Disney revealed pricing for its new, highly anticipated Star Wars hotel on Wednesday - and the cost to immerse yourself in a galaxy far, far away for a few days will not come cheap.
The Disney World-based hotel Galactic Starcruiser is essentially a cruise ship set in space, with the pricing to match. The company says it’s the “most immersive Star Wars story ever created,” and to partake you may have to shell out $6,000 for two nights.
The hotel, which opens in spring 2022, is billed by Disney as a “revolutionary new two-night experience where you and your group will embark on a first-of-its-kind Star Wars adventure that’s your own.”
Despite being on dry land, the pricing is similar to the model of Disney’s cruise ships at sea: a set price for a multi-day journey, with entertainment, food and beverages included.
The company revealed sample cabin rates for the hotel on Wednesday: For a two-night stay, it costs $4,809 for two guests in a cabin, $5,299 for three guests (two adults and one child) and $5,999 for four guests (three adults, one child).
So what does $6,000 get you in space?
According to Disney, that pricing covers an “ongoing, immersive and interactive entertainment, where choices determine your experience,” your meals (excluding alcohol) and admission to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, the home of the Star Wars-themed land Galaxy’s Edge.

Sorry,no sale...not even at $6.00. Disney is dead to me...that’s what happens when you side with Maoists.
Stupid is as stupid does.
They charge that price because people are willing to pay it. When bookings fall off the price will drop, but in 50 years so far the bookings and the prices have only gone up.
The worst part of the experience is that you’ll be surrounded by others people who were also stupid enough to pay $6k to hang out with you.
Ditto.

It’s basically an on-going mystery dinner theatre experience, so it takes lots of actors.
So it’s not insane to charge this.
Just not for me.
After a stay at such a privileged motel, they will be humming, Is That All There Is?
IOW, you’re saying, “ ya can’t fix stupid” Or as Mark twain lamented, “ its a wonder a fool and his money ever got together in the first place”? Or was that Groucho marx??
Regards,
$6000 a night? I think Walt is spinning in his freezer what his company became...
Compared to the cost of a vacation at WDW if you just booked one as a guest we not only paid for our timeshare, we made money off of it. We sold it for the same 2000 dollars we paid for it before we left America for Spain.
Timeshares are a massive ripoff unless you know how to game the system. We knew and we had a lot of great vacations in Orlando.
-—$5,999 for four guests (three adults, one child)
3 adults and 1 child???
Decent people should not support Disney in any manner.
If you have small children in your life, rent the pre-21st century content from the library.
You must have had a good place to exchange. Try to exchange a june week at a west Virginia ski resort for disney.. or a February week in Williamsburg.. all bought on the promise of exchanges “ around the world and disney” anytime of year. Lol.
Child over 13 pays full price?
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
"What's the price for one adult and three kids?"
