
The Disney gift cards are a good solution for you. You can get these Disney gift cards at the Disney shop in the Swan, or once you get in the parks. They look like credit cards, except they have...
-
I would not consider the Dolphin to have a "food court." It does have a fairly inexpensive, all-day cafeteria for quick meals (Picabu), but it is definitely a cut above most food courts. In...
-
The Dolphin is physically closer to the Yacht Club. They are side-by side, on the same side of the lake. However, as a practical matter, it is a shorter walk to the Yacht Club from the Swan, since...
-
I meant to say you can't charge things in the parks or other resorts to your room on your room key. However, if you are staying at the Swan, you can charge anything you purchase (meals, etc.) at the...
-
The Swan or Dolphin would be a great choice - I've been staying there (mostly at the Dolphin, but occassionally at the Swan) for many, many years, and this is by far my favorite place to stay at...
-
The number of stops at other hotels from the Swan or Dolphin varies based on the time of year, time of day, expected crowds, etc. In the old days, you did stop at all of the Epcot resorts, which...
-
Just try to avoid weekends. We were there mid-to-late Friday afternoon in early October, and there were no lines (or very, very, short lines) at the food and wine booths. That Friday night was...
-
I tried the Mandara Spa at the Dolphin on my trip earlier this month, and really enjoyed it. I had "the Ultimate Pedicure" one day, which was very nice, and left my feet very happy after several...
-
By the way - the Dolphin and Swan are my favorite hotels at WDW. I just came back from as stay at the Dolphin last week. You can't go wrong there.
