We will be staying at the Dolphin in Feb. I called the other day to check on the progress. The renovation is now up to the 8th floor. I asked to have a request put on my reservation for a renovated room. The lady I spoke with seemed to think I would be able to get my request without any problem. She could not give me a date of when the entire renovation would be complete. I would call and add a request to your ressie just in case.
