Disney4me Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Located within the Epcot Resort Area, the iconic Swan and Dolphin hotels are a comfortable walk from World Showcase in Epcot. The Swan and Dolphin Causeway During the Food and Wine Classic There are some hidden gem eats and drinks to be found in its restaurants and bars. And it’s also the setting for one of our favorite Disney fall events — the Swan and Dolphin Food and Wine Classic! (Read all about what you can expect at this year’s event here!) The Swan and Dolphin has been undergoing a major renovation recently. Rooms have been renovated, and the massive meeting space has been overhauled as well. The final move in the $140 million (!!!) project is a transformation of the Dolphin’s lobby space. Artist’s Rendering of New Walt Disney World Dolphin Lobby While the work will modernize and transform the (admittedly tired) lobby, with lots of new lighting and completely new decor, the lobby’s iconic dolphin fountain will remain. When the space reopens this fall, it will include two new food and beverage outlets. A new bar and lounge will offer a place for relaxing and meet ups, with seating for up to 150. The Dolphin will also be adding a new quick service stop.

And here’s a first look at the brand new, yet-to-be-named grab-and-go location!

It’s important to note that the hotel’s lobby is still open to guests during the renovation, so no worries about navigating the hotel for that Shula’s advance dining reservation. In addition to the lobby bar and new quick service offering, the reno doubles the amount of seating in the lobby area, making it a great place to meet, cool off, hang out, or people watch.
