The hotel

Next to the Walt Disney World Dolphin and the Swan Reserve, you’ll be wowed by what’s on offer across these three resorts.

When it comes to fun-filled adventure, you’re just a short stroll from Disney’s Boardwalk and within walking distance of EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios. When you're not spending those early mornings and late evenings in the park, there's a waterslide, a kids’ club, games on the beach, and even mini-golf nearby to keep the family entertained, all in the heart of the most magical place on earth.

We checked in at the Swan for 10 days on November 18, 2023 at about 10:30 am. Since we had also booked a room for other family members we checked them in early afternoon. Their room was immediately available. It had a king bed with extra sink outside the main bath. Check-in time was actually 4 pm so we started the wait for our room. It wasn't ready at 4 pm. We checked again around 4:30 pm and it still wasn't ready. Now we began to ask questions and were told that the room wasn't ready since they had many people who had just checked out and staff had not cleaned all of the rooms yet. We waited a while longer and returned to the desk again. Same comment made and I inquired as to how long of a delay we could realistically expect. The employee told us that at the very latest our room would be ready by MIDNIGHT!!!! We were finally given a room but it didn't have the extra bathroom sink outside the main bath. Finally a manager stepped in to help.We had to accept queen beds instead of a king bed in order to get a room that we would accept. It was now after 5 pm and we had initially checked in at 10:30 am. The manager did give my husband some Marriott points due to the problems we encountered with check-in. Read less

Don’t sleep on this elegant yet family-friendly option. The walking distance to Boardwalk and Epcot can’t be beat for the price. No hotels within walking distance of Epcot can touch the Swan and Dolphin in terms of price, and honestly we still felt the Disney Magic especially with the holiday decor, irrespective of what other reviews may say.

We loved the lobby and public areas, it felt so elegant. The rooms are smaller but super comfy with a light, airy feel - and the beds were the best we slept on our whole trip, better than Loews at Universal. The pool grotto area and waterslide were huge hits. Beware that the swan paddle boats close up earlier than advertised. Read less

Room was not what I expected. The bed was supposed to be queen sized and was not. It was more of a full. The coffee maker in the room was piece of junk and we ended up having to spend extra money on coffee. The bathroom was very small and barely big enough for one person. The parking was way too expensive and the room had a funny smell to it. We… Read more

The Swan is centrally located with easy access to The Boardwalk & Epcot! Recently renovated spacious rooms with great dining options to include the recently added Walt Disney Reserve with spectacular rooftop views. Pamper yourself at the amazing Mandara Spa.

Definitely not a Westin! This place is not the caliber of Marriott. The front desk person kept telling me the room was renovated with ripped carpet and stained. I really do not like being lied to . This place is totally disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!
