Dolphin i.d. for teacher rate?

[Teacher510]

My friend asked me about what i.d. is required at check-in at the Dolphin to confirm the teacher rate. Is a picture part of the requirement? I haven't used this discount since 2002 so I couldn't remember. Thanks!

Without actual experience, I would think proof that the guest is the eligible person would be required - whatever proof that one is a teacher (id card?, pay stub?), plus proof that one is that person (driver's license?)?

I showed a pay stub and driver's license.

When we stayed there in July '07, I had booked our room with the teacher discount. During booking, I was told to bring my I.D. Well when we actually got there, I forgot all about the teacher discount we were using & just sent DH in to check us in. They never asked him for anything.

It wasn't till later that night that I remembered & DH said they never asked him for anything at check-in.

I showed a pay stub b/c my district collects our IDs at the end of the year (they give us access to the building electronically). That was all he needed to see at the Dolphin.

How great of a discount is this rate at the dolphin?

Its an UNBELIEVEABLE discount!!! Our last 2 trips to WDW we stayed at the Dolphin(WE LOVE IT!)with a teacher's discount. You really can't beat the price for the hotel AND location!

Do you have to book directly through the Swan/Dolphin or can you book through Disney reservations? Can you still book a package or do you have to do a hotel only reservation?

Is it crowded in the summer? I've always wondered about taking advantage of that discount. Also, can you use on any type of room or does it just apply to standard rooms?

I called the Dolphin directly to get the discount. I just booked the room and
bought tickets when I got down there. We were not asked for any ID at
check-in, although the person I made the reservation with said to bring one. When you know the dates you want to go there, call and ask if the
teacher rate is available because it isn't always available. Just like the birthday promotion (can't combine it with the Teacher discount). I tried to book a free room for my birthday, but there wasn't one available at the Swan
or Dolphin on that date.
