I have stayed at these properties for the past 6 years for different business functions multiple times a year and I would say within the last 2+ years both have the heavenly beds, both have under gone some nice overall renovations. I happen to like the club level better at the Dolphin and I like the Dolphin overall a bit more, just from the way they treat you.

Dolphin and Swan - No More Club Lounges?
I was just told by a reservation agent at the Dolphin that the club level lounges at the Swan and Dolphin will be closing by April. I looked at a few dates online after april 1 and did not see any club level rooms. Has anyone else heard this?

Disney Dophin or Swan
Does anyone know of any discount rates or sites that have a good rate for the Disney Swan or Dolphin? My future in laws are coming here from Canada and they want to go there. They want to go Thurs Nov 24 - Sun Nov 26. The cheapest rate is $250 a night

I quickly checked at SPG.COM for stay between 11/23 - 11/27 just now, and lowest rate was $209/night (Dolphin, non-refundfable)
If you are AAA member, the rate is $184.50/night (Dolphin, cancellable before 11/18 6pm). Even if you are not, becoming AAA will cost you only $50/year.

You might want to suggest that they sign up for the Swan and Dolphin's emailed newsletter. They can sign up at:
www.swandolphin.com
I get special offers from them all the time. Just today I got the following:
Perhaps then they'll get an offer for a sweet November deal a little latter this year? They could book the cheapest no-penalty cancel-able rate now, and then keep checking for lower rates or hope for an email special that they could trade-down to later?
Good Luck!

I saw this posted on Mousesavers.com - and it reminded me that "50% Off Regular Rates awards allow you to redeem 1000 Starpoints and stay at the Swan or Dolphin for up to five consecutive nights for 50% off the regular rate". Might be worth it when no other discounts are available.
